He thought he was a replicant his whole life. He is fine with it, being ordered around, mocked, hated, but he knows hes a replicant. Then the thought that he was a human, hits him like a freight train head one. All the things in his life, he had done it as a human, not as a replicant. He was lied to, so he could follow orders, that's what he thinks atleast. Then he found out that, he is still a replicant, he was never a human. Those memories, that he thought he went through, was not his. Even though it's based on a real memory, it was hers. Finally, he died as a replicant, but he died knowing he had done something human in his life.
yeah.. and its a very nice plot twist that makes you look back.. when you first see this scene you asume she is moved by K's memories.. but after the end you realice.. it was HER memories.. so not only is she reviving a traumitic event.. in that moment she knows somebody put her memories in at least one replicant... when she answers "yes.. SOMEONE really lived this"...she is talking about herself
who would know? the only person with those memories is the memory creator herself, and she probably won't say anything about it to officials/regulators, so it's not like anyone would know unless they dig really deep into it.
@@minhbui4817 prolly a bit too late but I think the point was to protect her so nobody would find out she is a daughter of a replicant so they(Deckard or other supporters of "replicant resistance") have used K as a decoy.
Good science fiction has to be a good cinema and good cinema always aspires to be art, and art always reaches the human soul, this film manages to reach the interior triggering emotions and thoughts that inspire us, good cinema changes our perception of world. It's been a while since I had a movie and this year with Blade Runner and Dunkirk I had it
@@jaredchacon2645 Storytelling is not the best. And the more i rewatch this movie the more i understand that even the story itself has less and less sense.
I'm curious. Is that moment the first time Ana is learning that her own genuine memories have been used without her knowledge to be put in the mind of a replicant (or perhaps more than one replicant, for that matter)? This scene has so much going on psychologically, and I can't figure out if she cries here because her real memory has been copied and stolen and used without her knowledge, or because she feels badly for a man who has been told all his life that he is one thing but now realizes that he actually is another ... or she's crying for both revelations. Strange that K isn't confused about her weeping, doesn't question it.
@@eduardo_corrochio I think she's crying for two reasons: a. She is afraid. She mentions earlier that it is illegal for a memory-maker to put real memories (such as their own) into their work. However, she also says that "there is always a little bit of an artist in their work", hinting that she has been consistently putting her memories in her work. When she realizes an officer of the LAPD is directly coming to her about potentially real memories, she immediately admits to it being real. This implies she cries out of fear of being exposed. b. The second reason you mentioned. She feels bad because she knows K will think he is the child born from a replicant. However, she can't tell him the truth (that it is her memory) or she would be incriminating herself. Overall, an overwhelming swarm of emotions is what causes her to cry.
It also makes sense in-universe. She neither confirms nor denies that it's her memory, because both would be illegal. One would be lying to a police officer and the other would break the law about not using real memories
Notice the machine at 2:35. It lowers and scans(?) the back of K's head to "read" his memory. Then notice K's mirror reflection in the next shot. Like the machine is looking into the back of his head, so he is "looking" into the back of her head; into her memory. It's no mistake that Roger Deakens created a comparability with these two shots. He literally in a matter of two shots tells us that K is not seeing his own memory, but, as his mirror reflection shows, is seeing Dr. Stellines; one of the key tenets of the plot. Brilliant cinematography.
Another thing that just dawned on me. The scene where he is scanning the DNA of the child he is also looking into a machinery; a similar scenario to this one. Once again he is deceived to believe that what he sees is his, i.e. his memory in this scene and his DNA in the other scene, when in actuality both of them belong to Stelline.
Brandon Marks just because the reflection is more pronounced doesn't mean it's a fact. According to the definition of assumption it is totally an assumption.
I remember reading the Roger Eberts review of Drive(2011) he compared Ryan Gosling to the likes of Clint Eastwood and the late Steve McQueen. Just like those two actors Ryan Gosling has the unique ability to let the audience know or feel what he is thinking simply through his expressions or the non verbal cues.
Josuke Ruins Everything. that’s another one of his skills-able to look sad and vulnerable one minute and terrifying/psychotic the next. I think of that scene in the elevator in Drive when he stomps the dude’s head in and then turns around to look at Irene and he looks like a scared, lost little boy-that’s not something many people can pull off. K has elements of this too where he’s believable as this literal killing machine but then his moments of weakness and doubt and insecurity aren’t awkward like they are for so many action stars. They feel REAL and I at least end up feeling incredible sympathy for him whereas when other “tough guy” characters get upset I just feel uncomfortable, lol.
There’s something almost...angelic to her. There’s a certain delicacy, a softness...she’s perfectly cast, especially for a movie where replicants are significantly compared to angels.
That is the smile of someone who is knows it's happy but at the same time knows he/she is very depressed inside and has no reason to be happy. It's the fakest of fake smiles because it's a real smile where there shouldn't be one.
This was my favorite film of 2017. I remember going through a big and ugly break up around the time it released. I was alone and dwelling on bad memories one night so I caught a midnight showing by myself. I remember how in awe I felt after leaving the theatre. It’s so odd how it felt therapeutic sitting in there, the scoring in particular was moving. It felt as if that was exactly the music I needed to hear at that moment in my life. Maybe I seem a bit cheesy sharing this but, those who know, know. Cinema is beautiful, and along with music, it’s medicinal in times of emotional sickness.
I had the same exact experience with this movie. Break up, bad memories, depression, and awe at how good this film was and everything it made me feel. The Rachel scene was tough to get through though. Still is tbh…
As tragic as this is, there’s still positivity to it because when he thought he was human, he acted human. He had human thoughts and human experiences. Showing that even though he was still a replicant, he was capable of humanity.
and he's a fucking replicant! this is one of the best scenes because he's kept an even keel the whole movie. this is the one moment when he realizes he's not the one born, yet he still shows such human emotion. this movie was fucking amazing
Movies like this will continue to do poorly because movie goers put less and less effort into their viewing. They don't want to ponder, self-reflect, or connect. They want to be amused. God, please don't let real cinema disappear.
