Future Noir - The Making Of Blade Runner
by Sammon, Paul M
London: Orion Media, 1996. First UK edition hardback. An uninscribed copy which has a small indentation to side edge, minor indentations to back, dust marking to top edge and a little light foxing to closed edges, also the publisher's barcode label to rear pastedown. Dustjacket is not price clipped and has an indentation to back, some light creasing to top and lower edge and some foxing to reverse of dustjacket not showing through to front. The fascinating story behind the darkest and most influential SF film ever made. Fifteen years after it's initial release and original box office failure, Blade Runner is now considered to be among the most influential and popular films of our time. Based on 'Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep' by Philip K. Dick, it concerns the futuristic adventures of Rick Deckard, played by Harrison Ford, a burned out, hard drinking assassin, working for the Los Angeles police. Deckard is trained to identify and kill 'Replicants', synthetic humans. Despite the enormous influence of the film no single book has charted the evolution, production history and cultural impact of it, and present during the entire development and filming, author Paul M. Sammon carried out over 70 interviews with all the key players involved in the making of the film. The result was over 200 hours of transcribed talks which the author has painstakingly assembled to present one of the most entertaining, exhaustive overviews of any motion picture. Photographic illustrations throughout. *** A heavy volume of over 900g unpacked weight *** Further images showing all 'faults' are available on request. **** THE VERY SCARCE and COLLECTIBLE HARDBACK EDITION ****. First Edition. Hard Cover. Very Good/Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
