Comparison with the novel
As a result of the divergence of Fancher of the novel, numerous rewrites before and during the filming of the movie, and Ridley Scott never having read the novel on which it is based, the film differed significantly of its original inspiration. Some of the themes of the novel that were minimized or completely eliminated are: fertility / sterility of the population, religion, media, the uncertainty that Deckard is human, and pets against synthetic and real emotions.
Philip K. Dick refused an offer of $ 400,000 writing a novelization of the screenplay for Blade Runner, saying: "[I] told the cheapo novelization would have to appeal to the audience of twelve years of age" and "[it] would probably have been a disaster for me artistically." He added: "This insistence on my part to get the original novel and not do novelizationhey were furious. Finally recognized that there was legitimate reason for reissuing the novel, but they cost money. It was a victory not only contractual obligations, but from theoretical principles. "In the end, Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? Was reprinted as a tie-in with the poster the film as a cover and the original title in parentheses under the title of Blade Runner.
The producers of the film prepared for the projection special effects some rough cuts of Philip K. Dick, shortly before his death in early 1982. Despite his skepticism known in Hollywood, in principle, became very excited about the movie. He said: "I saw a segment of Douglas Trumbull's special effects for Blade Runner on KNBC-TV news. I recognized it immediately. It was my inner world. They caught it perfectly. "It also approved the script for the film, saying:" After I finished reading the script, I got the book and looked through it. The two are mutually reinforcing, so that someone that started with the novel that the movie and enjoy someone who started the film would enjoy the novel. "

Production
One of the filming locations is Bradbury Building
in Los Angeles, California.
The interest in adapting the novel by Philip K. Dick 's Do Androids Dream Electric Sheep? developed shortly after its 1968 publication. According to Dick, director Martin Scorsese was interested in filming the novel, but never an option purchase. Producer Herb Jaffe is optioned in early 1970, but Dick was not impressed with the script: "Robert Jaffe, who wrote the script, flew down here to Orange County. I said then that it was so bad that I wanted to know if he wanted me to beat him up there at the airport or wait until we went to my apartment. "Hampton Fancher's script was sent in 1977.
Producer Michael Deeley became interested in the project and convinced the director Fancher Ridley Scott to use it to create his first American film. Scott had rejected the project, but after leaving the slow production of Dune, I wanted a project faster rate to take your mind off the recent death of his older brother. He joined the project on February 21, 1980, and managed to push up funding Filmways promised $ 13 million to U.S. $ 15 million. Fancher script focused more on environmental issues and less on issues of humanity and faith, which weighed heavily in the novel. Scott wanted to change. Found a cinematic treatment Fancher, William S. Burroughs for Alan E. novel Nourse s' The Bladerunner (1974), entitled Blade Runner (a movie). Scott liked the name, so Deeley obtained the rights to the titles. Eventually he hired David Peoples to rewrite the script, Fancher and left the job on December 21, 1980, on the subject, but later returned to contribute additional rewrites.
Having invested over $ 2.5 million in pre-production, as the date of commencement of principal photography was coming, Filmways withdrew financial support. Within ten days, Deeley obtained $ 21.5 million in funding through a tripartite agreement between the company Ladd (via Warner Bros.), Hong Kong, producer Sir Run Run Shaw, and Tandem Productions.
Philip K. Dick began to worry that no one had reported the production of the film, which added to the distrust of Hollywood. After Dick criticized an early version of script for Hampton Fancher in an article written for Los Angeles Select TV Guide, the study sent Dick David Peoples rewrite. Although Dick died shortly before the release of the film, he was satisfied with the script rewritten, and with a reel of special effects test of twenty minutes was projected for him when he was invited to the studio. Dick excited after the screening of Ridley Scott that the world created for the film was exactly as he had imagined. The film was dedicated to Dick.
Another shot of Bradbury Building.
Blade Runner has many profound similarities to Fritz Lang's Metropolis, including including a built urban environment, where the rich live literally on top of workers, dominated by a huge buildinghe Stadtkrone Tower in Metropolis and the building Tyrell in Blade Runner. Special effects supervisor David Dryer uses frames Blade Runner Metropolis when lining up shots of miniature construction.
