He wants to get out of the force, but is drawn back in when five "skin jobs", a slang term for replicants, hijack a ship back to Earth. The city that Deckard must search for his prey is a huge, sprawling, bleak vision of the future. This film questions what it is to be human, and why life is so precious.

The movie is based on the novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? by Philip K. Dick ]]> http://www.harrisonfordweb.com/bladerunner/archives/2005/08/summary.html http://www.harrisonfordweb.com/bladerunner/archives/2005/08/summary.html Sat, 20 Aug 2005 19:46:12 -0500 Photos Production Stills

Was added to the Library of Congress National Film Registry in 1993 Dustin Hoffman was Ridley Scott's original choice to play Deckard but the script rewites he insisted on made Scott re-evaluate his choice. Other actors considered for the role were Robert Mitchum, Gregory Peck, Tommy Lee Jones and Christopher Walken The ending that features Deckard and Rachel driving in the countryside contains unused footage from Stanley Kubrick's The Shining In the sequence where Deckard and Gaff approach police headquarters in a spinner, a model of the Millennium Falcon, disguised as a building, can be seen in the lower left corner of the frame. The model was a personal project of one of the film's model builders, and was used as a building at the last minute Blade Runner was given poor ratings by most critics in 1982, including Siskel & Ebert. In 1992, the two critics re-evaluated their attitudes toward the film and gave it two enthusiastic thumbs-up All the replicants are called by their names and the humans are called by their surnames. Rick Deckard is called by both his name and surname The question whether Deckard himself is a replicant or not has been a hot subject of discussion ever since the movie opened. Ridley Scott has said that he is, Harrison maintains he isn't; he's the human with whom the audience identifies. It can safely be argued that the story's moral and existential dilemmas come out much clearer if Deckard is a replicant, and this is the favored view in science fiction and art critic circles
