My favourite scene, because I consider it one of the most moving in the film, has to be Deckard ruthlessly destroying Rachel's supposed reality by describing her own memories back to her. Disregard all the SFX, action etc; in that scene the horror of the replicants plight is vividly portrayed.<BR>Sorry to get serious with you folks but I get teary eyed whenever I see that scene and yet I've noticed it slide over new viewers with no reaction. I must be getting old.

jch, indeed that is a very powerful scene?when Rachel?s walls of reality come crashing down and Deckard harsh bluntness. Sean Young has stated that she is particularly proud of her performance in that scene. She said that she really dug deep for an emotional response and that those tears were real. <BR><BR>

Thanks endzem, nice to know someone else appreciates what is a quiet but powerful scene. I've never been sure if that was written by Fancher or Peoples (or whoever), do you have any idea?

Welcome to the forum, Maxtream.<BR><BR>I think Deckard reading Rachael?s file and knowing of her memory implants is a widely accepted assumption amongst fans. It?s very likely that after Tyrell admits to Deckard that Rachael is indeed a ?special? replicant (after she has stepped out of the office), Deckard then uses his police jurisdiction to request Rachael?s file and go through it.<BR><BR>

Any scene in Sebastian's apartment(specifically his particular apartment).<BR><BR>I really like when Pris spray paints her eyes and that whole extended scene of her cartwheeling into JF's lab, the music is beautiful.

If Deckard read Rachael's files what was his purpose in lying to her when she asked him if he read them?

I'm sure this will change as I age, but I have two favorites:<BR><BR>The opening. It's just such a jolt, an opening crawl then BOOM!..industrial hell. A simple Interrogation in a corporate atmosphere then BOOM!...a cop slumped over with a hole in his chest and a guy standing over him who doesn't want to talk about his mother.<BR><BR>Second, and this will probably change, any scene with ads. I dunno, I wasn't old enough to see film when it came out and those ads (dated as they are) offer a strange sort of nostalgia.