Denty One Very well put, the average moviegoer pays to be entertained through generic movies that show them action without any substance, today's generation have short attention spans that need to be constantly bombarded with action to be entertained. This is a major part in why Blade Runner 2049 failed at the box office this is a film made in a generation that can't hold their attention through a 2 hour movie that questions reality and the meaning of being human. Today most people don't want to be challenged they want things to be easy, fun, and shutdown. It's a shame because movies are becoming less sophisticated inorder to make more money, movies now don't have to be competent they have to make money. While film's like Blade Runner respects the artistic medium to give it's audience a profound message of what it means to be alive through displaying the whole spectrum of our human emotions on screen. Hopefully we can get another Blade Runner in our lifetime because it's surely one of the best films ever made.
I missed the chance to catch this in theaters, but I got to see the blu-ray on my little home theater setup to experience it as well as I could. My friend, however, told me he saw it in cinemas and said there were a bunch of people leaving the theater in the middle of the movie. That just made me realize how many people don't appreciate true film like they used to and would rather have some fast paced action extravaganza. Not that those kinds of films can't be great or deep, but there are gems like Blade Runner 2049 that too many people miss out on (box office ratings are low for this film) or don't give the attention the films deserve. I loved this, and I love it even more because of how rare it is nowadays. I understand that the movie had a few pacing issues or dragged a little bit, but it was still very well paced in the end, especially for its story. It's sad that casual movie-goers are like this now, and masterpieces like this won't make the money they deserve. I guess the only bright side to the financial aspect of it is that we won't have to worry about this franchise being milked or remade (Thank God for that)
Lone Cyborg I hope you mean "another Blade Runner" as in another artistic film and story of this caliber because I hope the Blade Runner franchise specifically isn't added upon any further. Too many good franchises get milked and become stale or even get just one too many sequels, and I'd rather not see this one befall the same treatment.
+Illuminanonymous Considering the original movie came out over three decades ago before the dawn of the action movie boom and wasn't particularly successful then, this preening is absurd. It's the sequel to a movie most audience members nowadays weren't around to see. It's a good movie, but that's why it failed to sell.
Don't be a pretentious ass. There are plenty of successful movies that require reflection to appreciate. This movie did poorly because it was a sequel to a sleeper hit from 36 years previous. All you're doing is praising yourself by proxy for watching it and enjoying it, egotism of the rankest sort. "Real cinema" is in no danger of "disappearing".
4:18 I know that’s good acting when you can just change in a dime like that but with meme status and seeing it come out of nowhere I can’t help but laugh
I always thought Gosling was just a pretty boy actor that women loved because of the Notebook. This movie proved me wrong. When given the right role he’s good.
@@0mnicide The guys been nominated for an Academy Award twice. You don't get that by just being a pretty boy. What I adore about Gosling is his ability to chose the right movies. He has almost no stinkers on his very varied CV. That's very impressive.
@유키 Ohhhh maybe you had forgotten what Deckard, said if it’s been awhile since you watched it, but you know i try not to be a dick, and spoil stuff especially for movies this great, but well since you know basically he lost Rachel, like she was killed by other replicants, but he managed to survive, and get out with his daughter, though they eventually separated, and don’t meet back up till the end of 2049, and the way he talks about it, and her just kills me, because the man just wanted to be happy.
I love the 1st Blade Runner, but this is one of those rare sequels that I actually prefer. I might be in the minority, and sure, this won't change cinema in the same way the original did, but the story here is far more rewarding to be honest.
Honestly, I loved this one only. I love old movies too. However, this one just had the right perfect modern feel to it. The calm. The grey. The loneliness. The depression. The right kind of beauty... for me.
I can't decide which I like better. Rutger Hauer was so iconic as Roy Batty in the first. One of the most, if not the most empathetic "villain" in film history. And this one took the themes of the original and expanded on them perfectly and paired that with some of the most beautiful cinematography ever.
K watches his hand looking at a snowflake. Earlier, Joy goes out on a rainy night for the first time, she looks at her hand and starts reacting to the water showing herself wet. Later in the film, again, K looks at his hand. For me, the act of watching their own hands represents a moment of depression and internal conflict, like questioning their own existence after an event that made them react in a new way.
Staring at your hand is also considered, accurately or not, a way to tell whether or not you're dreaming and thus to give yourself a chance to enter a lucid state. The idea-and again, I can't guarantee it's correct-is that your dreaming mind has trouble "rendering" your hand responding to your attempt to move it. Fitting. Intended? I don't know.
It's actually a plausible symptom; depression and existentialosm offset newfound 'appreciation' for the everyday processes and happenings we all take for granted.
I don't remember where i heard once that our hands are the most prominent link to the reality. Is with our hands that we interact, shape and feel the material world.
It's a callback to the original movie where "eyes" were at the core of its symbolism. They talk about eyes, they show eyes. "Things that I've seen with your eyes". The eye lab replicants visit. Pris coloring her eyes with an airbrush. Even Roy, when he toys around with Sebastian, puts on a fake pair of eyes. Owl's eyes. Eyes galore! Eyes imply ability to observe coupled with inability to change. All they can do is cry. Hands, on the other hand, represent action. Being in touch vs. being detached. Even in this scene - the idea of keeping a person in a bubble - isolated from interaction ties into the overarching theme. The woman is forced to rely on fabricated experiences while having hardly any physical object to interact with, aside from the fancy programmer gadget that resembles a German mechanical calculator from a century ago. With this movie, they wanted a continuation, yet thematically it was a tit for tat trade. First movie - rain. Second movie - snow. First movie - tears in rain. Second movie - snowflakes in hand. Different path, same destination. To me this movie is an updated re-imagining and not really a progression. Also feels like the movie, despite being long, left some bits on the cutting room floor. Some scenes are abrupt and probably were meant to last longer than they did. Also feels like it was tweaked after going through a test audience. Like it had potential plot setups that didn't go anywhere and maybe were meant for sequels, like the underground replicant uprising.
I fell in love with Ana from her very first scene. I love how soft-spoken and empathetic she is, although you manage to sense it hiding her loneliness, and you can see the pain she feels for K in this scene. Carla Juri managed to make her so damn likable, and I'm more than happy to see she got her happy ending at the end of the movie.
