It's rich in symbolism and theme, a unique way to tell a story on screen for me when I saw it at that time (I was just 16). It paralized me. I wanted to know 'why' for every detail. I could write an essay on it (well I already did in school), but to cut 4000 words short, some interesting themes/symbolic elements include: paranoia, religion, genetic engineering/cloning, corporatism, environment, eyes and memories, death/immortality. Things that had not even crossed my mind at that age. It is one masterpiece of beautiful storytelling and imagery. It makes you think, re-evaluate your life, ask yourself questions. Fascinating film.Jessica Bellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10889900730906728317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3315861630765119669.post-4049504360601903582010-06-23T10:14:08.931+03:002010-06-23T10:14:08.931+03:00I have to ask how did Blade Runner influence you? ...I have to ask how did Blade Runner influence you?

(or something to that effect)<br /><br />He says, "Can't we do both?"<br /><br />I always had a hard time following "Blade Runner," as much as I loved the cast, the director, and even the author of the story that inspired the film.DiscConnectedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07013919800637508392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3315861630765119669.post-6644604557241936482010-06-23T00:46:03.400+03:002010-06-23T00:46:03.400+03:00Howdy, ALLIALLO ~
