I had an art teacher in high school who was smitten by Sean Young (the actress who played Rachael), so it was nearly a class assignment to watch Blade Runner. It's not the easiest movie to follow on the first viewing, but it really is quite beautiful to watch.
I'm still not quite sure why Roy Batty pushed the nail through his hand (some sort of allusion to Christ, I'm sure), and I'm not really sure where the whole "Deckard is a replicant" thing comes from. But, I'm sure I'll figure it out on the next viewing.
I have the Director's Cut on VHS. Is there any reason to get the DVD?
