Blade Runner: The Final Cut (Big Screen Classics)

Advertisement

BLADE RUNNER, based on the novel Do Androids Dream Of Electric Sheep? by science fiction master Philip K. Dick, is a haunting look at reality, memory and mortality set against the dystopian future of Los Angeles, 2019.

Rick Deckard (Harrison Ford) is a former Blade Runner, called out of retirement to hunt and K*ll four Replicants led by Roy Batty (Rutger Hauer). These human-like androids with superior strength and intellect have returned to earth on a killing spree, determined to meet their maker, Dr. Eldon Tyrell.

Deckard's investigation leads across the glittering heights and disintegrating depths of Ridley Scott's fantastically imagined metropolis; one filled with pyramids, enormous neon billboards, and spinner cars, amid unimaginable overcrowding and a constant deluge of acid rain.

This screening presents Ridley Scott's definitive "Final Cut" version of the film, released in 2007.

#54 on the BFI Sight and Sound 250 Greatest Films of All Time.