Ridley Scott credit Nighthawks Edward Hopper painting and French science fiction comic magazine Mtal Hurlant (Heavy Metal), which the artist Moebius contributed stylistic sources mood. It was also based on the landscape of "Hong Kong in a very bad day" and the industrial landscape of his home in a single Once in the northeast of England. Scott hired as a conceptual artist Syd Mead, who, like Scott, was influenced by Mtal Hurlant. Moebius was offered the opportunity to help in pre-production of Blade Runner, but he declined so he could work on Ren Laloux animated film Les temps du Matres, a decision later regretted. Lawrence G. Paull (Production Designer) and David Snyder (art director) realized sketches of Scott and Mead. Richard Douglas Trumbull and special effects monitored Yuricich of the film. Director of photography of Blade Runner was launched on 09 March 1981 and ended four months later.
Casting the film proved problematic, especially for the lead role of Deckard. Screenwriter Hampton Fancher imagined by Robert Mitchum as Deckard, and wrote the dialogue with Mitchum character in mind. Director Ridley Scott and the producers of the movie "last month" to meet and discuss the role with Dustin Hoffman, who eventually departed for differences in vision. Harrison Ford was ultimately chosen for several reasons, including his role in Star Wars films, the interest of Ford in the history of Blade Runner, and conversations with Steven Spielberg, who was finishing In Search of the Lost Ark in time and strongly praised the work of Ford in the movie. According to production records, a long list of actors were considered for the role, including but not limited to, Gene Hackman, Sean Connery, Paul Newman Jack Nicholson, Clint Eastwood, Tommy Lee Jones, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Al Pacino and Burt Reynolds.
Casting the role of Rachel and Pris was also a challenge, a long series of screen tests were shot with numerous actresses auditions for roles. Morgan Paull, who played the role of Deckard during the screen tests with actresses auditioning for the role of Rachel, was elected as fellow Holden bounty hunter Deckard on the basis of their performances in the trials. A role that was not difficult to cast was Roy Batty: Ridley Scott Rutger Hauer issued without have known, based solely on performances in other films Hauer Scott had seen. Joe Pantoliano, who later played the role of Cypher in the Blade Runner inspired The Matrix, was considered for the role of Sebastian.
In 2006, Ridley Scott was asked "Who is the biggest pain ass you've ever worked with? "He replied:" It must be Harrison … I forgive him, because now I get on with it. Now it's become charming. But he knows a lot, that's the problem. When we work together was my first film and I was the new kid on the block. But we made a good movie. "Ford said that of Scott in 2000: "I admire his work. We had a bad run, and I on him." More recently in 2006, Ford is reflected in the film production saying: "What I remember most of all when I see Blade Runner is not the 50 nights of shooting in the rain, but the voice … I was forced to work even for these clowns who came in writing one bad voiceover after another. "Ridley Scott confirmed in the summer of 2007 Total Film Harrison Ford that contributed to the Blade Runner Special Edition DVD, which has already made his interviews. "Harrison fully on board," said Scott.
Interpretation
Main article: Issues of Blade Runner
Despite appearing to be an action film, Blade Runner operates on multiple levels and dramatic narrative, but a great debt to the conventions of black cinema: the femme fatale, leading off (removed in later versions), cinematography, dark and gloomy, and the questionable moral outlook of the heron this case, extended to include reflections on the nature of his own humanity.
It is a science fiction movie to read and write, thematically involves the philosophy of religion and the moral implications of human mastery of genetic engineering in the context of classical Greek drama and arrogance, and is based on biblical images, as the flood Noah and the literary sources, like Frankenstein. Linguistically, the theme of mortality is subtly repeated in the chess game between Tyrell and Roy based on the famous immortal game of 1851, but Scott said that was a coincidence.
Dr. Tyrell polarizing window of his office to control power involves Sun as a god of the Corporation Tyrell.
Blade Runner explores the implications of technology for the environment and society to reach the past, literature, religious symbolism, classical dramatic, and the black cinema. This tension between past, present and future are reflected in the retrofitted future of Blade Runner, which is high-tech and gleaming in some areas and old but declined elsewhere. Ridley Scott interview in 2002, the journalist Lynn Barber in The Observer describes the film as "very dark, both literally and metaphorically, with a strangely masochistic feeling. "Director Scott said he" liked the idea of exploring the pain "following the death of his brother of skin cancer. "When I was sick, I often visited in London, and that was really traumatic for me."
An aura of paranoia permeates the film. Corporate power looms large, the police seem omnipresent, the probe vehicles and warning lights in buildings, and the consequences biomedical enormous power over the individual are the implications for replicating exploredspecially its programming. Control over the environment is described as taking place in large-scale, hand in hand with the absence of any natural life, with artificial animals to replace his late templates. This oppressive backdrop explains migration often referred to human beings aliens ("outside world") colonies. The dystopian themes explored in "Blade Runner" is one An early example of cyberpunk concepts in film expansion. Eyes are a recurring motif, as manipulate images, questioning reality and our ability to accurately perceive and remember.
