Rutger Hauer

biography:
Rutger Oelsen Hauer (January 23, 1944 – July 19, 2019) was a Dutch film actor. He was well known for his roles in Flesh + Blood, Blind Fury, Blade Runner, The Hitcher, Nighthawks, Sin City, Ladyhawke, The Blood of Heroes and Batman Begins.

Hauer was born in Breukelen, Netherlands, to drama teachers Arend and Teunke, and grew up in Amsterdam. Since his parents were very occupied with their careers, he and his three sisters (one older, two younger) were raised mostly by nannies. At the age of 15, Hauer ran off to sea and spent a year scrubbing decks aboard a freighter. Returning home, he worked as an electrician and a carpenter for three years while attending acting classes at night school. He went on to join an experimental troupe, with which he remained for five years before he was cast in the lead role in the very successful 1969 television series Floris, a Dutch Ivanhoe-like medieval action drama. The role made him famous in his native country.

Hauer's career changed course when director Paul Verhoeven cast him as the lead in Turkish Delight (1973) (based on the Jan Wolkers book of the same name). The movie found box-office favour abroad as well as at home, and within two years, its star was invited to make his English-language debut in the British film The Wilby Conspiracy (1975). Set in South Africa and starring Michael Caine and Sidney Poitier, the film was an action melodrama with a focus on apartheid. Hauer's supporting role, however, was barely noticed in Hollywood, and he returned to Dutch films for several years. Hauer made his American debut in the Sylvester Stallone vehicle Nighthawks (1981), cast as a psychopathic and cold-blooded terrorist named "Wolfgar" (after a character in the Old English poem Beowulf). The following year, he appeared in arguably his most famous and acclaimed role as the eccentric, violent, yet sympathetic replicant Roy Batty in Ridley Scott's 1982 sci-fi thriller, Blade Runner.

Hauer was a dedicated environmentalist. He fought for the release of Greenpeace's co-founder, Paul Watson, who was convicted in 1994 for sinking a Norwegian whaling vessel. Hauer has also established an AIDS awareness foundation called the Rutger Hauer Starfish Foundation. He married his second wife, Ineke, in 1985 (they had been together since 1968); and he has one child, actress Aysha Hauer, who was born in 1966 and who made him a grandfather in 1988. In April 2007, he published his autobiography All Those Moments: Stories of Heroes, Villains, Replicants, and Blade Runners (co-written with Patrick Quinlan) where he discussed many of his movie roles. Proceeds of the book go to Hauer's Starfish Foundation.

Su hermana mayor y sus dos hermanas menores también eran actrices. Abandonó los estudios en el instituto para intentar dedicarse, como su abuelo, a la marina, pero terminó desechando la idea a causa de su daltonismo (como su bisabuelo) para trabajar durante un período como obrero de la construcción y ejercer de poeta bohemio en sus ratos libres, por los cafés de Ámsterdam.

biography:
Rutger Hauer war ein niederländischer Schauspieler.

Hauer machte eine Ausbildung zum Elektriker und Zimmermann. In einer Abendschule nahm er parallel Schauspielunterricht. Er bekam die Hauptrolle in der Fernsehserie „Floris“ von Paul Verhoeven. Die beiden schlossen eine langjährige Freundschaft und arbeiteten in vielen Filmen zusammen. So war auch der internationale Durchbruch von Rutger Hauer in Paul Verhoevens Film „Türkische Früchte“, welcher 1974 für den Oscar in der Kategorie „Bester ausländischer Film“ nominiert war. Richtigen Aufwind bekam die Karriere von Rutger Hauer 1982 durch die Darstellung des Replikanten Roy Batty in „Der Blade Runner“ von Ridley Scott.

Nachdem er in einigen Flops mitspielte, wurde es ruhiger um Rutger Hauer und er war öfter in B-Movies zu sehen. Seine Rollen waren in den 1990ern zusehends auf Fernsehproduktionen beschränkt, bis er 2005 gleich mit zwei Comic-Verfilmungen sein Kino-Comeback gab: „Sin City“ von Robert Rodriguez und „Batman Begins“ von Christopher Nolan gaben der Karriere von Rutger Hauer einen erneuten Schub.

