Blade Runner (1982 film): actors and roles. Controversial reviews

At the premiere of "Blade Runner" (1982), the actors gathered rave reviews from the most severe critics. Each of them will remain a legend in world cinema.

Rutger Hauer

For the film “Blade Runner” (1982), the actors received their portion of fame and recognition in the film industry, but Rutger no longer needed any fame. At that time, the 38-year-old actor had already played dozens of major roles. The director relied on his extensive experience in the work.

In choosing a profession, the future actor inherited his father, a teacher of acting at a prestigious college. His mother was also a teacher, but she taught her students the art of drama. With such parents, it would be strange for a young man to think about some other profession, and he becomes an actor. Hauer turned out to be a very sought-after performer of roles and has been successfully acting in films for almost half a century.

His acting experience reaches 49 years on the big screen. He made his debut at the age of 24, but even then the directors and colleagues on the set in the work predicted a great future for him.

The Rigger Descent

Rutger Hauer was born in 1944, he is a native of the Netherlands, grew up there and partially received education. He honed his acting skills at the prestigious Swiss Theater Institute. But the first introduction to this profession under the guidance of his parents made in childhood. Very young, he participated in performances on the stage.

Now he is already 73 years old, he remains an example of a successful and stable actor in the cinema.

Harrison ford

As a successful actor, he has been known for 44 years, such a cinematic experience allows Ford to remain a leader on any set. In the work on the film “Blade Runner” (1982), the actors recognized his indisputable authority, but at the beginning his career turned out differently.

A native of Chicago did not reach fame right away. And he became an actor only on the second attempt. At first, Ford suffered a painful failure in collaboration with Columbia Pictures, then the guy made his debut on the big screen at 24. His first 6 roles caused widespread disappointment.

The episodes with Ford in the frame are mercilessly cut out, and in depression from such a failure, Harrison decided to abandon his ambitions in the acting profession. The guy in desperation became a carpenter to earn his living.

Ford Biography

Harrison Ford was born in 1942, he comes from a family of Jewish immigrants in America. The guy grew up in Chicago, but later moved to Los Angeles.

After the first failure in the movie, the future legendary actor no longer hoped to return to the frame, but the case once brought him together with the director, who offered Harrison a fateful role. This fortune not only brought Ford back to the big screen, but later he was among the most paid performers in the world. Ford remains “on top” to this day.

In the film "Blade Runner" (1982), the actors already had great experience in cinema. Harrison was no exception, then he was already 40 years old, and many well-known major roles have accumulated in the track record.

Sean Young

In addition to the production and plot, the actors and roles also did not escape the scrutiny of critics for the film "Blade Runner". Photos of heroes in movie magazines were sold out at an accelerated pace, and skeptics zealously sought out flaws in the picture. But least of all the complaints were heard by Sean Young.

An American actress was born in 1959 in an educated family. Parents worked as journalists and could introduce the child to education and achievements in art. As a teenager, the girl is engaged in dancing and later studies at a specialized school. She showed promise in ballet. With such an education, Young had a set of skills for working as a dancer and actress on the stage. For a while, she earns a living by this. Then her abilities were noticed and invited to play roles in the frame. So the girl goes to the cinema and television.

Young makes her debut on the big screen at the age of 21, from that moment she played several tens of roles.

They also responded well to Sean Young, before filming, she herself was afraid to look like an amateur against the background of Harrison Ford and Rutger Hauer. But they themselves later noted the excellent play of a Dutch film colleague.

Sean Young has remained a sought-after and recognizable actress for 35 years.

Ratings from contemporaries

When the movie “Blade Runner” was released, the actors and roles had to undergo a close analysis of the filmmakers, and it happened. The first estimates were not long in coming.

The reaction of critics at the premiere was not very flattering, many pointed to obvious flaws in the production. Skeptics had to accept the offensive fact that it was for the production that the creators of the picture received the prestigious Hugo Prize. Critics turned their attention to the glut of images with visual effects to the detriment of the storyline. The course of events is simply lost in the colorful frames of the film.
