L'énigme Deckard
This post is positively filled with spoilers. I'm also not going to be spending much time reviewing the plot for the sake of the people who haven't seen the film. No hard feelings: there's just too much going on in it to spend more than a paragraph reviewing the plot. We need to get to the real meat and potatoes of analysis. So for those of you not yet acquainted with this film here's what you get: In the year 2019, the Tyrell Corporation is busy building near-perfect human cyborgs called Replicants.

En dehors de la voix-off qui annihile toutes les ambiguïtés et détruit l'ambiance claustrophobique du film (Nous y reviendrons dans un futur chapitre : Le son de Blade runner ) et dont la suppression permet au film d'être encore plus funèbre, le principal et pourtant infime changement opéré par Ridley Scott sur cette deuxième version concerne ce fameux rêve de licorne que fait Deckard devant son piano.

14. Is Deckard a replicant? (Blade Runner)
This article is from the Blade Runner FAQ , by Murray Chapmanmuzzle@cs.uq.oz.au with numerous contributions by others. This question causes the most debate among BR fans. The different versions of BR support this notion to differing degrees. One might argue that in the 1982 theatrical release, Deckard is not a replicant but in BRDC, he is. There is no definitive answer: Ridley Scott himself has stated that, although he deliberately made the ending ambiguous, he also intentionally introduced enough evidence to support the notion, and (as far as he is concerned), Deckard is a replicant.

Director Ridley Scott has finally revealed the answer to a plot twist in his film Blade Runner which has been the topic of fierce debate for nearly two decades. Movie fans have been divided over whether Harrison Ford's hard-boiled cop character Deckard was not human but a genetically-engineered "replicant" - the very creatures he is tasked with destroying. Little suspicion was raised by the 1982 original version of the film, based on Philip K Dick's novel: Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?

Film History: Blade Runner Joseph M. Reagle Jr. "I've seen things you people wouldn't believe...Attack ships on fire off the shores of Orion...I watched c-beams glitter in the dark near the Tanhauser Gate.

Deckard as Replicant - Off-world: The Blade Runner Wiki
A few precious pages from an early screenplay for Blade Runner have turned up online, and they're radically different than the version you saw on screen. They end with Deckard realizing he's a Replicant. Blade Runner went through many drafts on its way to the screen, and that's not even counting the last-minute revisions that added a new voiceover. For years now, we've had the July 24, 1980 version by Hampton Fancher, and the February 23, 1981 revision by Fancher and David Peoples. (Fancher didn't want to make some of the changes director Ridley Scott kept insisting on, so Scott brought in Peoples to do them.) But now another Fancher draft has surfaced at GameOfTheArt.com , and it's dated December 22, 1980.
