BLADE RUNNER Directed by Ridley Scott Screenplay by Hampton Fancher and David Peoples...
SIDNEY BRUHL lives in the wilds of East Hampton with his dotty wife Myra and her brown Mercedes. She's very rich; he's written four Broadway flops. She screams when the telephone rings; he's snide, dry, urbane and British. She has a weak heart; he collects antique instruments of destruction. And they don't get along too well either.