Рутгер Хауэр

biography: Рутгер Хауэр - нидерландский и американский актёр, кинорежиссёр, сценарист и продюсер. Его первое появление перед телекамерой состоялось ещё 12 декабря 1956 года, когда проводились съёмки спектакля «Асмодей». Затем была эпизодическая роль в картине «Господин Хаварден» (1968), но в смонтированную версию кадры с участием Хауэра не вошли. Первая популярность пришла к молодому актёру уже через год, после участия в телесериале «Флорис» (1969). Его первое появление в Голливуде состоялось в картине «Ночные ястребы» (1981) с Сильвестром Сталлоне в главной роли, в котором он сыграл убийцу Вульфгара. Рутгер увидел для себя новые возможности самовыражения. Он нанимает известного репетитора, у которого берёт уроки американского варианта английского языка, чтобы американские зрители в будущем не слышали его европейский акцент. После нескольких удачных картин Хауэр становится известным в США актёром, чьё имя начали ставить первым на киноафишах и плакатах. Фильм «Бегущий по лезвию» стал классикой научной фантастики, и первая версия была добавлена к Национальному архиву фильмов, поддерживаемым библиотекой Конгресса США. К этому времени он покупает на Калифорнийском побережье дом и собственноручно строит огромный трейлер, который часто использует во время съёмок на выезде. В конце 1980-х годов Рутгер Хауэр классифицировался среди пятидесяти наиболее «пригодных к учёту» актёров в мире в списке, сделанном элитным изданием «Hollywood Reporter». Однако серьёзных кинематографических достижений в эти годы актёр так и не добился, вероятно потому, что к этому Хауэр особо никогда и не стремился, воспринимая кинематограф как работу. Вторая половина 1990-х годов и начало нового тысячелетия для актёра, заключившего контракт со своим новым агентом Джоан Хайлер, начались довольно удачно. В этот период он снимается в фильмах киностудии «Hallmark» - «Зов предков» (1996) по роману Джека Лондона и «Мерлин» (1998) - на телеканале «NBC» в фэнтезийной сказке «Десятое королевство» (1999), где сыграл роль злого Охотника. Кинокартина «Симон-волхв» (1998), где Хауэр сыграл мягкого и доброго чтеца поэзии Альбрехта (Count Albrecht), была представлена на нескольких международных кинофестивалях. По его собственному признанию, Рутгер никогда не хотел быть актёром, потому что он застенчив по природе, однако, ему очень нравится снимать независимое кино на своей студии. Кстати, он является членом попечительского совета Высшей школы режиссёров и сценаристов в Санкт-Петербурге. Город на Неве он впервые посетил, участвуя в съемках приключенческого фильма «Ключ Саламандры», где сыграл главную роль, а 23 марта 2011 года приехал в Москву на его премьеру.

biography: Rutger Hauer 1944. január 23-án született Breukelenben, Hollandiában. Színésztanárok fiaként jött a világra, Amszterdamban nőtt fel. 15 évesen elszökött otthonról, hogy egy hajón dolgozzon, ahol egy évet töltött el, majd visszatérvén villanyszerelő volt és esti iskolába járt. Egy kísérleti társulat tagja lett öt évig. Paul Verhoeven rendező választotta be 1969-ben a Floris című holland középkori történelmi sorozatba, szülőhazájában ezzel a szereppel tett szert hírnévre. Verhoevennel tovább folytatódott munkakapcsolatuk: a Török gyümölcs (1973) című filmje már nemzetközi visszhangot is keltett, minden idők egyik legismertebb holland filmje lett, melyet Oscarra is jelöltek. Első angol nyelvű filmje a A Wilby összeesküvés (1975) volt, melyben egy mellékszerepet játszott. Ezt követően visszatért a holland filmiparba, és Verhoeven két filmjében is láthattuk. (Futás az életért, 1977, Spetters, 1980). Amerikában rögtön ezt követően debütált a Fantom az éjszakában (1981) című akciófilmben Sylvester Stallone-vel. Karrierje egyik csúcsát a kultikus Szárnyas fejvadász (1982) jellegzetes antihős figurája, Roy Batty karaktere jelentette, a filmet pedig máig a rendező, Ridley Scott egyik legjobbjaként tartja számon a szakma. Ezt követően John Hurt (Az Osterman-hétvége, 1983) és Michelle Pfeiffer (Sólyomasszony, 1985) oldalán is szerepet kapott. Ismertsége csúcsán neki szánták a Robotzsaru (1987) főszerepét, ám azt végül Peter Weller kapta meg. A ’90-es években főleg a tévében lehetett látni, egyik sorozatban játszott szerepéért (Szökés Sobiborból) Golden Globe-ot is nyert a legjobb mellékszereplő kategóriájában. Később gonosztevőket tűnt fel a Sin City - A bűn városaben, de hasonló szerepben láthattuk a Batman: Kezdődik!ben is 2005-ben. Újabban Van Helsinget alakította a Drakula 3D-ben (2012), és a szintén vámpíros sorozatban, a Vámpírnemzetben Niall Brigant szerepét játszotta. Hauer 1985-ben nősült meg második alkalommal, egy gyereke született, a szintén színésznő Aysha Hauer.

