A letter from PKD after first seeing a TV preview of Ridley Scott's "Blade Runner"

"Nothing that we have done, individually or collectively, matches BLADE RUNNER. This is not escapism; it is super realism, so gritty and detailed and authentic and goddam convincing that, well, after the segment I found my normal present-day "reality" pallid by comparison."—Philip K. Dick writing to Jeff Walker at the Ladd Company, after watching a TV preview of Ridley Scott's Blade Runner, the film version of his novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep. (Dangerous Minds)