Seconded. She is so beautiful, not referring to her looks. Her kindness. Her empathy. Her vulnerability. And her line of work: Creating beautiful memories for replicants to look back and smile upon. Now that's something.
@@naughtyskywalker9292 kindness in putting her memories into a synthetic being? Into having them believe that they are a real person? And then eventually having it stripped away from them?
You don’t need a follow up film. The real fans of this masterpiece can make art through books, animation and other media. This won’t get sullied by a rushed sequel. Just immerse yourself in it again and thank god you have the memories to appreciate it
I think it's a blessing in disguise. I'd rather have two masterful entries in a series than it become a cinematic universe with a new release every year. I think that would detract from the quality.
0:35 What makes this scene so great is how completely different it feels the second time you watch it, knowing what is really going on. And how well it works both ways.
I just love her character. Everything in her - voice, looks, corporal attitude -just screams kindness and almost childlike innocence. Like, is hard to imagine a person like that even cursing
I might be reading too far into this, but in a film as meticulously crafted as this, scrutinizing each detail might lead to a new revelation. Notice how K and Stelline are situated in reverse positions with Stelline’s memory device located directly behind K’s head. Now look at Stelline with the reflection of K located directly behind her head. Just as Stelline was observing K’s memories (implants) with that device, K was unknowingly observing Stelline’s authentic memories. Perhaps the position of K’s reflection being situated similar to Stelline’s device was a (very) subtle foreshadowing that K’s memories were not his, but Stelline’s.
You’re the only other person I’ve found that noticed this. I love that this movie is an art film that’s made for the masses to watch. Do you have a theory about the lights in this film? More specifically the vertical and horizontal lights that are placed in different moments throughout the movie. If not, really pay attention to that in your next viewing of the film because I’m almost certain it has a subtext that adds to the depth of the film.
Christoph Bueno I noticed the lights as well. It stuck out to me when I rewatched the scene where Luv confronts/kills Joshi. Unfortunately, I don’t have a theory yet for their significance. I was hoping someone else might pose one.
I love how K has remained almost completely emotionless for the entire movie up until this point and it finally just explodes out of him because he thinks he is thing he's been ordered to retire. Fucking compelling shit.
Is this like Rachel in reverse? She thought she was human but discovered she was a replicant - and it overturned her world. K thought he was a replicant, but finding out or thinking he's human - his world is also destroyed.
Her memories weren't stolen. She used her own memories as the basis for memories she manufactured and sold to be implanted in replicants. What's happening here is that K is asking if the memory is real. She watches and knows it is real because it is something she created based on her own experiences. She is rewatching a painful memory, while K is believing that it is HIS memory, not a fabricated one implanted in him.
That's the main point of the Blade Runner theme. What makes a Human, Human? Replicants are basically skin, flesh, blood, bones, just genetically altered and manufactured according to specific needs (strength, intelligence, labor, pleasure, etc). The main problem with them is that they are missing experiences up to their adulthood. You build and change into who you are from a lifetime of experiences, what happens when you don't have that or the ones you have are not "real", but manufactured? That's why replicants always seem "off" in the films and probably to their human counterparts in film. The doctor was born by natural means. She grew up, had experiences. While she lived most of her life in a literal bubble, she has something "authentic" that replicants don't naturally have. So is she a replicant or human? I guess you can say she's "technically" a replicant (of half replicant according to another theory) but what's the difference at that point? There really isn't any once a replicant is born from infant and live to adulthood, with natural memories and experiences.
This scene still stands out to me, simply for goslings explosion. All throughout the movie you’ve seen his frustration build up more and more and it finally comes out here. Really shows how great an actor he is
You are hit with a tidal wave of the emotions he's processing. His stare, his confusion, his shaky breathe, his acceptance, and then betrayal fed fury. This movie is literally perfect, I just wish it lasted longer.
When you realize your wife is fake, your ''love'' is fake, your memories are fake, your life is somehow fake, what else do you have to lose... Welcome to hard reality of 2049 (or sooner lol)
@@setsers1 lol did I really make this comment 2 years ago?? Where's time gone man. It is spot on though, even the expression on the woman's face is "umm I sympathise but I can't believe you didn't even save it".
They gave him a real memory without love (something amiss) which is why love is something he is very interested in. She's crying because most replicants would've turned into more violent machines but K is filled with empathy and compassion. He truly is unique.
Ive never seen existential pain expressed this well in any medium... Her tears. His mask breaking and all that confusion and rage concentrated into a visceral shout.. Amazing acting, amazing film. Both Blade Runners are perfect movies.
God this scene was so good. Stelline was such a fascinating character and I love the way it shows her "making memories" with such fine detail. Amazing VFX compositing and amazing acting all around. This movie is a gem.
K's fate is early human history condensed into the experiences of one being. Awakening. Realizing youre a child of god. Realizing that this realization was wrong - that you are nowhere special. Then deiciding that it doesnt matter. Realizing that you have to become your own master. Birth of free choice. And almost messianic self-sacrifice. I think people underestimate how huge K's character is.
@@maamardli it is basically existentialism. Dostoievsky, Kafka, Céline, Sartre, Camus, Nietzche and Kierkeegard are some of the best known and most important, the later two being mainly philosophers. Psychoanalysis also deals with these themes in great detail, Freud, Fromm, Becker, May, Rank and not exactly a psychoanalyst but Frankl also does.
the question was never if he was human, but if he was born or made, if he was born he would be half human, half replicant.. not human. but in the end he is just a replicant as Dr. Stelline is the half breed.
imagine thinking that because jew god isn't the ultimate deity earth is "nowhere special" LOL y'all niggas need Manly P. Hall and Schopenhauer and also Zen
This scene has been my favorite since I first saw it. Her soft voice and the quiet clicks of the remote are so soothing. It’s also really cool how her reaction to the memory takes on a whole new meaning when you learn the twist
People really don’t give Gosling enough credit for his acting. He can say so much without having to actually say anything. He’s like the Golden Age stars that way, like Montgomery Clift and Gregory Peck!
