I purchased the directors cut a few years ago... it has some scenes that make it a lot more clear that Deckard is a replicant himself.

Reportedly, this causes some contention between Ford and Scott. Scott says that Deckard was a replicant and Ford says no, he isn't.

I think that ambiguity is one of the reasons for the film's endurance.

Right.. in the directors cut there is a scene where Deckard is staring at the photos in his apartment and it is clear that he does not seem to know them.

“Does he dream of electric sheep?” that is the question to ask.
