Everything Wrong with The Silence of the Lambs With A Side of Fava Beans

[@mosspally6995]

The running at the start shows her dedication and isolation. She’s giving it all for the bureau, alone.

[@FranSanTeeth90]

The running at the start is an allusion to Atalanta. The nymph that the boys couldnt beat in a foot race to win her hand. That and as women a good portion of our lives is being pursued. Sometimes in courtship, sometimes in competition, and sometimes with our very lives and bodily integrity at stake. We're all just running from boys.

[@clairepettie]

It's also a visual reminder that she's focused and tenacious, like a dog with a bone. She keeps going even when her colleagues believe the job is done. Like Jeanette's comment above, I'd also wondered if it was partly to point out how vulnerable women can be, no matter how intelligent or capable. Seeing her from behind like that, you feel like she's being watched or followed, hunted even.

For people who said there's no lambs in the movie. It refers to the conversation she has with lecter where she said she grew up near slaughterhouse and she felt bad for the lambs that were crying out and then silence when they were killed. She said she always wanted to do something to save them. Now she is. The lambs in the title are the innocent victims that are silenced when murdered. So yes there are lambs in the movie.

[@cookwithcel1455]

Nice i like this

[@nthgth]

Ehh, that's a real stretch. A _real_ stretch. If that's true, they were clearly desperately reaching for some, _any,_ symbolism they could find.

[@andreaiacco18]

Yes the lambs come from there but I think here Clarice is actually trying to find a redemption of some sort. She "wakes up in the dark to the screaming of the lambs" and feels guilty because she couldn't save them, she's compelled to save people so that she can "make up" that time when she couldn't save the innocents. When working on a case she hears the lambs (the innocent victims) screaming and when she manages to save them they stop (so now they're silent) because they're no more in danger, and will finally let her sleep peacefully.

[@Mad_Oph]

Part of Lecter's character is that he is, in his own perverse fashion, a true gentleman. He's a murderer and a cannibal, yes, but he also has a fixation on things like respect, decorum, and politeness. That's part of what makes his character interesting, is that disconnect between utterly horrific crimes while also being a man of culture and civility. He's certainly capable of terrible things, but there are other actions and behaviors that he finds unconscionable and unforgivable, as in the case of Multiple Miggs. He knows what he's doing and he has never intended on doing it any other way.

[@lazer2365]

This is why, although it seems many believe it is Mandela Effect, he wouldn't say 'Hello Clarice' on his first meeting with Starling. This would be over-familiar and rude, which is not his character.

You should watch Hannibal. Don't bother with Red Dragon. Hannibal expands upon the Lecter character and his work with the FBI before they figured out he was killing people. It is intense and at turns a bit psychotic, living up to the title character.

[@Julia-lk8jn]

Only trouble with that: Him making fun of Clarice starling's accent. It's such a school-yard bully thing to do, it always irritates me when I see the movie. Yep, he was feeling insulted that a (to his rather vain feelings) total nobody is being sent to interview him ... or I guess he might hve been afraid that he's losing his version of star power, and will end up forgotten in Dr. Chilton's basement. Either way: it jarrs with Lecter's claim to being gentleman.

Your sin about just using a common hose to threaten her can be explained by Buffalo Bill not wanting to damage her skin before it's ready to be removed. At least that was always my assumption. Plus the rhyme he says helps him get across that he's crazy so be mindful while also seeing her as an object.

[@vaevictusdeus]

Fun fact: most older handcuffs, especially those used from the early 80's through the mid 90's were REMARKABLY easy to pick with anything from a pen clip to a paper clip with almost no noticeable effort involved. You just slide it in the gap where the teeth meet the cuff, apply less pressure than it takes to click a pen, and they immediately slide apart. Sounds too easy to be true, but it absolutely was. Even from a sitting position with your hands behind your back, if you knew how to pick them, you could easily be out in seconds using only the movement of your thumb and forefinger : )

[@handsomest1]

vaevictusdeus tell that to Houdini! Sigh {gta music please} 😎

[@Rockhound6165]

But the way Lecter was cuffed, if the cuffs were double locked he would have never been able to pick them. Not to mention what they used were actually leg irons and not handcuffs. Chain is far too long for handcuffs. Also, and this comes from 16 years experience in corrections, there is no way that the officers would need to open the cell to give Lecter his meal let alone serve him something that he would need a knife to eat with.

15:02 in addition to recognizing the fabric pinned to the dress, and its resemblance to the skin cut from the victim, lecter also mentions "simplicity" when telling starling how to catch buffalo bill; simplicity is a pattern company.

[@joeymama4666]

Simplicity patterns? That's a stretch. Lecter of course has no way of knowing that Clarice can find a dressmaking dummy in Frederica Bimmel's house. He's quoting Marcus Aurelius. “First principles, Clarice. Simplicity. Read Marcus Aurelius. Of each particular thing, ask what is it in itself? What is its nature? What does he do, this man you seek?” Or, in the book: “The Emperor counsels simplicity: First principles Of each particular thing, ask: What is it in itself, in its own constitution?

