Excellent in the The Hitcher
Rewrote his Blade Runner speech which became iconic
And sexy as hell in this Kylie video
Rest in peace Rutger Daffodil

Loved him in The Hitcher.

Great actor RIP

I saw him in the Hitcher in my teens and was never so creeped out by a film. Loved him from then on. Sad to see he's gone.

The Hitcher was probably the scariest film I'd ever seen when I watched it. RIP Rutger Sad

Yes. Great actor. Sad news

Ah, man...

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.

Amazing monologue. Great actor.

It's a shame.

Ladyhawke

I was just going to post this thread...I'm very sorry that he's died. I liked him as actor. He was apparently a nice guy too.

It's always baffled me that he never really cracked into A-list roles - for me, he was cut from a similar cloth to Christopher Walken and had more charisma than most.

BoreOfWhabylon · 24/07/2019 20:46

So sad. RIP Rutger.

So sad. Ladyhawke is one of my all time favourites. Hauer did all his own sword fights and equestrian stuff too.

Mistlewoeandwhine · 24/07/2019 20:57

I met him once. He was a lovely, polite and intelligent person. Most of his work in later years benefited his charity for women and children affected by AIDs. I am sitting here crying .

Bladerunner is my most favourite film ever, such sad news..
Mitzik that speech on the rooftop in the rain, has me welling up every time i hear it, it still really effects me after all these years and so so many watches..