These thematic elements provide an atmosphere of uncertainty for Blade runner theme of the examination of humanity. To replicating discovered, a test of empathy is used with a number of questions focused on the treatment of animalst seems to be a key element of humanity indicator "Someone." Replicants are juxtaposed with human characters who lack empathy, while replicating seem to show compassion and concern for Moreover, at the same time as the mass of humanity on the streets is cold and impersonal. The film goes so far as to cast doubt on whether Deckard is a human being, and forces the audience to reevaluate what it means to be human.
The question of whether Deckard is intended to be a human or a replicant has been an ongoing controversy since the release of the film. Both Michael Deeley and Deckard Harrison Ford wanted man, while Hampton Fancher preferred ambiguity. Ridley Scott has confirmed that in his view Deckard is a replicant. unicorn dream sequence is inserted into Deckard which coincides with the Director's Cut Gaff "farewell gift from an origami unicorn is seen by many as sample Deckard is a replicant like hooks could have access to Deckard's implanted memories. The interpretation that Deckard is a replicant is challenged by others who believe that unicorn shows images of the characters, whether human or replicant, share the same dreams and recognize their affinity or that the absence of a decisive response is crucial for the movie theme. The ambiguity and uncertainty inherent in the film and its textual richness, have allowed viewers to see from their perspective.
Reception
Blade Runner was released in 1290 theaters on June 25, 1982. That date was chosen by producer Alan Ladd, Jr., because of its blockbuster movies previous (Star Wars and Alien) had a similar opening date (May 25) in 1977 and 1979, so that the date of his "lucky day." However, the gross The first weekend was disappointing $ 6.15 million. An important factor in the film, rather poor performance at the box office was that its release coincided with other releases science fiction, like The Thing, Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, and, above all, the Extra-Terrestrial ET, which dominated the box office over the summer.
Critics film were polarized as some felt that the story had taken second place to special effects and was not action / adventure in the study were announced. Other acclaimed its complexity and predicted it would pass the test of time.
In the United States, a general criticism was its slow pace detracts from other strengths, Sheila Benson Los Angeles Times called it "crawler Blade," while Pat Berman in the State and Columbia Record described it as "science porn fiction. "Roger Ebert praised both the original and the Director's Cut version of Blade Runner's visual effects and therefore recommended, however, found human history and a clichd so thin. In 2007, on the release of The Final Cut, Roger Ebert somewhat revised his original opinion of the film and added it to your list of great films.

Cultural Influence
A number of flight control of the police with huge skyscrapers full of advertising. These effects are parameters that have influenced many later films of science fiction.
Although initially successful with the American public, the film was popular internationally and became a cult film. the film's dark style and futuristic design has served as a reference point and its influence can be seen in many later films of science fiction, anime, video games and television programs. For example, Ronald D. Moore and David Eick, the producer the re-imagination of Battlestar Galactica, Blade Runner have been cited as one of the major influences for the show. Blade Runner continues to reflect modern trends and concerns, and a growing number of films considered one of the greatest science fiction of all time. The film was selected for preservation in United States National Film Registry in 1993 and is frequently used in university courses. In 2007 she was named the second most visually influential film of all times by the Visual Effects Society.
Blade Runner is one of the sampled musical films of the 20th century and inspired the Grammy nominated song "More Human Than Human "by White Zombie.
Blade Runner has influenced adventure games such as the rise of the dragons, Snatcher, Beneath a Steel Sky and Flashback: The Quest for Identity, anime series Bubblegum Crisis, role-playing game Shadowrun, the first person shooter Perfect Dark, and the Union series of video games. The film is also cited as an important influence on Warren Spector, designer of the former computer game Deus, that both in its visual representation and shows evidence of the influence plot of the film. The look of the film (the dark, neon lights and hazy vision) is easier to make complicated backdrops, so it is an option popular for game designers.
Blade Runner was also the subject of parody, such as Blade Bummer comics crazy about comics, the villain of rubber by Steve Gallacci, and special episodes of Red Dwarf "Back To Earth".
