Runner Runner
It's been a while since I visited the prescient permarain of 2024 San Angeles in Ridley Scott's Meisterwerk, Blade Runner. I have the Final Cut on Blu Ray, along with the original (with Ford's droning voice-over) and the 'Director's Cut', casting aspersions on Deckard's humanity.
Now the BFI are taking the movie on a tour, remastered for modern theatres. When it hits Dukes at Komedia, as it will in early April, I'll be front and centre. With it's space-age noir, laconic antihero and haunting Vangelis soundtrack, this film deserves to be seen on the Big Screen. It's a timely reminder of what the Great Man was once capable of, before he started churning out pap like Exodus: Gods and Kings and the soul-less, I-hope-they-all-die The Counsellor.
Here's the BFI's trailer. Can't wait.
The harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph
