Short But Sweet - By: Gaijin, 22 Jun 2004
I've tried to read as much as possible about Blade Runner for several reasons, the two most important being;
1)I love the film & therefore enjoy reading about it.
2)If I read enough about it I might understand why I love it.
It goes without saying that I might, eventuallly, understand a bit more about myself.
Well, in a nutshell, this publication satisfied both points above & went some way to helping me on the third.
It is very in-depth, personal yet analytical, written as a work of love but not ass-kissing & includes some beautiful stills in both B/W & colour.
Perhaps more to the point, Bukatman attempts to get under the skin of BR (no pun intended) & puts across several interpretations of the the movie's themes that I have never read before in a single volume by just one person.
Highly recommended.
