Blade Runner documentary

Here is a BBC documentary about the making of the film ‘Blade Runner’. Everyone minus the apparently ashamed Harrison Ford and the very dead Philip K. Dick speak about the relative hell they had making the movie and the relatively content feeling they have with its current state (i.e. the so called director’s cut).

This movie lost Warner Bros. millions of dollars and as far as I know it is still out of print (which is probably a good thing as it was one of the first WB DVD releases which weren’t even better than a fresh VHS copy - ‘GoodFellas’ also [has/had] this problem).

Apparently Scott - who doesn’t make films this strong anymore - realises it was about the best work he has done and is fighting for a serious DVD release due within the year.
