SynopsisThe 1992 release of the "Director's Cut" only confirmed what the international film cognoscenti have know all along: Ridley Scott's Blade Runner, based on Philip K. Dick's brilliant and troubling SF novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep, still rules as the most visually dense, thematically challenging, and influential SF film ever made. Future Noir is the story of that triumph. The making of Blade Runner was a seven-year odyssey that would test the stamina and the imagination of writers, producers, special effects wizards, and the most innovative art directors and set designers in the industry. A fascinating look at the ever-shifting interface between commerce and the art that is modern Hollywood, Future Noir is the intense, intimate, anything-but-glamerous inside account of how the work of SF's most uncompromising author was transformed into a critical sensation, a commercial success, and a cult classic.

  • Great book

    A must have for any Blade Runner fan. I'd also recommend the 2017 3rd edition which has newer interviews and info on the Final Cut and BR 2049.

  • My favorite sci-fi movie.

    Full of interesting details of a film that was sorely underated when it was originally released. Ridley Scott made a classic that has withstood the test of time.
