Blade Runner Movie Notes

 -This movie projects what the future of humanity is going to look like

Replicant- human robots

Blade Runners- police hunting replicants

-the blade runners have a test used to provoke an. emotional response (allows them to determine who is a robot)

placed in 2019-futuristic buildings, flying cars, and advertisements

*the technology present in these cars is incredible (so far ahead of its time)

Replicant designed to copy humans in every way (struggle with the emotional aspect) 

-replicants have a 4 year lifespan

-are these replicants helpful or a hazard?

- these replicants were designed to be "more human than human"

-implanted memories

-Rachels memories are implanted from Tyrell's niece 

-snake skin, lady of the serpent, hits him and he chases after her, kills her

-Leon watches this happen and attempts to kill Deckart - "time to die"

-Rachel kills Leon and saves him (he promises not to harm her)

-intimacy develops between Rachel and Deckart (almost forceful and uncomfortable, she doesn't know how to express this feeling of intimacy)

-Pris - "I think therefore I am"

Sebastion: worked for Tyrells company, he has a degenerative disease, and he says to replicants "there is a little bit of me in you"

Roy: prodigal son, "I want more life father", crushes fathers skull

-BRADBURY BUILDING=Ray Bradbury 

-creepy, eerie toy shop= pinnochio reference

-pris hiding in plane sight

-Disturbing attack on Deckart, he shoots her and she dies (twitching like a bug)

-Roy shows up and breaks Deckart's fingers "one for Zora and one for Pris"

-We can start to see Roy die, he saves Deckart, infamous monologue from Roy

-repetition of "time to die"

-white bird flies up into the sky- heavens? his salvation?

- "its too bad she won't live but then again who does?"

-finds little silver unicorn
