Jonathan Demme - USA | 1991 | 118mins
One of only three films to win all 5 major Academy Awards (Film, Director, Actress, Actor, and Screenplay Adaptation); exciting, suspenseful and supremely scary, Jonathan Demme’s adaptation is a terrifying masterpiece of modern-day horror. Anthony Hopkins, in one of his most celebrated of roles, plays Hannibal ‘The Cannibal’ Lecter who is virtually entombed in a subterranean prison for the criminally insane. He is the only link for novice FBI agent Clarice Starling (played by Jodie Foster in a star-making turn), who is beginning her career in a manhunt for a serial killer known as ‘Buffalo Bill’. Lector’s physiological mind games with the rookie agent, create some of the most memorable moments in cinema history and changed a generation’s idea of “Fava beans and a nice chianti”.