Rutger Hauer

biography:
Rutger Oelsen Hauer (23 januari 1944 - 19 juli 2019) was een Nederlandse filmacteur. Hij was bekend van zijn rollen in Flesh + Blood, Blind Fury, Blade Runner, The Hitcher, Nighthawks, Sin City, Ladyhawke, The Blood of Heroes en Batman Begins.

Hauer werd geboren in Breukelen, Nederland, als zoon van dramadocenten Arend en Teunke, en groeide op in Amsterdam. Omdat zijn ouders het erg druk hadden met hun carrière, werden hij en zijn drie zussen (één oudere en twee jongere) voornamelijk opgevoed door kindermeisjes. Op 15-jarige leeftijd vertrok Hauer naar zee en bracht een jaar door met het schrobben van de dekken van een vrachtschip. Na zijn terugkeer naar huis werkte hij drie jaar als elektricien en timmerman, terwijl hij acteerlessen volgde aan de avondschool. Hij sloot zich vervolgens aan bij een experimenteel gezelschap, waar hij vijf jaar bleef voordat hij de hoofdrol kreeg in de zeer succesvolle televisieserie Floris uit 1969, een middeleeuwse actiefilm in de stijl van Ivanhoe. Deze rol maakte hem beroemd in zijn geboorteland.

Hauers carrière veranderde van koers toen regisseur Paul Verhoeven hem de hoofdrol gaf in Turks Fruit (1973) (gebaseerd op het gelijknamige boek van Jan Wolkers). De film viel zowel in het buitenland als in eigen land in de smaak bij de bioscopen, en binnen twee jaar werd de ster uitgenodigd voor zijn Engelstalige debuut in de Britse film The Wilby Conspiracy (1975). Deze film, die zich afspeelt in Zuid-Afrika en met Michael Caine en Sidney Poitier in de hoofdrollen, was een actiemelodrama met een focus op apartheid. Hauers bijrol kreeg echter nauwelijks aandacht in Hollywood en hij keerde enkele jaren terug naar Nederlandse films. Hauer maakte zijn Amerikaanse debuut in de Sylvester Stallone-film Nighthawks (1981), waarin hij de psychopathische en koelbloedige terrorist "Wolfgar" speelde (naar een personage uit het Oudengelse gedicht Beowulf). Het jaar daarop verscheen hij in misschien wel zijn beroemdste en meest geprezen rol als de excentrieke, gewelddadige, maar sympathieke replicant Roy Batty in Ridley Scotts sciencefictionthriller Blade Runner uit 1982.

