lethargic_man | Hebrew in Blade Runner

Blade Runner is known for depicting an extremely cosmopolitan future L.A.: it looks, as one of the film's makers put it, like Hong Kong on a very bad day, though there's also other elements in too: Gaff's streetspeak apparently includes Hungarian. However, I'll bet you've never spotted the Hebrew in there too:

(The newspaper the person on the right of Deckard is reading is called Kol Bo, "everything is in it", the name of a late mediaeval law code, and also of a grocery chain in Israel.)

Actually, I cheated; there's a reason you won't have spotted the Hebrew: you never see the sushi bar from this angle in the film; most of the time you see it from the opposite side. I grabbed this shot from the making-of feature on the Blade Runner: The Final Cut DVD. Though that doesn't make it not worth pointing out. :o)
