| I prefer the Director's Cut of Blade Runner because of the more ambiguous ending and the lack of voiceover. The voiceover didn't hurt the film at all, but in comparing the two, I now notice that it might have been a distraction from the amazing art direction and special effects. And the ending seemed a bit out of place, not because it was borrowed footage but because deep down I can't believe that Rick Deckard and Rachel will live happily ever after. For one thing she won't live much longer after when we last see her. Also, isn't a human-android sexual relationship taboo, at least in the novel? It would make sense that that taboo would carry over to the film. So, overall, the Director's Cut seems more honest and alive to me. |