I've been really addicted to this film for the last two months. It just seems to mirror where we're at in our minds and civilization today. It's eerily accurate.
I felt an immense amount of sadness, happiness, and dread in this scene at the same time. Everything about this character, her environment, the detail she put into her work, it was all so beautifully crafted I cant put into words how much it affected me.
It really hurts when looking into Gosling's eyes in this movie. You can feel all his pains, struggles and sorrow. I became a HUGE fan of him after this movie. He is made for Blade Runner 2049 and I couldn't think of any other male actor who could outact him (even though they are also great actors).
I miss her.. I see her only in my dreams.. anytime I see her.. it’s as if she’s there, I can feel the warm of her hug only to wake up knowing it was just a dream.. a memory which only I can replay & relive in my head
I never in a million years could have expected to enjoy a sequel as much as the original. This movie was a masterful continuation of one of the best sci-fi films in history.
I feel details in the scene, and how can you not ignore Her. She stole this moment in the movie, with her face expresion and her acting, obvioulsy denis wanted to portrait her beatiful upper lip and smile, gorgeous.
Ryan Gosling is really fantastic at subtle performances, and this film really highlighted that talent -- Simply by looking into his eyes, you are able to feel what he's feeling. The entire film was a masterpiece. Roger Deakin's masterful cinematography (that should finally give him an Oscar), the jaw-dropping visual effects, immersive score, powerful performances , fantastic sound design, and complex themes were all beautifully executed by a visionary director. It definitely my favorite film of 2017, and one of the best science fiction films in recent memory.
only recent memory? I think were talking about the whole history of movies. from a directorial, sound design, cinematography, etc and not influence standpoint I think it is the greatest film of all time.
Man the acting in this scene and really in the whole film, is so underrated. Ryan Gosling is such a subtle and quiet actor and then when he lets out bursts of emotion it feels so real. And even though Harrison Ford isn’t in the film for very long, I feel like he gave one of his best performances in YEARS as Deckard.
You knew this movie was going to be a banger when in that first scene Dave Batista of all people said, "Because you've never seen and miracle." And the quality carried through all the way to this scene and to the end.
The realization that this was her memory implanted into him, and his realization that it wasn't his was a gut punch to an epic degree. My brother and I walked out of the theater utterly speechless.
K realizing he isnt special is one of the hardest scenes for me to get through. I mean nothing compared to the red coat scene from schindlers but. Still epic cinema
At this time, we don't know Ana is the person's memory he is having. So seeing a replicant just freak the fuck out realizing that he may be human is easily one of the best things I have seen in a movie. Replicants usually show no emotion whatsoever, every time they do, it gets them killed. So seeing him just snap was so awesome.
i watched this movie in imax and it was probably the best experience I've had in a movie theater.. the score was so moving and the cinematography was breathtaking.. what a great gem. thank u Denis Villeneuve 🙌🏻
Carla Juri made such an impression in this one scene. It really made the rest of how the story plays out work for me. When it got towards the end and it revealed who she was it felt exactly right, and it wouldn't have if the casting and performance here weren't so good.
Dr Stelline's comments on pure/real memory vs artificial are so spot-on. 30 years ago I had one of the best experiences of my life as an 11 year old at summer camp in Colorado. I can still see the mountains/trees but what really brings back the purest form of that memory was the way the pine needle smell made me feel like the whole world was in front of me. I'll never forget that.
This is the film that made me like Ryan Gosling as an actor. I can just imagine the feeling of when your limbs get all cold from the combination of fear and horrified realization.
Carla Juri's performance is so uniquely beautiful, just in the way she carries herself, her body language, and her control over her voice, there's something...angelic about it. A fitting parallel to the way Wallace constantly calls his replicants his "angels," the first natural-born replicant truly seems to be one.
The way she acted reminds me of my adopting mother. And how he reacted when he thought he was the boy i did too. When i found out i was adopted i punched the wall so many times i broke afew bricks and almost all the bones in my hands. The pain of finding out the woman i grew up loving as a mom wasnt my real mom messed me up. Till this day i dont know who my actual mom is but i take care of the woman that raised me. My pain is passing by an older woman and say hi how are you and never know that the woman who smiled at me was my actual mother.
Sometimes the people that love us withhold the truth from us as to not hurt us, I think she loved you more than a parent because she didn't spare herself loss and pain for you - To not be given these creates its own nightmare.
A mother isn’t a biological thing. That’s just a genetic ancestor, true parenting is far more than that. You had a mother, a real mother, unlike the fake superficial or straight up abusive parents so many people have. I would know. And also be thankful you got adopted. Biology is nothing compared to the soul.
marachuker right...whoever was casting director and worked with Denis on her character needs a serious bonus because it’s amazing how an actress like Carla was chosen and both her looks and performance compliment the story f the film
Gosling is the best facial actor out there. What I mean is he’s a man of few words, but that’s a good thing. What it does for me, when it’s just him having facial reactions is put myself in his shoes trying to interpret what’s going on. Hard to explain, but it kind of put’s you in the driver seat to have your own reaction to things gosling is exposed to throughout his movies, like what would I be thinking in that situation. This is a beautiful example, and exist throughout the whole movie

SOMEONE really lived this"...she is talking about herself
I don't understand why K has her memory even though it is illegal to give replicants real memories.
who would know? the only person with those memories is the memory creator herself, and she probably won't say anything about it to officials/regulators, so it's not like anyone would know unless they dig really deep into it.
I know right. Tears your heart out.

@@jaredchacon2645 Storytelling is not the best. And the more i rewatch this movie the more i understand that even the story itself has less and less sense.
A Flawless Masterpiece.
"Someone lived this, yes. This happened." The power of subtle writing when left open to interpretation.
I'm curious. Is that moment the first time Ana is learning that her own genuine memories have been used without her knowledge to be put in the mind of a replicant (or perhaps more than one replicant, for that matter)?
This scene has so much going on psychologically, and I can't figure out if she cries here because her real memory has been copied and stolen and used without her knowledge, or because she feels badly for a man who has been told all his life that he is one thing but now realizes that he actually is another ... or she's crying for both revelations.
