When Rutger Met Ridley

Producer Michael Deeley has a new memoir called Blade Runners, Deer Hunters, And Blowing The Bloody Doors Off--My Life in Cult Movies, among whose juicy Blade Runner anecdotes include Rutger Hauer's introduction to Ridley Scott. Hauer's wardrobe included "pink silk pants and a Kenzo sweater with a fox fur draped over his shoulder. He had bleached his hair and was wearing Elton John-style glasses. Ridley was seriously upset, convinced that we had foisted on him a gay activist to play the most aggressively masculine part in the picture." Forget about a must-read -- this is a must-see. Pictures, anyone? [La Daily Musto]

    Seriously, who cares how Rutger looked- if you read his bio he wrote he did it to try to get the part, not because he dressed in the dark- he was going for a "android feel". he got the part and Ridley made a great choice.... are all your outfits so perfect- think not- nick one up for
    "it worked"
