A brilliant actor. Loved him in Blade Runner and Blind Fury. That end scene in Blade Runner simply among the finest piece of cinema ever filmed. Jaw dropping, emotional, powerful. Nothing in cinema today comes close.....
Met Rutger at a convention in 2002. He signed my dvd of Bladerunner and later in the evening had a screening of the same movie at a local theatre. My wife was pregnant at the time and slept most of the movie.
Mr Hauer was a down to earth guy. Will be missed.
