Because of my preference for Jodie Foster, I have watched the film "The Silent Lambs" over and over again, and every time I watch it, I think it is a good film, but every time I watch it, I feel a little bit incomprehensible. It's not clear why the buffalo was going to kill people and skin them, what tricks Hannibal was playing from start to finish, and why the title was called "The Silent Lamb".
This movie can be regarded as the originator of "Criminal Minds". The group that Jodie Foster wants to join after training at the FBI is also a criminal behavior analysis group, so there are strong similarities from the setting of the villain to the development of the plot. "Criminal Minds" is the only American drama that I have caught up to the latest episode. After 9 years and 9 seasons, I look back at this "Silent Lamb". It turns out that there are many things I can't understand. Gradually I can see it.
The first time I watched "The Silent Lamb", the most horrifying scene was that Professor Hannibal hung the killed guard on the cage, cut a knife on his stomach, privately made a large piece of skin, and matched it with the lights and music of the time. , Creating an extremely terrifying atmosphere. What he did was not a psychopath, or it was not just a psychopath, but because the detectives who rushed in were all shocked by this terrible picture after a lot of effort, and because of the cruel methods, They aroused their determination to save the "surviving" agents at all costs, so Hannibal was able to get through and escape.
Anthony Hopkins, who played Hannibal, was so superb. He played Hannibal's clever and perverted role to the fullest and exquisitely and successfully won the title of actor in 16 minutes. In turn, I will look at my beloved Jodie Foster. In fact, many places are slightly exaggerated, not as slack as Meryl Streep, and naturally not as Anthony Hopkins. But fortunately, her role in the play is a newly graduated agent, and the relationship with Haniba is also a student and teacher, so even if the emotional control is not so accurate, but the role itself is still young. Great. In addition, Jodie Foster was born with a resolute and indifferent face, green eyes, narrow and high nose, and clear skeletal face, which fully conforms to the heroine's personality and role settings, which makes people once again admire the casting vision.
As a perfect movie from all to the end, it starts with the dim forest in the first shot and the first movie melody, until the last shot Hannibal follows the doctor who abused him. It’s all perfect. Hollywood can shoot. Such a highly entertaining and high-quality movie cannot be underestimated, and it cannot be moved out of the three major film festivals to obliterate its contribution to the development of the film.
