A morally ambivalent tale of two policemen involved in various battles; for the top job, to put an end to a violent gang, to protect their snitches and, we are led to believe, in the past over a woman. Both policemen bend the laws beyond the limits of decency to achieve their ends in this dark and gun-slinging thriller set against the backdrop of a neon-lit Paris underworld.

A chance for fans of the Bladerunner experience (and aren't we all?) to see the first ever cut of Ridley Scott's dystopian masterpiece. This workprint represents the pre-theatrical release version that offers some alternative footage and includes the voice-over narration long absent from DVD and video. An interesting companion to the final, original and director's cuts.
