The Blade Runner star recounts his eventful life and acting career, from joining the merchant navy to working with Hollywood's biggest directors. Rutger Hauer has dazzled audiences for years with his creepy, inspiring, and villainous character portrayals. He came to mainstream prominence as a machine more human than his creators in Blade Runner, terrified us as a hitchhiker bent on his own death in The Hitcher, and portrayed a lovestruck king who nightly transformed into a marauding wolf in Ladyhawke. While fans are well acquainted with Hauer's unforgettable on-screen performances, his movie career was nothing compared to his real-life adventures. Born in the Netherlands during WWII, he grew up in a poor family that nourished his creativity. After travelling the world with the Dutch merchant navy, he pursued his love of acting. From working with a traveling theater troupe to his breakout European performance in Turkish Delight and working with legendary directors such as Paul Verhoeven ( RoboCop and Basic Instinct) and Ridley Scott ( Alien and Gladiator), Hauer has collected All Those Moments here.