Strange that K isn't confused about her weeping, doesn't question it.
@@eduardo_corrochio I think she's crying for two reasons:
a. She is afraid. She mentions earlier that it is illegal for a memory-maker to put real memories (such as their own) into their work. However, she also says that "there is always a little bit of an artist in their work", hinting that she has been consistently putting her memories in her work. When she realizes an officer of the LAPD is directly coming to her about potentially real memories, she immediately admits to it being real. This implies she cries out of fear of being exposed.
b. The second reason you mentioned. She feels bad because she knows K will think he is the child born from a replicant. However, she can't tell him the truth (that it is her memory) or she would be incriminating herself.
Overall, an overwhelming swarm of emotions is what causes her to cry.
@@westtexas_4491 Thank you. Appreciate that response.
I love how she’s crying cuz she knows it’s her
It also makes sense in-universe. She neither confirms nor denies that it's her memory, because both would be illegal. One would be lying to a police officer and the other would break the law about not using real memories
4:17 - When I realized I have to talk to girls to get a gf
Me when I find out women exist.
🤣
true story
@@somerandomname3124 So it was true all along.
🤣
Notice the machine at 2:35. It lowers and scans(?) the back of K's head to "read" his memory. Then notice K's mirror reflection in the next shot. Like the machine is looking into the back of his head, so he is "looking" into the back of her head; into her memory. It's no mistake that Roger Deakens created a comparability with these two shots. He literally in a matter of two shots tells us that K is not seeing his own memory, but, as his mirror reflection shows, is seeing Dr. Stellines; one of the key tenets of the plot. Brilliant cinematography.
Another thing that just dawned on me. The scene where he is scanning the DNA of the child he is also looking into a machinery; a similar scenario to this one. Once again he is deceived to believe that what he sees is his, i.e. his memory in this scene and his DNA in the other scene, when in actuality both of them belong to Stelline.
Damn, he put so much love into this film.
Thats a nice insight but thats also assumption just like everyone elses theories.
Niiiiii- I don't think it's an assumption, his reflection is so much more pronounced than hers is when Ryan's in frame.
Brandon Marks just because the reflection is more pronounced doesn't mean it's a fact. According to the definition of assumption it is totally an assumption.
3:19 & 3:44 Ryan Gosling has a rare talent to act only with eyes. That's why he made this scene so emotional.
He is gifted to perform a real human bean
I remember reading the Roger Eberts review of Drive(2011) he compared Ryan Gosling to the likes of Clint Eastwood and the late Steve McQueen. Just like those two actors Ryan Gosling has the unique ability to let the audience know or feel what he is thinking simply through his expressions or the non verbal cues.
He's Gene Wilder 2.0. Look at the eyes. It's the ability to convey a profound depth of sadness behind every stare.
The best actors are the ones who do that
Josuke Ruins Everything. that’s another one of his skills-able to look sad and vulnerable one minute and terrifying/psychotic the next. I think of that scene in the elevator in Drive when he stomps the dude’s head in and then turns around to look at Irene and he looks like a scared, lost little boy-that’s not something many people can pull off. K has elements of this too where he’s believable as this literal killing machine but then his moments of weakness and doubt and insecurity aren’t awkward like they are for so many action stars. They feel REAL and I at least end up feeling incredible sympathy for him whereas when other “tough guy” characters get upset I just feel uncomfortable, lol.
She has a strange unique smile and its amazing
She also has the most soothing voice I have ever heard. I could fall asleep listening to her.
calm
There’s something almost...angelic to her. There’s a certain delicacy, a softness...she’s perfectly cast, especially for a movie where replicants are significantly compared to angels.
That is the smile of someone who is knows it's happy but at the same time knows he/she is very depressed inside and has no reason to be happy. It's the fakest of fake smiles because it's a real smile where there shouldn't be one.
uome20bukz She should do ASMR
This was my favorite film of 2017. I remember going through a big and ugly break up around the time it released. I was alone and dwelling on bad memories one night so I caught a midnight showing by myself. I remember how in awe I felt after leaving the theatre. It’s so odd how it felt therapeutic sitting in there, the scoring in particular was moving. It felt as if that was exactly the music I needed to hear at that moment in my life. Maybe I seem a bit cheesy sharing this but, those who know, know. Cinema is beautiful, and along with music, it’s medicinal in times of emotional sickness.
Yo, please reply to me!
10/10 comment. thank you for this.
It's amazing how the day you watch this movie can have a big impact in your life
I had a similar experience as you, it's crazy how this movie hits you when you're in a certain emotional state.
I had the same exact experience with this movie. Break up, bad memories, depression, and awe at how good this film was and everything it made me feel. The Rachel scene was tough to get through though. Still is tbh…
As tragic as this is, there’s still positivity to it because when he thought he was human, he acted human. He had human thoughts and human experiences. Showing that even though he was still a replicant, he was capable of humanity.
Fucking absolute banger of a movie

gskjd jkdghkdgbs Everything is cringe when you're 12 yeard old
Not as "cringe" as this post.
Movies like this will continue to do poorly because movie goers put less and less effort into their viewing. They don't want to ponder, self-reflect, or connect. They want to be amused. God, please don't let real cinema disappear.
Denty One Very well put, the average moviegoer pays to be entertained through generic movies that show them action without any substance, today's generation have short attention spans that need to be constantly bombarded with action to be entertained. This is a major part in why Blade Runner 2049 failed at the box office this is a film made in a generation that can't hold their attention through a 2 hour movie that questions reality and the meaning of being human. Today most people don't want to be challenged they want things to be easy, fun, and shutdown. It's a shame because movies are becoming less sophisticated inorder to make more money, movies now don't have to be competent they have to make money. While film's like Blade Runner respects the artistic medium to give it's audience a profound message of what it means to be alive through displaying the whole spectrum of our human emotions on screen. Hopefully we can get another Blade Runner in our lifetime because it's surely one of the best films ever made.
