guy who wrote blade runner trawling around gathering the scraps of post-apocalyptic movies to make his own thing. rules obviously. we got not-bald-yet delroy lindo, we got not-wide-yet vinnie d'onofrio. hugh keays-byrne is there because why the hell not. cinematographer for mad max is here too in case it wasn't obvious enough what we're ripping off here. they do that one shot from the searchers like 15 times

everyone doing a+ work and hauer continues to be the hottest a guy has ever made a widow's peak. shoutout to the makeup guy because all the scars look gnarly as shit

lots of stuff here about the struggle for upward mobility and the how the upper class will never truly accept you no matter how much you beat yourself up for them but like, it's a sports apocalypse movie. they're all like that
