This theoretical framework is combined with close textual analysis of the films in order to explore the visual and narrative mechanisms that the three Bourne movies starring Matt Damon use in order to, first, capture the protagonist’s lost sense of self and, second, construct a new cosmopolitan hero for the mainstream. As I argue, Bourne’s unrelentless journey across borders encapsulates some of the paradoxes of our highly mobile times, while also calling attention to certain shortcomings and inadequacies of the ‘national paradigm’, to make sense of an individual’s existence within contemporary societies. 000148082 536__ $$9info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/DGA/H12$$9info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MINECO/FFI2010-15312 000148082 540__ $$9info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess$$aby-nc-nd$$uhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/es/ 000148082 590__ $$a2.043$$b2016 000148082 591__ $$aTRANSPORTATION$$b13 / 33 = 0.394$$c2016$$dQ2$$eT2 000148082 591__ $$aGEOGRAPHY$$b25 / 78 = 0.321$$c2016$$dQ2$$eT1 000148082 592__ $$a1.877$$b2016 000148082 593__ $$aDemography$$c2016$$dQ1 000148082 593__ $$aSociology and Political Science$$c2016$$dQ1 000148082 593__ $$aGeography, Planning and Development$$c2016$$dQ1 000148082 655_4 $$ainfo:eu-repo/semantics/article$$vinfo:eu-repo/semantics/acceptedVersion 000148082 7102_ $$13004$$2345$$aUniversidad de Zaragoza$$bDpto.
