MOVIE :Blade Runner 2049

First of all, it is necessary to keep in mind that this movie was first released in 1982 and appreciate it. Even after more than 30 years, the visual art elements are not awkward at all. Of course, as we approach 2019, the setting of the movie, there is a sense of distance from the means of transportation floating in the air and the dystopian worldview that we do not want to face, but the streets covered with flashing neon signs and skyscrapers emitting flames are lined up. They look very sensual and sophisticated. It is truly astonishing how they could have imagined such a shocking end-of-century atmosphere at that time. In addition to this, Ridley Scott is

'Consideration on human being' was used a lot as the overall theme, and
this work delivers that message more efficiently.

In contrast to the serious subject, the story is rather concise than expected. After fulfilling their vocation, humans who are preparing for colonization to another planet (Off-World) create replicants called 'nexus', or 'clones', and use them as agents of colonial policy. It deals with the process of removing the surplus forces that have infiltrated the earth. The executor is a special police force called Blade Runners, and Deckard (Harrison Ford) is one of the veteran runners. What is noteworthy is the opening statement explaining the background, which shows that the death of clones is expressed not as 'execution' but as 'removal' or 'dismissal'. From that line that seems meaningless, we can guess that they are not being treated as 'real humans'. In the movie, they are still only human 'slaves', so it can be inferred that the confrontation between humans and clones will be revealed in the story to be unfolded.

Deckard pursues the infiltrating gang and kills them one by one. In the process, he falls in love with Rachel (Sean Young), an evolved clone of Tyrell. This scene is inserted as if symbolizing a ray of hope in a gloomy and hopeless background. In reality, the coexistence of humans and clones, which will soon be faced, is not portrayed only as an inevitable conflict, but rather as a relationship of harmony and coexistence, and furthermore, 'acknowledging' each other's existence as a representative expression. Unfortunately, the lifespan of clones is fixed at 4 years. The clone leader Roy (Rutger Hauer) and his lover Fris (Daryl Hannah) go to their creator, Dr. Tyrell, to ask for an extension of their life, but when they find out there is no way, they get angry and kill him. After all, they also contain the instinct for the continuation of life just like real humans, which makes the audience contemplate what the standards of a person are and whether they can truly accept them as human beings. The instinctive desire to live is a factor that corresponds to 'reality', but because their physical abilities and even their memories are all 'designed', they lack 'past' and 'experience', and in a word, the normal human growth process. It is also a non-subjective existence that has not been experienced. These questions are by no means ridiculous because they are problems that we will truly face in the not-too-distant future.

In fact, since it is an old film that belongs to a classic movie in terms of production time, it felt somewhat crude or lacking in directing. Personally, the fact that the development was delayed more than necessary when the subject was revealed, the dialogue that continued unnaturally, the tone that held the weight consistently, and the exaggerated gestures and expressions of the actors in the action scenes came a bit awkward. However, considering the fact that there were several sources to create an apocalyptic worldview in a bizarre atmosphere, it was not so uncomfortable. In particular, I think that the synthesizer's mechanical sound played a big role in heightening the eerieness of the play.

While being chased by him, Roy rescues Deckard from death by hanging on a railing.

'How does it feel to live in fear, that's slavery'

It makes them understand their existence and struggles from the point of view of Yeokjisaji. Sadly, soon, Roy's life will come to an end, and the lines in this scene are the heart of the film, reminiscing on the memories of the planet where he fought for colonization,

'All those moments will disappear in time. Like my tears in the rain, it's time to die.' say

In conclusion, their lives were short and short, but they fought their own struggles and felt the emotions of joy and sorrow in that moment, and all of them are stored as 'memories', suggesting that they too are intact beings just like 'real humans'. It seems safe to say that this movie was directed for that scene in the second half. In addition, questions that require consideration and arbitrary interpretation of 'human' often appear. Clearly, Ridley Scott is a master who can draw the so-called 'big picture' based on 'philosophical core'. Instead of arguing over and over again,

This is because by applying appropriate visual elements and only a few refined lines of dialogue,
it makes us fall into a certain kind of thinking.
