the most conclusive evidence for this NOT being a rape:
replicants are much stronger than humans; she could overpower a human male if she really didn't want to have sex with him.
Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? has a lot more revealing information about Tyrell's niece and the replicants modeled after her, but this movie, I think, has to stand apart and be evaluated on its own merits.
@freakdaddydog Amen to that. I don't think any music has ever fit the "feel" of a movie more perfectly that Vangelis' work in Blade Runner. Every note. Every glissando. Every single "moment" of music seems to almost be bonded in some harmonious (or sometimes dissonant) way with the individual scenes, on another level that other movies just don't have. It's almost can't be explained. It's a feeling you get..........a........I don't know......can't find the words...........
Sometimes I think of this film. When I first got it I could only watch it at night and in a certain mood but it was the only one I watched. She's been taught to have a heart but she didn't know she wasn't real until Decker. Then it broke. Weither she was built or made, it really doesn't make a difference. Her mind is human and therefore complete. If we could trade bodies with our own minds in them, wouldn't we be real? She's new to attraction so she starts by taking down her hair.
I'm the same way. I only watch this at night (alone usually) and it's one of the very, very few movies I watch on a semi-regular basis. It's great at night with a good pair of headphones on and all the lights turned off, no distractions.
the violent nature of this scene, especially at 5:30 or so (where deckard goes all minor key on poor rachel), always makes me feel pretty much like shit, in contrast to the rest of this great film, which makes me happy to be alive...seems like a cheap bit of exploitative porn inserted in an otherwise highminded film...
Anyone who says it's rape. I bet are the spineless fools who are too scared to spank a girl's ass or pull their hair when fucking oh sorry I mean making lol (rolls eyes)
Deckard's eyes 1:01 - 1:05...suspicious but just enough out of focus to not be sure! Love the way its filmed always that ambiguity about Deckard's identity
i listen to this song at night dream of the perfect night in with my girlfriend. so peaceful and harmlessly sensuous to listen to. especially if its raining outside. just beautiful...
thanks for upload. love this in particular because if u listen carefully, in the b.g ambient sounds are similar to that on ALIEN. beautiful movie. glad Ridley did not take to full blown sex scene coz that would have killed it. instead lets explore "android love encounter" visually and passionately.
When Sean has her hair down it's pretty but she looks like Marc Bolan around 5:45 but that's OK because he was pretty and he looked like Sean when he had his hair down!
I once saw this on a giant curved Cinerama screen that so immersed me in this film that it felt like I was observing reality - when I left the theater I felt disoriented. I remember my heart as beating faster than normal and feeling kind of queasy - I thought I had just observed the most beautiful female creature ever sent to Earth. Now THAT was a mad crush!
I'm not saying it IS a rape scene because I know the plot of the movie, but seeing this out of context, especially with him pushing her against the wall and how scared she sounds when she says what he's asking her to say, I can see how this can look uncomfortably like a rape scene and be triggering to victims.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Regardless of a multitude of emotions, or the context of the film... this scene depicts a rape. The face people fail to see that is why Rape victims continue to be let down by societly... plain and simple.
Rachel is a replicant - a human grown in a tank and them filled with someone elses memories to provide a pychological cushion so she doesn't go off the rails. We never know how long Rachel has been 'alive' for & have to assume she probably has no memories of a lover or how to behave as one & panics. Deckards initial anger is born of confusion - he's spent his life killing replicants, yet he is falling in love with one - an incredible piece of juxtaposition IMO. Rape scene? Most definitely not!
Es una hermosa escena Christine1394. Esta película es una de mis favoritas, para mi es una de las 3 o 4 mejores películas de ciencia ficción de todos los tiempos.
zomg, I cant believe what some of you are thinking. Watch the movie. She is coming to terms w/ being a replicant and a human is putting the moves on her. She doesnt want to be a replicant or treated like an object. she also has feelings for him but like playing the piano, are they her emotions or a form of programming. So she runs off because of all these. He runs after her to show her he actually has feelings for her and that he doesnt care what she is he cares for her.
@TheTophorses I don't see what this conversation has to do with "depressed feminists"...there are no comments on hating men, just different interpretations of a "love scene". Some people felt like the scene was too forceful and brought up the discussion of rape. Please look up the definition of the term before making accusations.