Hauer was een toegewijd milieuactivist. Hij vocht voor de vrijlating van Greenpeace's medeoprichter Paul Watson, die in 1994 werd veroordeeld voor het tot zinken brengen van een Noors walvisschip. Hauer heeft ook een stichting opgericht die aids-bewustzijn stimuleert: de Rutger Hauer Starfish Foundation. Hij trouwde in 1985 met zijn tweede vrouw, Ineke (ze waren sinds 1968 samen); en hij heeft één kind, actrice Aysha Hauer, geboren in 1966 en die hem in 1988 grootvader maakte. In april 2007 publiceerde hij zijn autobiografie All Those Moments: Stories of Heroes, Villains, Replicants, and Blade Runners (geschreven in samenwerking met Patrick Quinlan), waarin hij veel van zijn filmrollen besprak. De opbrengst van het boek gaat naar Hauers Starfish Foundation.

鲁格·奥尔森·豪尔（1944年1月23日-2019年7月19日）是荷兰电影演员。他因在《血肉之躯》、《盲目狂怒》、《银翼杀手》、《杀手》、《夜鹰》、《罪恶之城》、《瓢虫》、《英雄之血》和《蝙蝠侠开始》中的角色而闻名。

豪尔出生于荷兰的布吕克伦，父亲是戏剧老师阿伦德和特恩克，在阿姆斯特丹长大。由于他的父母忙于事业，他和他的三个姐姐（一个大，两个小）主要由保姆抚养长大。15岁那年，豪尔跑到海上，花了一年时间在一艘货轮上擦洗甲板。回国后，他当了三年电工和木匠，同时在夜校上表演课。他继续加入一个实验剧团，在那里他呆了五年，然后他在 1969 年非常成功的电视连续剧《弗洛里斯》中担任主角，这是一部类似荷兰艾芬豪的中世纪动作剧。这个角色使他在他的祖国声名鹊起。

当导演保罗·韦霍文（Paul Verhoeven）在《土耳其软糖》（1973）中担任主角时，豪尔的职业生涯发生了变化（根据扬·沃尔克斯的同名书籍改编）。这部电影在国内外都获得了票房青睐，两年内，其明星受邀在英国电影《威尔比阴谋》（1975）中首次亮相英语。这部电影以南非为背景，由迈克尔·凯恩和西德尼·波蒂埃主演，是一部以种族隔离为主题的动作情节剧。然而，豪尔的配角在好莱坞几乎没有引起人们的注意，他回到了荷兰电影界好几年。豪尔在西尔维斯特·史泰龙的《夜鹰》（1981）中首次亮相美国，饰演一个名叫“沃尔夫加”的精神病和冷血恐怖分子（以古英语诗歌《贝奥武夫》中的一个角色命名）。次年，他在雷德利·斯科特 1982 年的科幻惊悚片《银翼杀手》中出演了可以说是他最著名和最受好评的角色，饰演古怪、暴力但富有同情心的复制人罗伊·巴蒂。

豪尔是一位敬业的环保主义者。他为释放绿色和平组织的联合创始人保罗·沃森（Paul Watson）而战，后者于1994年因击沉挪威捕鲸船而被定罪。豪尔还成立了一个名为罗格豪尔海星基金会的艾滋病意识基金会。他于 1985 年与第二任妻子 Ineke 结婚（他们自 1968 年以来一直在一起）;他有一个孩子，女演员艾莎·豪尔（Aysha Hauer），她出生于1966年，并于1988年成为祖父。2007 年 4 月，他出版了自传《所有这些时刻：英雄、恶棍、复制人和银翼杀手的故事》（与帕特里克·昆兰合著），讨论了他的许多电影角色。这本书的收益捐给了豪尔的海星基金会。

Drama öğretmeni olan ebeveynlerin oğlu olarak sanatla iç içe bir ortamda büyüyen Hauer, gençlik yıllarında asi bir ruha sahipti ve 15 yaşında evden kaçarak bir yük gemisinde çalışmaya başladı. Dünyayı gezdiği bu süreçte kültürleri tanısa da, renk körü olması nedeniyle kaptanlık hayalinden vazgeçmek zorunda kaldı. Hollanda'ya döndükten sonra inşaat işçiliği ve orduda sıhhiyecilik gibi çeşitli işlerde çalıştı, ancak sonunda ailesinin izinden giderek oyunculuk eğitimine yöneldi.

