Documentary: Dangerous Days - Making Blade Runner:
A feature-length authoritative documentary revealing all the elements that shaped this hugely influential cinema landmark. Cast, crew, critics
and colleagues give a behind-the-scenes, in-depth look at the film - from its literary roots and inception through casting, production, visuals and special effects to its
controversial legacy and place in Hollywood history
1982 Theatrical Version:
This is the version that introduced U.S. movie-going audiences to a revolutionary film with a new and excitingly provocative vision of the
near-future. It contains Deckard/Harrison Ford's character narration and has Deckard and Rachel's (Sean Young) 'happy ending' escape scene
1982 International Version:
Also used on U.S. home video, laserdisc and cable releases up to 1992. This version is not rated, and contains some extended action scenes in
contrast to the Theatrical Version
1992 Director's Cut:
The Director's Cut omits Deckard's voiceover narration and removes the "happy ending" finale. It adds the famously-controversial "unicorn"
sequence, a vision that Deckard has which suggests that he, too, may be a replicant
Workprint Version:
This rare version of the film is considered by some to be the most radically different of all the Blade Runner cuts. It includes an altered
opening scene, no Deckard narration until the final scenes, no "unicorn" sequence, no Deckard/Rachel "happy ending," altered lines between Batty (Rutger Hauer) and his
creator Tyrell (Joe Turkell), alternate music and much more
