Blade Runner

01/01/1982 (Circa)View on timeline


Similarly, in Blade Runner (1982), Rachel, a genetically manufactured “replicant,” is fitted with long-term implanted memories going back to childhood. That those memories are someone else’s does not make them any less significant for her sense of self. On the contrary, the psychological continuity between the alien memories and her own coalesce into one personality. To sum up: In film, amnesia disrupts personal identity more than false memories.
