"P.S....


Clearly this new assignment is not your choice.

Rather, I suppose, it is part of 'the bargain'.

But you accepted it, Clarice.

Your job is to craft my doom.

So I'm not sure how well I should wish you.

But I'm sure we'll have a lot of fun.

Ta - Ta,

H."

That paper he writes on is great. Love the frayed edge of the envelope. Can you buy this stuff?

The letter-writing scene is one of my favorites, and I too love the frayed edge of the envelope. Were my handwriting more attractive I’d definitely write more letters. it’s a dying art, really.

I agree.






And I guess Ridley Scott really liked the scene as well - they repeat the "Ta - Ta, H." line over the soundtrack right when the credits end.

I've been reading the book for the first time over the past few weeks - and I thought fans of the film (and this scene in particular) might be interested to know: this part of Hannibal's letter to Clarice is unique to the film.

Yup. Not sure, but it looks like Strathmore paper(I managed a copy shop for years).
