Over 35 years old and still effortlessly stylish and provocative, Ridley Scott’s ontological meditation on the nature of humanity is more prescient than ever – just ask Elon Musk. A symphony in neon-lit neo-noir, this sci-fi masterpiece and its impressive set design remain a testament to Scott’s uncompromising vision. Any recent viewing of the long-awaited sequel (Blade Runner 2049, the one with the Gos) demands a re-watch of the original theatrical version, if only because the glory days of miniatures and matt painting will be forever missed.