This scene absolutely depicts rape. This is the problem with a society that only teaches no means no. YES means YES. And if it takes slamming a girl against a wall and telling her to say yes to get that answer, then it sure as hell isn't consent. And if it isn't consensual, it's RAPE and it's wrong.
@jimbobhk2009 Glad to know you have assessed my mental competency based on my response to "this scene" and not the whole movie. And no, I have not seen the movie. Pray tell me, what occurred before this that makes it not rape. She freaking tried to run out the door. BTW, I don't really want to watch the whole thing after seeing this.
@anagram4great it makes sense calling it rape when you haven't seen the whole film
the truth of the story is they are in love with each other but she's afraid because he's a bladerunner and she's a replicant so that makes things kinda complicated. i think you should watch the movie and you might feel differently.
plus she sleeps at his place after so i think if he did rape her she wouldn't do that.
@jimbobhk2009 They may be in love. That is irrelevant. It doesn't matter if she forgives him after or what the circumstances are. She may not be scarred by it or even consider it a big deal but the fact of the matter is this scene depicts the coercion of an unwilling parter into having sex. i.e. rape
Plus, that is totally unrealistic and perpetuates the idea that rape can be corrective. Oh, she's just confused; THAT'S why she's resisting and running away. that shit doesn't fly in real life.
@jimbobhk2009 Someone mentioned it as a kind of rape-y scene so I checked it out. I think it's more than kind of rapey but I will watch the movie and get back to you. However, it is extremely unlikely that the circumstances will change my interpretation of this moment.
@anagram4great {And if it isn't consensual, it's RAPE and it's wrong.}
The big mistake your making is that he is not forcing sex from her, but "to admit she loves". Rape isn't about love. And yes, both men and women need at times to be "pushed against the wall" to get ourselves to admit what can be the scariest thing in the world - love.
Such a dreamlike world. Love the weight of the film standard. (I can't help but feel sadness when I see the plastic cleanliness of the new picture that Ridley's Scott's name is attached to, Life in a Day.) I love the ethereal light creeping past the window shades.
The thing is Deckard doesnt see her as a real person so he feels like what hes doing is somehow deviant. Thats why he is acting so unnaturally. From that point of view the scene is actually brilliant.
I'm addicted to this scene. It's just so intensely wonderful and intricate. The way Rachel takes her hair down. There's no sappy exchange of words or actions, but their actions set the scene perfectly. It's beautiful
Yeah... Seems like 95% of movies post-2000 are just so fast and full of quick camera cuts and over the top effects and such. It gets old. I still enjoy a lot of movies that come out but only ONCE, I can't watch most of them twice because there's just nothing new to glean from it or soak up on a second viewing. Blade Runner is the richest film I have ever seen, I can watch it over and over and still never absorb everything it has to give.
@AnotherSchmoe And how about the sound effects now. Distracting and sometimes laughable. A character turns to face another, the sound effect is like a spaceship in Star Wars swooshing past a planetary moon. No subtlety.
I 'spose the SFX people want to be noticed too, so f**k the story.
Now I pretty much give-up on a movie at the hint of a over-the-top SFX crew in the production.
@AnotherSchmoe, it's because Blade Runner was shot on film. (I know I sound like a broken records with all my comments.) Film with grain pulled the viewer in. There was weight and soul to the world. The grain ensured that the world always looked alive, each frame being different. The 24 frames per second ensured that that world seemed separate from our own, existing only in dreams.
Now, with everything being plastic, clean and digital and "in your face," there is no "pull," only "push."
I think it's beautiful and very relaxing. It has a multitude of emotion and I don't think it can be so lazily labeled as "rape," because it clearly isn't.
@Alekx I too agree with you! I'm a woman, and I see this as being very passionate, he doesn't want her to go. Rape is forceful and deeminging, and that's not what's going on in this scene. If he was raping her, he would of grabbed her and forced her onto the couch or bedroom...he clearly isn't doing that. Rachel is an android who is confused with her feelings and she keeps running away from them...he's helping her "feel her emotions" and what it feel like to be human if that makes any sense.
@TinQuasimodo yeah the neo-slavery of the fake future is in many ways a utopia compared to our sad present, where angry clit slinging feminazis run rampant over human emotion
