And in some cases remove the whole window :)  I saw one big-budget
movie recently (can't remember the name...) in which I
suddenly realized that there was something in the foreground
of the car scenes that I have not seen too often... that pesky
mirror.  It was definitely in the scene, but wasn't bothersome
at all!  What *is* bothersome is to see that little mounting
bracket and no mirror!

It is also amazing how they can edit together side shots (from
both sides) and have the background scenes and reactions not
noticably change from take to take.

I didn't notice. I was busy enjoying the music. Did anyone else think that the
soundtrack for the film was just incredible? It reminded me a bit of the 
_Miller Crossing_ soundtrack. Did the same person do both of them?

That was no vampire flick; that was DEATH BECOMES HER; however it was a

used was John Carpenter's score for STARMAN.

That's true. I recall being surprised when I saw the trailers
and commercials for _Darkman_ a couple of years ago, because
I clearly heard the score to _Brainstorm_ accopmanying the
clips. Thankfully, an original score was added to the
actual film.

Since scoring a film is one of the last steps before release,
studios often add scores from other films for the trailers
and even some early commercials.

I can recall hearing the theme music from _The Stunt Man_ in
countless trailers and promos. You'd think they could at least
pick a greater variety of recycled themes so it wouldn't be
so obvious. But then again, it's probably only obvious to
people such as us that read this newsgroup. Oh well.....

I saw it too, and I really liked it, but I had two (spoiler) questions.
Don't read further if you haven't seen the movie.



Both my questions are about Al Pacino's character.  First, people in 
my viewing party disagreed about whether or not Pacino had slept with
the guy he sold the land to (I think his name was Rice in the film).  One
of us said he had slept with him, and then he threatened him with telling
his wife about it (very subtle, friendly, threats).  Did others see this?

The other question is, what was that look on Pacino's face when Lemon
said he made the killer sale this morning?  It was some sort of realization.
Sort of like the look on Kevin Spacey's face when he figured out Lemon knew
something he shouldn't have known.  In the larger sense, I guess I want to
know when Pacino figured out Lemon's story was inconsistent.  And did he 
know the marks Lemon hit were mental cases?  Was he just being nice to
Lemon for kicks?

And why was Harris so mean to Lemon when Lemon did what he wanted?

I liked the movie, but I was a bit confused.  I don't normally deal with
people who are quite that visibly twisted.

Reply-To: ttak@midway.uchicago.edu

Date: Sat, 26 Sep 1992 23:51:03 GMT

It seems to me that Deckard WAS a replicant, but not among the
original 6.  Probably the same generation as Rachel.

The fact that Edward James Olmos (Walsh?) new about Deckard's
unicorn dream supports the idea of Deckard being a replicant.

How Olmos knew about ANYONE's dream, be it a replicant's or
a human's implies that he had to have been told about the dream.
The dream probably then comes from another bladerunner.  This
bladerunner could then be one of the bladerunners that was killed
by Batty & company.

We can then hypothesize that maybe Deckard was made as a bladerunner
replicant to replace the killed bladerunner, and as a more
effective one.

The thing that contradicts this idea is the part where Deckard
is confronted by the second male replicant (that is killed by
Rachel).  He didn't have superior phyical power that replicants are
expected to have.

The sad thing about this story is that if Deckard is a replicant,
he and Rachel are going to have a short lived relationship.  Four
years was it?

	The scene in the church, where the detective dodges the swooping
POV implied that Marie could fly, or glide or *something*. This was not
followed up on, just like the 'move very fast when impressing people
with the move very fast abilities of vampires' ability  was introduced

	Maybe the camera man attacked the detective in the church. That

When I heard about this project - on CNN I believe - they pointed out that
out of the top fifty most popular TV episodes of anything ever, seven of

Great list, but its missing "The Three Worlds Of Gulliver", just shown on

I read, in Discover magazine last summer, that Stephen Spielberg (sorry if
I just butchered his name) had bought the rights to the book 'Jurassic
Park' by Michael Crieghton (again, another possibly butchering) so that
he could make the film.

Has anyone heard anything further?
