Paul Greengrass' The Bourne Ultimatum, starring Matt Damon (above), is the "British people's choice" for the Richard Attenborough Film Award for best British film. The public vote took place via 25 regional media outlets. As per The Guardian, Greengrass' thriller has been seen by more than 4 million moviegoers in the United Kingdom.
At the 2008 Oscar ceremony, The Bourne Ultimatum won three statuettes: best editing (Christopher Rouse), best sound editing, and best sound mixing.
Greengrass and Damon are supposed to rejoin forces on a fourth and final Bourne installment. A production date has yet to be announced.
Agreed. Small British films never get a chance to succeed, unless they have some big name attached to to them.
The People's Choice award always goes to the most successful film. So many good movies out there that didn't find their public go unnoticed and unrecognized by braindead masses. Sad.
Looking forward to the fourth installment of this great franchise.
