"blade runner", the first film in the franchise, is a 1982 neo-noir science fiction film, serving as a loose adaptation of the philip k. dick's 1968 novel "do androids dream of electric sheep?". the film is set in a dystopian los angeles of 2019, in which genetically bioengineered replicants, which are visually indistinguishable from adult humans, are manufactured by the tyrell corporation to work on off-world colonies. those that escape and return to earth are hunted down and "retired" by special police operatives known as "blade runners". the story focuses on burnt-out expert blade runner rick deckard, who reluctantly agrees to take on one last assignment to hunt down a group of recently escaped replicants led by roy batty. during his investigations, deckard meets rachael, an advanced experimental replicant who causes him to question his attitude towards replicants and what it means to be human. starring harrison ford, rutger hauer, sean young, and edward james olmos, it was released in the united states on june 25, 1982. it underperformed in north american theaters, but has since become a cult film. the year following its release, the film won the prestigious hugo award for best dramatic presentation. hailed for its production design, depicting a "retrofitted" future, it remains a leading example of neo-noir cinema. the film's soundtrack, composed by vangelis, was critically acclaimed and nominated in 1983 for a bafta and golden globe as best original score. in 1993, the movie was selected for preservation in the united states national film registry by the library of congress, being deemed "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant". "blade runner" is now regarded by many critics as one of the all-time best science fiction films.
