Tribute of the Week
It was with great sadness that we heard that Rutger Hauer had passed away at the age of 75. He will forever be remembered as the ominous replicant Roy Batty in Blade Runner, a role he made iconic by helping write the now-famous "tears in rain" speech. But the Dutch actor, who excelled in playing villains, also made memorable appearances in The Hitcher, Batman Begins, and Sin City among his 172 IMDb credits. Paying tribute, director Guillermo del Toro said Hauer had brought "truth, power and beauty to his films."