No, I certainly dont support rape, but there's something so wonderful about Sean Young's performance in this scene, so soft, so vulnerable and I dont think she's ever looked more beautiful.
Its a real 'eye-opener' watching the making of this scene. It was extremely awkward, Young kept having fits of giggles and Harrison Ford became very visibly and highly irritated by her and the constant re-takes.....amazing that it eventually turned out to be a sequence of such beauty and poignancy.
ok people, can I just clear something up here. I left my youtube account logged in in an internet cafe and someone wrote that comment. I've never even seen blade runner let alone know what it is. I thought it was something to do with Arnold Schwarzenegger or something. So I have been politely ignoring the comments due to my stupidity, but please, this has been going on now for about a year so could you please all stop commenting on that comment. Many Thanks!
@conzo21 There's a difference between (A) hesitating and (B) yelling "Stop! Rape!!!"
Obviously in this case the right answer is (A). Kudos to Deckard for not joining her in her hesitation, and taking a stance. She could easily have ruined the situation by saying "cut the crap, I'm not into you, get off my face". She didn't.
Rachel is a replicant - a human grown in a tank and them filled with someone elses memories to provide a pychological cushion so she doesn't go off the rails. We never know how long Rachel has been 'alive' for & have to assume she probably has no memories of a lover or how to behave as one & panics. Deckards initial anger is born of confusion - he's spent his life killing replicants, yet he is falling in love with one - an incredible piece of juxtaposition IMO. Rape scene? Most definitely not!
@skimbo72 - you took the words right out of my mouth. I was trying to find the correct way of explaining this and saw your comment... so on it. Everything about this scene suggests love. I think it's sad that anyone could see this as a 'rape' scene. To me that suggests a complete lack of understanding as to what bladerunner is about.... it amazes me after so long that people still aren't truly understanding the film. Great shame. Seems Ridley was WAY AHEAD of his time...
@conzo21 I think you confuse "rape" for "love" if you are dumb enough to see rape in this scene then you went through life missing its most essential aspect, love. Nowadays, some people gone mad will even call "rape" someone gazing at you or someone even touching you on the shoulder.
Hell it's an insane world filled with lonely people without direction, without love, without desire, without depth.
Recall, that Deckard didn't want to be a bladerunner any longer until his boss basically threatened his life. Gaff used him to do his work. And then the replicants beats the crap out of him. I don't profess to have the greatest knowledge of cinema, but this may be the first movie (that I recall) where the hero gets pushed around and used by everyone....other than Rachel that is.
Side note: for me, this movie was more about Rachel than Deckard. The Robot who dreamt she was a human.
dus any1 else notice she has bright red lippy on, then suddenly when it gets to the scene where he comes over 2 sit nxt to her at the piano after he wakes up, her lippy has rubbed off?
Harrison Ford:the most vulnerable ;ACTION STAR " EVER;only star who could pull off looking like he's about to cry in so many crucial scenes in his movies.......
@dadautube ohhh, it's a mixture... now i get it! so then i guess as long as there's a bit of "love" blended in with the forcing of sex on an unwilling partner, then it's all good...right? so for example, your daughter could be physically stopped from leaving some guy's house after making it clear she didn't want sex, thrown around roughly when she tried again to leave, and finally intimidated into compliance by the threat of further violence...as long as there's some "love" mixed in. awesome.
@mattshardez - yes, somewhat, even the main character, name?, the one played by Harrison Ford, is a victim himself, either as the Replicants hunter who hates his job but has to carry it out because he's jobless mainly, or worse, because he's a suspected replicant himself ... they're both victims: the girl and the man ... this is not love actually: it's more like a miserable situation, as they're both in a miserable position ... this movie is a bitter masterpiece of truth ...
@dadautube so since he's miserable, he can make her even MORE miserable by forcing her to have sex when she clearly doesnt want to. like i said before, if it was your daughter, you wouldn't find this scene such a masterpiece.
@mattshardez - do u always read all kinds of text in such a way, not in full? then read my comment again please: "this movie is a * bitter * masterpiece of truth ..."
@christine1394 are you effing serious?? a "love scene"?? ok fair enough, i just have one question for you: if you were to watch that same, exact scenario play out in real-life, except the woman was your mother... or your sister... or your daughter... would you still call it a "love scene"? just wondering.
1:01............ "But somebody would' ! Decard's eyes glowed red too. He IS a Replicant too !!