I missed the chance to catch this in theaters, but I got to see the blu-ray on my little home theater setup to experience it as well as I could. My friend, however, told me he saw it in cinemas and said there were a bunch of people leaving the theater in the middle of the movie. That just made me realize how many people don't appreciate true film like they used to and would rather have some fast paced action extravaganza. Not that those kinds of films can't be great or deep, but there are gems like Blade Runner 2049 that too many people miss out on (box office ratings are low for this film) or don't give the attention the films deserve. I loved this, and I love it even more because of how rare it is nowadays. I understand that the movie had a few pacing issues or dragged a little bit, but it was still very well paced in the end, especially for its story. It's sad that casual movie-goers are like this now, and masterpieces like this won't make the money they deserve. I guess the only bright side to the financial aspect of it is that we won't have to worry about this franchise being milked or remade (Thank God for that)
Lone Cyborg I hope you mean "another Blade Runner" as in another artistic film and story of this caliber because I hope the Blade Runner franchise specifically isn't added upon any further. Too many good franchises get milked and become stale or even get just one too many sequels, and I'd rather not see this one befall the same treatment.
+Illuminanonymous Considering the original movie came out over three decades ago before the dawn of the action movie boom and wasn't particularly successful then, this preening is absurd. It's the sequel to a movie most audience members nowadays weren't around to see. It's a good movie, but that's why it failed to sell.
Don't be a pretentious ass. There are plenty of successful movies that require reflection to appreciate. This movie did poorly because it was a sequel to a sleeper hit from 36 years previous. All you're doing is praising yourself by proxy for watching it and enjoying it, egotism of the rankest sort. "Real cinema" is in no danger of "disappearing".

It really tore me apart that, and when Deckard, talked about what happened to him after the original Blade Runner.
@유키 Well i don’t want to spoil you if you don’t know.
@유키 Ohhhh maybe you had forgotten what Deckard, said if it’s been awhile since you watched it, but you know i try not to be a dick, and spoil stuff especially for movies this great, but well since you know basically he lost Rachel, like she was killed by other replicants, but he managed to survive, and get out with his daughter, though they eventually separated, and don’t meet back up till the end of 2049, and the way he talks about it, and her just kills me, because the man just wanted to be happy.

I love the 1st Blade Runner, but this is one of those rare sequels that I actually prefer. I might be in the minority, and sure, this won't change cinema in the same way the original did, but the story here is far more rewarding to be honest.
agreed basic idea taken to their conclusion.
We now live in the year of Blade Runner.
Honestly, I loved this one only. I love old movies too. However, this one just had the right perfect modern feel to it. The calm. The grey. The loneliness. The depression. The right kind of beauty... for me.
I can't decide which I like better. Rutger Hauer was so iconic as Roy Batty in the first. One of the most, if not the most empathetic "villain" in film history. And this one took the themes of the original and expanded on them perfectly and paired that with some of the most beautiful cinematography ever.
You not the only one, I liked the first film but I absolutely love the sequel! It's an Artistic Masterpiece!

Replicant ASMR???
Like chicken tenders or chocolate mousse?
K watches his hand looking at a snowflake. Earlier, Joy goes out on a rainy night for the first time, she looks at her hand and starts reacting to the water showing herself wet. Later in the film, again, K looks at his hand. For me, the act of watching their own hands represents a moment of depression and internal conflict, like questioning their own existence after an event that made them react in a new way.
"What have I done?"
Staring at your hand is also considered, accurately or not, a way to tell whether or not you're dreaming and thus to give yourself a chance to enter a lucid state. The idea-and again, I can't guarantee it's correct-is that your dreaming mind has trouble "rendering" your hand responding to your attempt to move it. Fitting. Intended? I don't know.
It's actually a plausible symptom; depression and existentialosm offset newfound 'appreciation' for the everyday processes and happenings we all take for granted.
I don't remember where i heard once that our hands are the most prominent link to the reality. Is with our hands that we interact, shape and feel the material world.
It's a callback to the original movie where "eyes" were at the core of its symbolism. They talk about eyes, they show eyes. "Things that I've seen with your eyes". The eye lab replicants visit. Pris coloring her eyes with an airbrush. Even Roy, when he toys around with Sebastian, puts on a fake pair of eyes. Owl's eyes. Eyes galore! Eyes imply ability to observe coupled with inability to change. All they can do is cry. Hands, on the other hand, represent action. Being in touch vs. being detached. Even in this scene - the idea of keeping a person in a bubble - isolated from interaction ties into the overarching theme. The woman is forced to rely on fabricated experiences while having hardly any physical object to interact with, aside from the fancy programmer gadget that resembles a German mechanical calculator from a century ago.
With this movie, they wanted a continuation, yet thematically it was a tit for tat trade. First movie - rain. Second movie - snow. First movie - tears in rain. Second movie - snowflakes in hand. Different path, same destination. To me this movie is an updated re-imagining and not really a progression. Also feels like the movie, despite being long, left some bits on the cutting room floor. Some scenes are abrupt and probably were meant to last longer than they did. Also feels like it was tweaked after going through a test audience. Like it had potential plot setups that didn't go anywhere and maybe were meant for sequels, like the underground replicant uprising.
4:16 Damn. He's literally me.
I fell in love with Ana from her very first scene. I love how soft-spoken and empathetic she is, although you manage to sense it hiding her loneliness, and you can see the pain she feels for K in this scene. Carla Juri managed to make her so damn likable, and I'm more than happy to see she got her happy ending at the end of the movie.
Seconded.
She is so beautiful, not referring to her looks. Her kindness. Her empathy. Her vulnerability.
And her line of work: Creating beautiful memories for replicants to look back and smile upon. Now that's something.

Saddest part of this film; not this scene but knowing there won't be a follow up film because of the box office failure.
Armand Rodriguez thanks to sheeple who can’t handle 2hrs and 44 min of pure art
You don’t need a follow up film. The real fans of this masterpiece can make art through books, animation and other media. This won’t get sullied by a rushed sequel. Just immerse yourself in it again and thank god you have the memories to appreciate it
Why do you need another movie, if you can watch this over and over again and still learn something new?
I think it's a blessing in disguise. I'd rather have two masterful entries in a series than it become a cinematic universe with a new release every year. I think that would detract from the quality.
