Also a
badass character played by
Edward James Olmos in the flick
Blade Runner. Which also happens to be a
badass movie directed by
Ridley Scott. The same - you guessed it -
badass who directed
Alien. And, more recently,
Gladiator.
Gaff is a
Blade Runner, one of a group of
titular policeman responsible for "
retiring" (read:
killing) androids known as
replicants. Gaff's
trademark is leaving behind an
origami figure wherever he's investigated - a bit he shares with the
assasin in
John Woo's equally excellent flick
Hard Boiled.
Gaff's
enigmatic words near the end of the movie, combined with his
passion for
folded paper, are largely responsible for the
subtle twist at the end of the film.
