Synopsis: 

The "No Treadstone Edition" is a version of Bourne Identity without all the Treadstone scenes. This makes the film a lot tenser than before because you're trying to figure out who Jason was before, and in the meantime, you're trying to find out who the bad guys are.

Intentions: 

This was a recreation of the u/sassmo edit on this film. I saw his post about it a long time ago, and I found it very fascinating. But I haven’t managed to finish due to work and other projects. However, now I have the time to come back and finish this fan edit.

Change List: 

All the scenes not involving Jason Bourne have been removed.
I added two deleted scenes.
I added a black-and-white filter during Jason's flashback scenes.

Additional Notes: 

This is the first project for which I added subtitles.

When editing this project, I was unsure which ending to use because I originally created a whole new ending that combined the alternate opening and ending to create a new experience. However, I changed my mind and decided to use the theatrical version instead, just in case anyone wants me to do the two sequels, The Bourne Supremacy and The Bourne Ultimatum, in the future where I remove all scenes that do not involve Jason Bourne.
