Quote:Director's cut has no self-naration. Actually, the original cut only had a little bit a the beginning anyway.
Noir in general, not necessarially Blade Runner in specific...
Quote:Generally speaking "noir" refers to any kind of mystery/police novel/film that's darker in theme and atmosphere than traditional mystery novels ("noir" means "black" in French). For example while a traditional mystery novel might involve a detective and his sidekick investigating and eventually solving a crime, a novel with noir elements might kill off the sidekick in a freak accident - ie with no moral reason for him to die, and as lazy said causing the main character to become introspective and question life, the universe and everything.
Darker both in this sense and in the sense that they like to use the color black a lot... :)
