Screen Tests: Rachel and Pris (2007)
*** (out of 4)
Casting director Mike Fenton introduces this 8-minute piece that can be found on the BLADE RUNNER special edition. He talks about how actresses Nina Axelrod and Stacey Nelkin both did a screen test for the roles of Rachel and Pris, which of course ended up going to Darryl Hannah and Sean Young. We get brief interviews with both Axelrod and Nelkin before then getting to see the screen tests. This is will be of main interests to die-hard fans of the film. It's pretty cool getting to see these screen tests as this here is something that isn't often put on DVD and Blu-ray releases of films. It's interesting to see the tests and then think of what the entire movie would have been like had these two been cast instead.