Hauer'in kariyerindeki ilk büyük dönüm noktası, yönetmen Paul Verhoeven ile kurduğu uzun soluklu işbirliği oldu. 1969 yılında Hollanda televizyon dizisi "Floris"te başrolü üstlenerek ülkesinde bir yıldız haline geldi. Verhoeven ile sinemadaki ortaklığı, Yabancı Dilde En İyi Film dalında Oscar adayı olan erotik drama "Türk Lokumu" (Turks Fruit) (1973) ve II. Dünya Savaşı draması "Soldaat van Oranje" (Soldier of Orange) (1977) ile devam etti. Bu filmlerdeki başarısı, ona uluslararası kapıları açtı ve Hollywood yapımcılarının dikkatini çekmesini sağladı.

Amerikan sinemasındaki ilk çıkışını Sylvester Stallone'un karşısında soğukkanlı bir teröristi canlandırdığı "Gece Şahinleri" (Nighthawks) (1981) filmiyle yaptı. Ancak Rutger Hauer'i sinema tarihine kazıyan ve bir bilimkurgu ikonu haline getiren rol, Ridley Scott'ın yönettiği kült klasik "Bıçak Sırtı" (Blade Runner) (1982) filmindeki replikant lideri Roy Batty oldu. Özellikle filmin finalindeki ünlü "yağmurdaki gözyaşları" (tears in rain) monoloğunun bir kısmını kendisinin doğaçlama eklemesi, performansını unutulmaz kıldı.

1980'ler boyunca karizmatik kötü adam rollerinin yanı sıra kahraman rollerinde de boy gösterdi. Sam Peckinpah'ın son filmi "The Osterman Weekend" (1983), Michelle Pfeiffer ile başrolü paylaştığı fantastik macera "Ladyhawke" (1985) ve psikopat bir otostopçuyu canlandırdığı gerilim klasiği "Otostopçu" (The Hitcher) (1986) bu dönemin öne çıkan yapımlarıdır. Televizyon filmi "Sobibor'dan Kaçış" (Escape from Sobibor) (1987) filmindeki Alexander Pechersky rolüyle En İyi Yardımcı Erkek Oyuncu dalında Altın Küre Ödülü kazandı. Kör bir kılıç ustasını oynadığı "Kör Öfke" (Blind Fury) (1989) ise aksiyon severler arasında kült bir yer edindi.

1990'larda "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" (1992) filmi ve çeşitli B-film aksiyonlarında yer aldıktan sonra, 2000'lerde prestijli projelerle kariyerinde yeni bir ivme yakaladı. George Clooney'nin yönettiği "Tehlikeli Aklın İtirafları" (Confessions of a Dangerous Mind) (2002), Robert Rodriguez'in "Günah Şehri" (Sin City) (2005) ve Christopher Nolan'ın "Batman Başlıyor" (Batman Begins) (2005) filmlerinde önemli yan roller üstlendi. 2011 yapımı "Hobo with a Shotgun" filmindeki performansı ile grindhouse türüne saygı duruşunda bulundu. Son yıllarında Luc Besson'un "Valerian ve Bin Gezegen İmparatorluğu" (Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets) (2017) ve Jacques Audiard'ın "The Sisters Brothers" (2018) gibi filmlerinde yer aldı. Hollandalı aktör, 19 Temmuz 2019 tarihinde kısa bir hastalıktan sonra 75 yaşında Hollanda'daki evinde hayatını kaybetmiştir.

title: On the Edge of 'Blade Runner'

overview: This is the rare UK Channel 4 documentary about Blade Runner, giving insights into it's history with interviews of Ridley Scott, the writers and nearly all the cast.  Interviews with production staff, including Ridley, give details into the creative process and turmoil during preproduction. Stories from Paul M. Sammon and Fancher provide insight into Philip K. Dick and the origins of Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?  Interweaved are cast interviews with the notable exceptions of Harrison Ford and Sean Young. Through these interviews we get a sense of how difficult and frustrating the film was to make as a result of an exacting director without allies and hot, wet, smoggy conditions; which added to the high pressure atmosphere everyone increasingly felt as the film went over budget.  There is also a tour of some locations, most notably the Bradbury Building and the Warner Brothers backlot that was the LA 2019 streets, which look very different from Ridley's dark version.
