Very good soundtrack in this, it sets the mood.

This is Jodie Fosters movie, Anthony Hopkins is just playing a role we've seen before.

reply

I greatly adore Jodie Foster in this but I politely disagree, Hopkins reached legend level with this role. He was a chillingly brilliant psycho.

reply

Exactly right. He had done some great work prior to SOTL - but he wasn't all that big yet.

Jodie on the other hand, she'd already won an Oscar ("The Accused"). And, as I remember, she was nominated for "Taxi Driver" as well.

I don't think Hopkins was ever even nominated prior to SOTL. Off the top of my head, maybe he was for "The Elephant Man" - not 100% sure.

Silence is what brought Hopkins into the upper echelon - the great actor that finally got his career making role.

Oh, it’s a classic freak show and I love it. I’ve read the novel three times, It’s a very scary book and I don’t say that lightly.

reply

Buffulo Bill the guy from Monk is scarier then Anthony.

reply

Buffalo Bill is a psychotic disorganized fool. He’s a freak and a perv. He’s sloppy and demented.

Lecter would make short work
of him.

reply

yeah but we're talking about whos really scary.

reply

The clever man is always the most deadly.

Bill is a shoelace strangulation away from not being a problem anymore.

He is is a good villain though…

reply

I'm going to tap out.

Dang, you started this Lady!

NO retreat, NO surrender!!!

reply

I love the Starling character so much. She’s in the FBI Academy surrounded by big guys that look like they all played college hoops and football and she just digs in and figures it all out. Clarice is awesome.

reply

Tom Petty y’all so you know this movie is really good👍

reply

Easy to forget how great Scott Glenn is in this movie. The guy is a big deal.

reply

Dammit how did I miss this???

(Because I wasn't home but still)

reply

Hey bro, I think I’m the last man standing at this point but I’m going all the way.

I’m at the 45 minute mark.

Oof!
Vick’s Vap-o Rub under the nostrils for the autopsy…this is going to be gross!