Blade Runner Curse
Among the folklore that has developed around the film in recent years has been the belief that film was a curse to the companies whose logos are displayed prominently as product placement some scenes. While they were market leaders at the time, more than half of disastrous setbacks over the next decade. RCA, which once was a leader in U.S. consumer electronics and communications conglomerate, it was bought by the father of GE once in 1985 and dismantled. Atari, which dominated the home market video game when the movie came out never recovered from the recession next year in industry, and by the 1990s had ceased to represent more than just a brand, a large catalog of games and some legacy equipment. Atari today is a completely different society, using the name of the company first. Cuisinart also filed for bankruptcy in 1989 but lives on less than a new owner. The Bell System monopoly was broken that year, and most companies regional Bell operating result has since changed its name and merged back together and with other companies to form the new AT & T. Pan Am suffered the terrorist attack bombing and destruction of Pan Am flight 103 and after a decade of mounting losses, finally went bankrupt in 1991 with the fall in overseas travel caused by the Gulf War. Coca-Cola Company suffered losses during its introduction is not the New Coke in 1985, but soon regained its share market. His success continued Coca-Cola has made a number of exceptions to the curse of Blade Runner, which also appears in the film are logos for Budweiser, and the electronics company TDK, which continue to thrive in contemporary markets.
Future Noir
More information: black Future
Before principal photography of the film began, the magazine Cinefantastique commissioner Paul M. Sammon to write an article about Blade Runner's production which became the book Future Noir: The Making of Blade Runner (known as the "Bible" Blade Runner "by many fans of the film). The book is a chronicles the evolution of Blade Runner as a movie, and focuses on the policy set, especially experiences of British director with his first team American film, which producer Alan Ladd Jr. has said: "Harrison would not talk to Ridley and Ridley would not talk to Harrison. At the end of the session Ford was "willing to kill Ridley," said a colleague. They really have taken him if he had not spoken to him. "Future Noir is a brief biography sharing and others about their experiences in making Blade Runner, as well as numerous photographs of the production of the film, and preliminary sketches. Chapter cast was removed from the first edition, but is available online. A second edition of Future Noir was published in 2007.
Soundtrack
Main Article: Blade Runner (soundtrack)
The soundtrack by Vangelis Blade Runner is a dark melodic combination of classic composition and synthesizers reflecting futuristic film-noir retro-future envisioned by Ridley Scott. Vangelis, fresh from his Academy Award winning score for Chariots of Fire, composed and performed the music of his synthesizers. He also made use of various bells and the voices of collaborator Demis Roussos. Another memorable sound is the haunting tenor sax solo "Love Theme" by the UK saxophonist Dick Morrissey, who appeared in many of the albums of Vangelis. Ridley Scott also used "Memories of Green" album Vangelis "See You Later (an orchestral version of which Scott would wear on his person after the film To Watch Over Me).
Along with Vangelis compositions and ambient textures, the sound of the film also features a track by the Japanese landscape Nipponia Set ("Ogi No Mato 'or' The folding fan as a target "of the Nonesuch Records release" traditional vocal and instrumental music ") and track a harpist Gail Laughton (" Harp of the Ancient Temples "of Laurel Records).
Despite being well received by fans and acclaimed by critics and nominated in 1983 for a BAFTA and a Golden Globe best original score, and the promise of a soundtrack of Polydor Records at the end of the movie titles, the release of the game's official soundtrack recording was delayed for over a decade. There are two official versions of the music from Blade Runner. In light of the lack of a release of an album, the New American Orchestra recorded an adaptation orchestra in 1982, which bear little resemblance to the original. Some of the tracks on the film surface would be in 1989 on the development Vangelis: Themes, but not to the release of version 1992 of the Director's Cut that a significant amount of the film score to see commercial release.
These delays and reproductions resulted in the production of bootleg recordings over the years. One band of pirates appeared in 1982 in the science fiction conventions and became popular, given the delay in an official publication of the original recordings, and in 1993 "Off World Music, Ltd." created a pirate CD would be more extensive than the CD Vangelis officer in 1994. A record of "Gongo Records" features most of same material, but sound quality a bit better. In 2003, two other bootlegs appeared, the "Esper Edition", closely preceded by "Los Angeles: November 2019. The double disc "Esper Edition" combined tracks from the official version Gongo boot and the movie itself. Finally, "2019", always a single disc compilation of mostly ambient sound of the movie, filled with some sounds Westwood game Blade Runner.
A set of three CDs of music by Vangelis Blade Runner-related was released on December 10, 2007. Under the title Blade Runner Trilogy, the first CD contains the same tracks as the official launch of the soundtrack to 1994, the second CD contains original music from the film, and the third CD is composed of all new music by Vangelis, inspires, and in the spirit of the film.
