It's been awhile since our last Anatomy of a Scene episode, so we thought we'd revisit the format with an especially impactful scene from Blade Runner 2049: Luv's death at the hands of K.
Sylvia Hoeks' performance is a thing of wonder. The score is ravishing. This complicated, astonishing narrative reaches its denouement.
Let's talk about it!

166 // Blade Runner Behind-The-Scenes with Assistant Director Vicki Rhodes
In this ultra-special episode, Jaime and Patrick sit down with Vicki Rhodes, assistant director on Blade Runner, to uncover the incredible behind-the-scenes stories of this cinematic landmark. From all-night shoots to ostrich wrangling, Vicki shares a perspective few have ever heard, a journey into the making of a film that continues to define and defy its genre. This is a riveting conversation, and we’re so grateful to Vicki for pulling back the curtain and sharing her memories of a world that still fascinates us all.

164 // Blade Runner Ties: Devs
Alex Garland's Devs is a heady sci-fi series that asks some Big Questions about the nature of reality, the things that make us human, and the inescapable reality of loss—so if you love Blade Runner, you'll likely love this show!
In today's installment of our ongoing Blade Runner Ties series, Jaime and Patrick look at Devs through the lens of Blade Runner and Blade Runner 2049. Let us know if you have other suggestions for this series!

163 // Blade Runner Ties: HER
In the second installment of our Blade Runner Ties series, Patrick, Peter, and Jaime dive into Spike Jonze’s Her (2013). Set in a near-future world, the film tells the story of Theodore, a man who falls in love with his operating system—voiced beautifully by Scarlett Johansson. While there are undeniable connections to Blade Runner 2049 in the characters of JOI and Samantha, there are also some striking differences that set them apart. We explore these parallels and much more in this exciting new episode.
