Life Rutger Hauer receives special tribute Posted on February 11, 2020 1 min read Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Share on Google+ The image of Rutger Hauer was in the block ‘In memoriam’ during the Oscar presentation, in which the Academy that awards the prizes remembers deceased film heroes. He died in July and was honored in this way. During the compilation, Billie Eilish sang a cover of the song ‘Yesterday’ by the Beatles. Rutger worked in Hollywood from the early 1980s, where he played in hits such as Nighthawks, The Hitcher, Batman Begins and, one of his biggest hits, Blade Runner. In this film, Rutger plays the high-tech robot Roy Batty, who is hunted by blade runner Rick Deckard (Harrison Ford). Just before Roy dies, because his four-year life span is over, he speaks out memorable words that almost every film connoisseur can come up with by heart: ‘I’ve seen things you people wouldn’t believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. ”