Don't worry give it another 25 years and we'll get Blade Runner 2079
0:35 What makes this scene so great is how completely different it feels the second time you watch it, knowing what is really going on. And how well it works both ways.
I just love her character. Everything in her - voice, looks, corporal attitude -just screams kindness and almost childlike innocence. Like, is hard to imagine a person like that even cursing
I like to think that her tears are not just for her, but for the false hope her memories will give him. It seems like it deeply affected her.

+Spectans1 Best movie I've seen in YEARS...on many different levels.
Spectans1 indeed
Every scene in BR 2049 was my favourite.
I might be reading too far into this, but in a film as meticulously crafted as this, scrutinizing each detail might lead to a new revelation.
Notice how K and Stelline are situated in reverse positions with Stelline’s memory device located directly behind K’s head. Now look at Stelline with the reflection of K located directly behind her head. Just as Stelline was observing K’s memories (implants) with that device, K was unknowingly observing Stelline’s authentic memories. Perhaps the position of K’s reflection being situated similar to Stelline’s device was a (very) subtle foreshadowing that K’s memories were not his, but Stelline’s.
Thanks for your explanation I keep getting confused by this scene even with repeated viewing.
Holy shit never noticed that before. U're a fuckin master. And it shows of how Godly Denis really is as a director.
You’re the only other person I’ve found that noticed this. I love that this movie is an art film that’s made for the masses to watch. Do you have a theory about the lights in this film? More specifically the vertical and horizontal lights that are placed in different moments throughout the movie. If not, really pay attention to that in your next viewing of the film because I’m almost certain it has a subtext that adds to the depth of the film.
Christoph Bueno I noticed the lights as well. It stuck out to me when I rewatched the scene where Luv confronts/kills Joshi. Unfortunately, I don’t have a theory yet for their significance. I was hoping someone else might pose one.
Whoa.
When she said, “There’s a bit of every artist in their work.” I teared up. 😣
What a fantastic performance by Ryan Gosling. The anger he portrayed was so genuine and phenomenal. Kudos to his hard work
I love how K has remained almost completely emotionless for the entire movie up until this point and it finally just explodes out of him because he thinks he is thing he's been ordered to retire. Fucking compelling shit.
Is this like Rachel in reverse? She thought she was human but discovered she was a replicant - and it overturned her world. K thought he was a replicant, but finding out or thinking he's human - his world is also destroyed.
K isn't a human, he is a replicant or *skinjob*, if you watched the movie you would know what is going on :3
Her memories weren't stolen. She used her own memories as the basis for memories she manufactured and sold to be implanted in replicants. What's happening here is that K is asking if the memory is real. She watches and knows it is real because it is something she created based on her own experiences. She is rewatching a painful memory, while K is believing that it is HIS memory, not a fabricated one implanted in him.
@Faxi, .. anthtan never said K is a human, he said "or thinking he's human". Reread plz.
That's the main point of the Blade Runner theme. What makes a Human, Human? Replicants are basically skin, flesh, blood, bones, just genetically altered and manufactured according to specific needs (strength, intelligence, labor, pleasure, etc). The main problem with them is that they are missing experiences up to their adulthood. You build and change into who you are from a lifetime of experiences, what happens when you don't have that or the ones you have are not "real", but manufactured? That's why replicants always seem "off" in the films and probably to their human counterparts in film.
The doctor was born by natural means. She grew up, had experiences. While she lived most of her life in a literal bubble, she has something "authentic" that replicants don't naturally have. So is she a replicant or human? I guess you can say she's "technically" a replicant (of half replicant according to another theory) but what's the difference at that point? There really isn't any once a replicant is born from infant and live to adulthood, with natural memories and experiences.
Jeezus that is brilliant observation
This scene still stands out to me, simply for goslings explosion. All throughout the movie you’ve seen his frustration build up more and more and it finally comes out here. Really shows how great an actor he is
You are hit with a tidal wave of the emotions he's processing. His stare, his confusion, his shaky breathe, his acceptance, and then betrayal fed fury. This movie is literally perfect, I just wish it lasted longer.
That's some amazing acting from Gosling at 4:16. It's just him shouting but it felt so real, you can see the pain in his face and total anger.

it sound like french accent to me. and at their first metting she tells him " un visiteur" 'a visitor'. but yeah she is swiss-italian.
K's fate is early human history condensed into the experiences of one being. Awakening. Realizing youre a child of god. Realizing that this realization was wrong - that you are nowhere special. Then deiciding that it doesnt matter. Realizing that you have to become your own master. Birth of free choice. And almost messianic self-sacrifice. I think people underestimate how huge K's character is.
Very interesting point of view, is there a book or a movie do you recommend about this subject?
@@maamardli it is basically existentialism. Dostoievsky, Kafka, Céline, Sartre, Camus, Nietzche and Kierkeegard are some of the best known and most important, the later two being mainly philosophers. Psychoanalysis also deals with these themes in great detail, Freud, Fromm, Becker, May, Rank and not exactly a psychoanalyst but Frankl also does.
I mean wrong conclusion but I guess what floats your boat
the question was never if he was human, but if he was born or made, if he was born he would be half human, half replicant.. not human. but in the end he is just a replicant as Dr. Stelline is the half breed.

People really don’t give Gosling enough credit for his acting. He can say so much without having to actually say anything. He’s like the Golden Age stars that way, like Montgomery Clift and Gregory Peck!
I've been really addicted to this film for the last two months. It just seems to mirror where we're at in our minds and civilization today. It's eerily accurate.
I felt an immense amount of sadness, happiness, and dread in this scene at the same time. Everything about this character, her environment, the detail she put into her work, it was all so beautifully crafted I cant put into words how much it affected me.
It really hurts when looking into Gosling's eyes in this movie. You can feel all his pains, struggles and sorrow. I became a HUGE fan of him after this movie. He is made for Blade Runner 2049 and I couldn't think of any other male actor who could outact him (even though they are also great actors).
I miss her.. I see her only in my dreams.. anytime I see her.. it’s as if she’s there, I can feel the warm of her hug only to wake up knowing it was just a dream.. a memory which only I can replay & relive in my head

Ryan Gosling is really fantastic at subtle performances, and this film really highlighted that talent -- Simply by looking into his eyes, you are able to feel what he's feeling.
