==Workprint== [[File:118full-blade-runner-screenshot.jpg|thumb|right|A definition for [[replicant]] seen only in the workprint]] The version dubbed the "workprint version" is the oldest-existing cut of ''Blade Runner''. This is an incomplete version of the film, as it had not yet been color-corrected or sound mixed and it lacked several parts of [[Vangelis]]' score. [[Ridley Scott]] stated that the workprint was "something that was pretty rough, but close enough to what I was after to let a preview audience see." Thus, the cut was shown to industry workers at the GoMillion Sound Studios in late February [[1982 (production)|1982]] and to preview audiences in Denver, Colorado and Dallas, Texas in March 1982.{{ref|fn}} This version was rediscovered in [[1989 (production)|1989]] by [[Michael Arick]], who initially believed it to be the international cut. It was screened [[1990 (production)|the following year]] at the Los Angeles Fairfax Theater as part of a 70mm spring festival. During this screening is when it was discovered to actually be a surviving copy of the workprint. Because the workprint was closer to Ridley Scott's vision for the film than the theatrical cuts, Arick became interested in producing a reconstruction of the film, an effort that ultimately resulted in the 1992 Director's Cut.{{ref|fn}}
