<p> He came to mainstream prominence as a machine more human than his creators in <i>Blade Runner</i>, terrified us as a hitchhiker bent on his own death and the death of anyone who got in his way in <i>The Hitcher</i>, and unforgettably portrayed a lonely king roaming the night as a wolf and pining for the love of a hawk during the day in <i>Ladyhawke</i>. </p> <p> Rutger Hauer has dazzled audiences for years with his creepy, inspiring, and villainous portrayals of everyone from a cold-blooded terrorist in <i>Nighthawks</i> to a blind martial arts master in <i>Blind Fury</i>, but his movie career was nothing compared to his real-life adventures of riding horses, sword fighting, and leaving home at fifteen to scrub decks on a freighter and explore the world. </p> <p> From poverty to working with a traveling theater troupe to his breakout European performance in <i>Turkish Delight</i> and working with legendary directors such as Paul Verhoeven (<i>RoboCop</i> and <i>Basic Instinct</i>) and Ridley Scott (<i>Alien</i> and <i>Gladiator</i>), Hauer has collected <i>All Those Moments</i> here. </p>
