Blade Runner (1982) WORKPRINT-(kubura)

Workprint version (1982)

------------------------

The full workprint version of the movie was released to the public on DVD as

part of the five-disc boxed set containing the Final Cut, in 2007. It has the

following differences:



* There is no voice-over, no "unicorn vision", and no "happy ending".

However, Deckard does have a brief narration directly after Batty's death.

* There is no opening crawl: a static screen of text, showing a dictionary

definition of the word "Replicant", replaces it.

* In the scene at the Asian restaurant at the beginning, there is an insert

shot of the dish Deckard orders.

* From Deckard's arrival at the Bradbury building to the end of the film,

the Vangelis music score is missing, presumably not yet composed at the

time this version was made. It is replaced by placeholder music.

* Deckard is seen taking a few moments struggling to remove the tie that Zhora

choked him with, before beginning to chase her.

* Batty addresses Tyrell as "father" (not "fucker") when asking for more life,

as in the Final Cut.

* When Batty kills Tyrell, the scene is a combination of the "violent" footage from the

International Edition and the "non-violent" footage from the theatrical original.

Batty still pokes out Tyrell's eyes with his thumbs,

but Tyrell is seen falling to the floor as in the original.

* When Pris attacks Deckard, the scene is again a combination of the International Edition

and the original. Pris hits Deckard three times, and also holds him up by his nostrils.

However, Deckard still shoots her only twice.

* The scene in which Batty pushes a nail through his hand is identical to the

"non-violent" version in the Theatrical Release.

* There are no ending credits.
