Blade Runner and Modernism/Postmodernism/Existentialism
You will write a script for an oral presentation. Imagine that you are the director of the 1982 movie Blade Runner. You have decided to add one more scene at the very beginning of the movie immediately following the opening credits. The purpose of the scene will be to clue the audience on whether this is going to be an existentialist, modernist, or postmodernist movie. Explain your ideas about what you would include in this brief opening scene. It should be abundantly clear from what you say how your creative ideas would reflect an existentialist, modernist, or postmodernist approach to this particular movie. Write a script, jotting down some big ideas that you don’t want to miss. Your presentation should be 2-3 minutes long.