The grain ensured that the world always looked alive, each frame being different. The 24 frames per second ensured that that world seemed separate from our own, existing only in dreams.
Now, with everything being plastic, clean and digital and "in your face," there is no "pull," only "push."

I think it's beautiful and very relaxing. It has a multitude of emotion and I don't think it can be so lazily labeled as "rape," because it clearly isn't.

@Alekx I too agree with you! I'm a woman, and I see this as being very passionate, he doesn't want her to go. Rape is forceful and deeminging, and that's not what's going on in this scene. If he was raping her, he would of grabbed her and forced her onto the couch or bedroom...he clearly isn't doing that. Rachel is an android who is confused with her feelings and she keeps running away from them...he's helping her "feel her emotions" and what it feel like to be human if that makes any sense.

No, I certainly dont support rape, but there's something so wonderful about Sean Young's performance in this scene, so soft, so vulnerable and I dont think she's ever looked more beautiful.
Its a real 'eye-opener' watching the making of this scene. It was extremely awkward, Young kept having fits of giggles and Harrison Ford became very visibly and highly irritated by her and the constant re-takes.....amazing that it eventually turned out to be a sequence of such beauty and poignancy.

I always found this scene so awkward... its not rape... but its not that romantic either. Just sex. Still a great movie.

ok people, can I just clear something up here. I left my youtube account logged in in an internet cafe and someone wrote that comment. I've never even seen blade runner let alone know what it is. I thought it was something to do with Arnold Schwarzenegger or something. So I have been politely ignoring the comments due to my stupidity, but please, this has been going on now for about a year so could you please all stop commenting on that comment. Many Thanks!

@conzo21 There's a difference between (A) hesitating and (B) yelling "Stop! Rape!!!"
Obviously in this case the right answer is (A). Kudos to Deckard for not joining her in her hesitation, and taking a stance. She could easily have ruined the situation by saying "cut the crap, I'm not into you, get off my face". She didn't.

Rachel is a replicant - a human grown in a tank and them filled with someone elses memories to provide a pychological cushion so she doesn't go off the rails. We never know how long Rachel has been 'alive' for & have to assume she probably has no memories of a lover or how to behave as one & panics. Deckards initial anger is born of confusion - he's spent his life killing replicants, yet he is falling in love with one - an incredible piece of juxtaposition IMO. Rape scene? Most definitely not!

@skimbo72 - you took the words right out of my mouth. I was trying to find the correct way of explaining this and saw your comment... so on it. Everything about this scene suggests love. I think it's sad that anyone could see this as a 'rape' scene. To me that suggests a complete lack of understanding as to what bladerunner is about.... it amazes me after so long that people still aren't truly understanding the film. Great shame. Seems Ridley was WAY AHEAD of his time...
MrWriter34 1 year ago 2
@conzo21 I think you confuse "rape" for "love" if you are dumb enough to see rape in this scene then you went through life missing its most essential aspect, love. Nowadays, some people gone mad will even call "rape" someone gazing at you or someone even touching you on the shoulder.
Hell it's an insane world filled with lonely people without direction, without love, without desire, without depth.
TheDogThatMeows 1 year ago
Recall, that Deckard didn't want to be a bladerunner any longer until his boss basically threatened his life. Gaff used him to do his work. And then the replicants beats the crap out of him. I don't profess to have the greatest knowledge of cinema, but this may be the first movie (that I recall) where the hero gets pushed around and used by everyone....other than Rachel that is.
Side note: for me, this movie was more about Rachel than Deckard. The Robot who dreamt she was a human.

dadautube 1 year ago
@dadautube ohhh, it's a mixture... now i get it! so then i guess as long as there's a bit of "love" blended in with the forcing of sex on an unwilling partner, then it's all good...right? so for example, your daughter could be physically stopped from leaving some guy's house after making it clear she didn't want sex, thrown around roughly when she tried again to leave, and finally intimidated into compliance by the threat of further violence...as long as there's some "love" mixed in. awesome.
mattshardez 1 year ago
@mattshardez - yes, somewhat, even the main character, name?, the one played by Harrison Ford, is a victim himself, either as the Replicants hunter who hates his job but has to carry it out because he's jobless mainly, or worse, because he's a suspected replicant himself ... they're both victims: the girl and the man ... this is not love actually: it's more like a miserable situation, as they're both in a miserable position ... this movie is a bitter masterpiece of truth ...
dadautube 1 year ago
@dadautube so since he's miserable, he can make her even MORE miserable by forcing her to have sex when she clearly doesnt want to. like i said before, if it was your daughter, you wouldn't find this scene such a masterpiece.
