Jodie Foster and Anthony Hopkins will likely be forever associated with their roles in this bone-chilling masterpiece, based on the novel by Thomas Harris and directed by Jonathan Demme. FBI trainee Clarice Starling (Foster) is sent by her supervisor (Scott Glenn) to interview ferociously intelligent serial killer Hannibal "The Cannibal" Lechter (Hopkins) at his cell in a Maryland mental hospital. The FBI hopes Lechter can provide insight into the mind of killer-at-large, Buffalo Bill (Ted Levine), whose current abductee happens to be the daughter of a senator. Intrigued by Clairice, Lechter demands information about her personal life and in exchange for clues, and the two begin to form a strangely intimate connection, with a girl's life hanging in the balance. Starling is gradually revealed as a woman struggling out of her own darkness, bound to aid the dysfunctional males around her on their own paths of transformation, liberation, and destruction. This is a film of brilliant and disturbing beauty that...

A Slow Dance With the Devil

Date of Review:  Jul 24, 2000
Review: Clarice: If you didn't kill him, then who did, sir?

Lecter: Who can say. Best thing for him, really. His therapy was going nowhere.

With exchanges like this, it's no wonder that Silence of the Lambs won the Best Screenplay Oscar...

Professional Reviews

  (02/13/1991, p.F1, Sheila Benson): "...Hopkins' performance may be the film's bravura showpiece, but Foster's goes the whole distance, steadfast, controlled, heartbreakingly insightful, a fine addition to her gallery of characterizations..."

Quotes from the Movie

  "Believe me, you don't want Hannibal Lecter inside your head."--Jack Crawford (Scott Glenn)

"A census taker once tried to test me. I ate his liver with some fava beans and a nice chianti."--Hannibal Lecter (Anthony Hopkins); the classic sucking sound Hopkins made after this line was ad-libbed

"I do wish we could chat a little longer, but I'm having an old friend for dinner."--Hannibal Lecter