The entire film was a masterpiece. Roger Deakin's masterful cinematography (that should finally give him an Oscar), the jaw-dropping visual effects, immersive score, powerful performances , fantastic sound design, and complex themes were all beautifully executed by a visionary director. It definitely my favorite film of 2017, and one of the best science fiction films in recent memory.
I could not agree more
only recent memory? I think were talking about the whole history of movies. from a directorial, sound design, cinematography, etc and not influence standpoint I think it is the greatest film of all time.
Man the acting in this scene and really in the whole film, is so underrated. Ryan Gosling is such a subtle and quiet actor and then when he lets out bursts of emotion it feels so real. And even though Harrison Ford isn’t in the film for very long, I feel like he gave one of his best performances in YEARS as Deckard.

She probably told Deckard to put it back when he met her
Hello father. Could you help me put back the chair? Its driving me crazy.
Who feeds her, for that matter? She must have an employee or service come in.
Carl White is she locked in there forever?
@@amko6358 she has an immunodeficiency disorder from what I remember. They needed to keep her away from anything outside.
For me this is hands down one of the most beautiful scenes in film.
The realization that this was her memory implanted into him, and his realization that it wasn't his was a gut punch to an epic degree. My brother and I walked out of the theater utterly speechless.
K realizing he isnt special is one of the hardest scenes for me to get through. I mean nothing compared to the red coat scene from schindlers but. Still epic cinema
The cake is a lie
La Encontramos duh it’s a implanted memory stupid
Also the first cake that appears when Stelline starts making the cake is similar to the one in Portal
Brysen1439 dude, you really need to understand Sci-fi so damn good
Oh shit a time traveller
Imagine if there was a portal gun in the blade runner universe
At this time, we don't know Ana is the person's memory he is having.
So seeing a replicant just freak the fuck out realizing that he may be human is easily one of the best things I have seen in a movie. Replicants usually show no emotion whatsoever, every time they do, it gets them killed. So seeing him just snap was so awesome.
i watched this movie in imax and it was probably the best experience I've had in a movie theater.. the score was so moving and the cinematography was breathtaking.. what a great gem. thank u Denis Villeneuve 🙌🏻
As much as I try I can’t hold back tears. This makes me cry every time. I remember crying in the theater oh it was so unbelievable!
Uncontrollable tears!
This is my favorite scene in my favorite movie. There is so much happening behind this scene that we don't realize until the end. So much depth.
Carla Juri made such an impression in this one scene. It really made the rest of how the story plays out work for me. When it got towards the end and it revealed who she was it felt exactly right, and it wouldn't have if the casting and performance here weren't so good.
Dr Stelline's comments on pure/real memory vs artificial are so spot-on. 30 years ago I had one of the best experiences of my life as an 11 year old at summer camp in Colorado. I can still see the mountains/trees but what really brings back the purest form of that memory was the way the pine needle smell made me feel like the whole world was in front of me. I'll never forget that.
Absolute masterpiece. One of the best sequels ever made.
3:07 She sees him parked under a freeway, in a silver Chevy Impala, whilst a helicopter searches for him
This is the film that made me like Ryan Gosling as an actor. I can just imagine the feeling of when your limbs get all cold from the combination of fear and horrified realization.
I find it the most poetic scene of the whole movie..... With the candle lights fading away..... And the most intense..... Such a beauty
If this movie doesn’t get at least 5 academy awards i swear to god
Akis Afentoulidis it was nominated for 5 so fingers crossed
Carla Juri's performance is so uniquely beautiful, just in the way she carries herself, her body language, and her control over her voice, there's something...angelic about it. A fitting parallel to the way Wallace constantly calls his replicants his "angels," the first natural-born replicant truly seems to be one.
The way she acted reminds me of my adopting mother. And how he reacted when he thought he was the boy i did too. When i found out i was adopted i punched the wall so many times i broke afew bricks and almost all the bones in my hands. The pain of finding out the woman i grew up loving as a mom wasnt my real mom messed me up. Till this day i dont know who my actual mom is but i take care of the woman that raised me. My pain is passing by an older woman and say hi how are you and never know that the woman who smiled at me was my actual mother.
Pain.
she is your real mother, she didn’t give birth to you but she loved and raised you as much as as mother could :)
Sometimes the people that love us withhold the truth from us as to not hurt us, I think she loved you more than a parent because she didn't spare herself loss and pain for you - To not be given these creates its own nightmare.
A mother isn’t a biological thing. That’s just a genetic ancestor, true parenting is far more than that. You had a mother, a real mother, unlike the fake superficial or straight up abusive parents so many people have. I would know. And also be thankful you got adopted. Biology is nothing compared to the soul.
4:17 Pov :- youre alone at home and hungry and decide to make mac n cheese but your house has no cheese or mac

Carla Juri she really does have that Sean Young look... pretty easy to believe that they would be daughter & mother
marachuker right...whoever was casting director and worked with Denis on her character needs a serious bonus because it’s amazing how an actress like Carla was chosen and both her looks and performance compliment the story f the film
I come back to this scene very often because it's so superb. She is incredible.
4:15 me when I found out Blade Runner wasn't nominated for Best Picture
Travis Houze Same
i simply live with the pain
Yeah, I'm thinking he's literally me.
Me too. He's literally me, like you.
Gosling is the best facial actor out there. What I mean is he’s a man of few words, but that’s a good thing. What it does for me, when it’s just him having facial reactions is put myself in his shoes trying to interpret what’s going on. Hard to explain, but it kind of put’s you in the driver seat to have your own reaction to things gosling is exposed to throughout his movies, like what would I be thinking in that situation. This is a beautiful example, and exist throughout the whole movie
Finally saw this movie after all these years and what a masterpiece of a film
This film is a masterpiece and will be remembered for years to come
The worst part about this is realizing later that K isn’t even the main character of his own story. A feeling that resonates with young men today.
She cries because it happened to her. He breaks because it didnt happen to him. Devastating irony.
