A small detail

Noticed a small detail. Before Hannibal started to kill, the prison guards helped him organize the table full of his paintings, and a magazine appeared in the close-up shot that read Bon appétit! In French, I wish you a good appetite. It is a pun. On the surface, you want to eat steak. In fact, the real food is a series of victims starting with two prison guards. The French subtly expresses his elegance, and his face is still full of blood like a commander. As chic and free as home. Just one shot shows the director's ingenuity and skill!

-
Jack Crawford: Starling, when I told that sheriff we shouldn't talk in front of a woman, that really burned you, didn't it? It was just smoke, Starling. I had to get rid of him.
Clarice Starling: It matters, Mr Crawford. Cops look at you to see how to act. It matters.
Jack Crawford: Point taken.

[laughs insanely]
Friendly Psychopath: Miggs, you stupid fuck!
