description: "Future Noir: The Making of Blade Runner" is the complete story of how Ridley Scott turned Philip K. Dick's brilliant and troubling science fiction novel "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?" into the most influential SF film ever made. This is an insiders (sic) account of the seven-year odyssey to bring the movie to the screen which tested the nerve and imagination of the most innovative writers, producers, special effects wizards and set designers in the industry.Including never before seen stills and exclusive interviews with Ridley Scott and cast members, author Paul M. Sammon carried out over seventy interviews with all the key players involved in the filming of "Blade Runner". The result was over two hundred hours of transcribed talks which he has painstakingly assembled to present one of the most entertaining, exhaustive overviews of any modern motion picture.
