Now it’s common practice for Hollywood’s major studios to release not only photos from behind the scenes, but entire, detailed making of documentaries detailing everything that happened during the filming of their latest blockbuster. But that wasn’t the norm at all back in 1982 when Ridley Scott, Harrison Ford, and Rutger Hauer were on set shooting Blade Runner.
