    The indescribable beauty of emptiness, bleakness and originality Bladerunner 1982 showed can never be equaled. There is only 1 Vangelis, 1 Rutger Hauer, 1 Harrison Ford and one Sean Young.
    There is only one 1982.

      First time I watched Blade Runner I was 10 years old. With my dad. He took me to a kind of cult movie theater we had in our city, and I never forgot this. My father passed 15 years ago and Blade Runner always reminds me of him. I must have watched this beauty about 10 times.

      Yes she was. Unfortunately all the females that I have encountered that look similar or exactly like how Sean looked back then have drug and/or alcohol problems. Including my ex. There must be something connecting them, genetically or socially. I dont think they realize how beautiful they truly are, no matter how much they are told, or the focus is solely on beauty and little substance.

    I related to Sean young’s character so much as a young woman. Untouchable. Hidden truth. Finding love through the knowledge that she is more than an Android. Everyone hates what she is but she has value. Someone loves her this much. This was my therapy.

      @Stoneryoda 937 well written, especially the last thing you say - "but he keeps it ambiguous", has a double meaning. If I may continue:
      Jared Leto has the power to know, but he is more powerful if he doesn't tell him. Dick Reckard - sounds like Record. I think if Rick Deckard IS a replicant, only his eyes are not his - probably sold away with his sheep, in his... dream... his rain... his nightmare...

    I've always loved this piece, it's absolutely timeless. In a movie that includes so many themes, this song amazingly follows that convention with it's name and makes for a perfect companion to the movie's story. Memories of Green, a meloncholic song that evokes feelings of longing for something that's been lost forever. In the post-apocalyptic world of Blade Runner, flowers, plants and animals are just but memories of things long gone.

    During shooting Sean and Harrison couldn't stand each other and this tension carried over into the piece adding real chemistry between the actors.. Vangelis's music is integral to the brilliance of the film. Combined with artistic cinematography, superb sets and a chilling theme about 'replicants', turning against their masters, Blade runner stands alone as quite probably the greatest science fiction film of all time.

      First off "Memories of Green" preceded the film release by 2 years with a 1980 Vangelis album.
      (quite possibly even what prompted his hiring for the job)
      As to the 2 actors not being able to stand each other - Harrison was an experienced professional, and Sean all but new to acting
      It's not that he couldn't stand her, he was just annoyed at being left to explain everything to her whenever there was gaps in her knowledge.
      This is because Ridley Scott has never been a very 'hands on with the actors' kind of director, he's a camera/effects/art kind of director that prefers to leave the actors to do their own thing while he makes the film look great, something Harrison also wasn't particularly fond of either despite his appreciation for Ridley's trade skills.
      As for Sean Young, she did not dislike Ford - she was just very intimidated by him (what new actress wouldn't be??), made worse by his impatience at her ignorance.
      It's a pretty understandable outcome, and easily avoided had Ridley or a producer contracted some assistant director to do the things he had no stomach for with the actors, at the very least for poor miss Young 😅.

    My heart is broken and crying. I have never met such a poetic musical soul in my life as Vangelis'. An genius who - in my case at least - at times really touched me with his music… There is so much of his music that touches, moves me - or even sometimes makes me cry…. - I can't describe what his music has meant to me at times… - my heart is crying… Ευχαριστώ για τη μουσική σας, κύριε. Για πάντα η ψυχή σου περιπλανιέται στα αστέρια....

He makes any film he is involved in! As important as the actors.... more so in certain scenes..... just like Ennio Morricone... and so many other great Cinematic Composers! ...we are so fortunate to have them! ...and I wonder what masterpieces would have been given us...had The Cinema have been created in the days of Chopin...Liszt... Puccini...Verdi...Strauss...Mozart ...Beethoven.....

    One of the saddest themes , ever.....
    Per many years, each time I heard this track, I could imagine a scientist or military base in the South Pole (or in another planet)..first habited by a crew of only 6 people ...(begining of the song)...and during the 'happy' part, it was the grand ship coming with the new crew and guests.,..they share a lunch and an afternoon together laughing.....and just befor the night comes, the ship left again, leaving the new 6 people crew in the camp..and the sadness coming back...(ending of the song)
    the thing is that in 2011 I ACTUALLY spent a whole year in Antartica..and to be honest, it was a hard, hard time (psychologically speaking)
    I had a collection of several gigabytes of music..but I REALLY was afraid that if I listened to this theme I would break to pieces and do a stupid thing,.....Only after several months there, I finally was able to pass through the listening of this sad song...in a military base, near the south pole,with a reduced crew of fellow partners...

    Se ha ido el maestro Vangelis. El músico visionario y futurista. Que sería de mis tardes de lluvia y mis noches de pasión sin el fondo de su música. Hasta siempre Evángelos.
    "Cuando las tardes caen en días de lluvia y me encuentro inmerso apaciblemente entre los muros de mi casa, me gusta escuchar esta canción de Vangelis, Tiene un poder cautivador que me hace desempolvar recuerdos y me sumerge ante un mar de personas que he tenido el gusto de conocer. Les invoco, les venero, aprecio sus rostros, me pierdo en sus formas y texturas, y voy describiendo un anecdotario que sólo es escuchado por mi propia mente cuyo vuelo es exaltado ante la parsimoniosa lluvia y es cuando me pregunto, ¿Qué tan basto ha sido el jardín de mis recuerdos y que tan lóbrego es el bosque de mis olvidos?
    OT"

    I'm saddened...Not only by this song but by the actress Sean Young. When I first saw this movie at the age of 12, I thought she was the most beautiful woman on screen. A couple of years ago, I decided to look up Blade Runner on UA-cam. I came across her scene again and thought, she's still so very beautiful, just like I remembered her in my childhood. Then after researching online about her, my image of her was somewhat shattered... I had no idea she became an alcoholic and dwindled downhill for a while... But I'm still happy she's around. Sean Young, if you're reading this, know that a bad chapter can be accepted as part of your life but not as your identity. I wish you the best and wish to see more of you on screen. Hopefully back in Blade Runner 2
