<P> In October 1989, Arick discovered a 70mm print of Blade Runner at the Todd - AO vaults while searching for footage for Gypsy . Some time later, the print was rediscovered by two other film preservationists at the same vault while searching for footage from The Alamo . </P> <P> When the Cineplex Odeon Fairfax Theater in Los Angeles learned of this discovery, the theater management got permission from Warner Bros. to screen the print for a film festival set for May 1990 . Until the screening, no one had been aware that this print was the workprint version . Owing to this surprise, Warner Bros. booked more screenings of the now - advertised "Director's Cut" of Blade Runner in 15 American cities . </P> <P> Ridley Scott publicly disowned this workprint version of the film as a "director's cut," citing that it was roughly edited, lacked a key scene, and the climax did not feature the score composed for the film by Vangelis . (It featured a temporary track using Jerry Goldsmith's score from Planet of the Apes .) In response to Scott's dissatisfaction, Warner Bros. pulled theatrical screenings of the workprint in some cities, though it played at the NuArt Theater in Los Angeles and the Castro Theatre in San Francisco beginning in late 1991 . </P> <P> In response to the sold - out screenings of the workprint (and to screenings of the theatrical cut in Houston and Washington, D.C.) and to the film's resurgent cult popularity in the early' 90s, Warner Bros. decided to assemble a definitive director's cut of the film--with direction from Scott--for an official theatrical re-release in 1992 . </P>
