I've seen many TV shows and movies from all over the world. "Floris (1969)" was the first show I saw from the Netherlands, and Rutger Hauer was the first Dutch actor. A true star in his own right.
Rust in vrede.

Rutger Hauer totally stole the show from Harrison, he made Blade Runner as it is. He left behind probably the best Sci-Fi scene of all time.

I always like Rutger Hauer - I am sad to hear of his death. It is said he scripted those dying lines in Blade Runner - very memorable and moving.

That is correct he came up with those line he actually came up with a lot of additional dialogue during the filming of BR.

It was a much longer speech as written. Rutger cut it down and added "tears in the rain"