Could have been a double boost to his ego.

[@Sir_Maximus]

The movie didn’t tell Clarice that Hannibal had something in common with Buffalo Bill because, as later explained in the movie, if she had an agenda going in Hannibal would see right through it, Roy with her and then go cold, which makes sense because when she goes to interview him with the questionare he calls her out for so obviously transitioning to asking him to fill it out. He saw right through her and if she had a different goal he would have seen that too, therefore ruining her chance of getting anywhere.

[@petejt]

Correct.

[@reevesavage]

the iconic line "I ate his liver with some fava beans and a nice chianti." is the most important part of what he was saying to her. Hannibal is usually on a strict regiment of MAOIs to keep him level...but that the specific list of food and drink would inhibit their function...he's telling Clarice he's off his meds and she should tread lightly with boring him.

[@kcmichelson4528]

It's never implied whether it's true of not. He's testing her knowledge and in this scene giving here all the info she needs to solve the crime. "Belvadear". In his painting. Belvadear Ohio. If she picks up on it. Etc. Its a clever game he's playing to size her up. We dont know if the census taker story is true or not. Imo.

[@joeymama4666]

I don't buy this. There is no evidence or suggestion that Lecter is on MAOIs. Plus, he ate the census taker's liver years earlier, long before he was caught and locked up. Lecter never had a therapist or anything, and he was always able to function easily in society. He would have had to prescribe those MAOIs for himself. And why would he do that? He's smart enough to know those medications would not do anything worthwhile for him, or for his sociopathy, mostly because he doesn't view himself as a sociopath in the first place. And MAOI's are not normally prescribed for homicidal maniacs anyway. Sometimes Lecter is described as a psychopath and sometimes a sociopath. But Starling makes the point that there is not actually a term for what is wrong with Lecter. Anyway, the mention of his consuming the census taker's liver, years earlier, couldn't logically indicate anything about being off his meds while he's talking to Starling years afterward. Doesn't make sense. One odd factoid about his famous line in the movie: In the original novel, Lecter says he ate the guy's liver with fava beans and a "big Amarone". The movie changed a big Amarone to "a nice Chianti". I don't know why.

​@@danielwagman9794 Thank you for your incredible kind words. What I meant is that everyone has their limitation even with hardest work and best luck. If I completely outdid myself, I would say I can write a story that's on the level of Rain Man, or The King's Speech, but not this movie, it's just so monumental and profound and unique that it's impossible to recreate, even for the best of writers out there.

It seems to be Italian words that suffer most. Lasagne and Milan also get mispronounced by Americans.

3:22 Lecter knows why he's called Buffalo Bill, he's asking Clarice to see her reaction. 4:55 In the book not only is Lecter in a different spot in relation to Miggs, but he can also smell the semen (he smells other things on her as well, her perfume, her wound after she comes back from the storage garage, etc...) . 6:03 In the book Lecter gives Clarice more information about a valentine gift for her so it's a little easier to understand her logic in finding the storage garage. 8:45 Read the book and you'll get much more of her female perspective 11:13 Bill uses a hose because he doesn't want to damage her, after all, he wants to wear her skin, so he can't use a lot of torture other than cold water. 17:10 It's not out of character, Bill thinks he wants to be a woman and Clarice is very beautiful. In the book he's admiring her as she stumbles through the dark, and he used to hunt women this way - he's also thinking it's a pity she's too small for him to take the skin off of. Read the book bruh, it's better than the movie and gives you answers to many of the sins you gave it.

I actually think "the hose" is a perfectly understandable punishment given his goals. He can't really do anything that could damage her skin, since thats the whole point of him abducting her. So instead he comes up with a punishment that will make her miserable without physically harming her, like a minor water boarding.

[@davidioanhedges]

The obstacle course is supposed to represent how she has to struggle in her field, being a woman, hence the scene. It's a metaphor.

[@colliric]

Yes and it pays off in the film's climax where she will have to employ every technique in the book to apprehend Buffalo Bill on her own. Also the scene establishes she is a rookie which is the reason she is sent to try and crack Hannibal, since he is only willing to talk to a rookie that he feels he can manipulate.

[@Amilakasun1]

Even with lower entrance standards women still struggle.

[@jongon0848]

It's also a visual representation of her struggle to climb to the top. When she pulls herself up with the rope it's similar to a shot we see later on of Catherine stuck in the well, so essentially the film is saying Clarice is the one who's gonna help Catherine escape the well.

[@eora5142]

3:10 I mean, here you're making it more difficult that it is! Probably those stairs are closed by a wall we don't see or some other unavoidable barrier, which explains perfectly both why there aren't any gates and why clarice had to enter from the other side.

@@FranSanTeeth90 Very true. I have been in many re-purposed antique buildings and I have seen architectural oddities like this. However, I agree with Elderly Emo.

I'm not entirely certain of this, but I believe that 'census taker' refers to a psychologist. Psychology is based on tests and responses to guage condition. Lecter appears to be referring to a forensic psychologist who attempted to analyse him.
