"He has seen things."

One of Ridley Scott's best picks ever for a role. And Hauer's by far most iconic one. Like Catfish said, his performance as the highway killer and the Russian skipper also stayed on my mind for longer time. But unfortunately real high profile main roles did not really come after Blade Runner. I often wondered what had become of Hauer, I saw it as a career in B-movies at best. Scott once said he were a striong charcater - maybe too strong as if he would show the needed adaptation to the needs of mainstream blockbuster formats.
