Hi Minty 😁 here’s a creepy fact from a lifelong Pittsburgh native. The gruesome cage scene was filmed in the Soldier & Sailors Memorial building in Pittsburgh. We belonged to a church, which rented this building (every Sunday for years) as a place for worship. For weeks, we did not hold service due to filming. The room of the cage scene was filmed in the room where us kids would gather to sing songs, before going to age divided rooms. It was creepy as hell going back to church.

@@blakeharris58 In interviews I’ve seen, the people involved in the movie didn’t consider it a horror movie, and certainly it doesn’t adopt the usual approach of most horror movies about serial killers. However, I’d argue that this is partly based on unfairly negative views a lot of people have about the horror genre. It’s in the fact the only horror movie (if you consider it a horror movie) ever to win the Best Picture Oscar, and I’ve noticed that films with horror elements but Oscar aspirations will often deemphasize the horror elements in the marketing (you saw this for example with Black Swan). Speaking personally, when I first saw it in my teens, it was one of the scariest movies I’d ever seen, far beyond most films routinely called horror films.

From all possible actors Minty mentioned I think only Dustin Hoffmann would be able to pull it of and I can imagine him as Lecter. Well, maybe DeNiro in his calm and cold mode but it would be about 70% of Hopkins' or possible Hoffmann's portrayal. As for Al Pacino, he wouldn't fit at all because his screen presence is something like a bomb even when calm while Lecter's presence is more akin to poisonous gas with no smell - you have several minutes (or hours at best) left before you die and you don't even know it.

@DonMachado 3 жыл бұрын

I love everything about this movie, almost. If you have read the book, you'll know that the meaning behind "the silence of the lambs" is never once addressed in the movie. Pretty much everything happened as she described, but she went on to say that all at once the lambs stopped screaming and grew quiet, as if giving up hope and becoming resigned to their fate. It was the silence of the lambs that affected her so profoundly. I wish that had been included because it really defines who Clarice is and gives context to the title that otherwise has none.

@@largol33t1 I’m not too sure about that. It’s not insulting to consider there are multiple shows that were derived off of films: *Star Trek* was derived from *Forbidden Planet,* down to the misunderstood villain, the use of logic to talk the villain into submission and even the “ego, super ego and id” trio (though in *ST* they switched the logical doctor Ostram and emotional second officer Jerry around) *Miami Vice* is essentially *Scarface: the TV show,* only with the focus reversed (while retaining the style and music) So the idea of *The X-Files* taking Clarice and pairing her up with essentially the child of Kolchak (the Night Stalker) or the dad from *Close Encounters* isn’t too far fetched.

He also does a lot of voice over work; that truck themed thriller, the name of which escapes me, for example. He was the voice of Rusty Nail... "Candy Cane... Candy Cane..." Damn... I just can't recall what movie that was.

I was expecting a mention to the skull on the moth, that is from an original photograph by surrealistic spanish painter Salvador Dali, and it's formed by seven naked models. Also that, in that "Manhunter" movie, Hannibal 's surname was changed to Lektor instead of "Silence of the Lambs" Lecter...

Yes - but only if the storyline fitted the real world . Love Julianne Moore for her portrayal of character and being a beauty , but starting off with her being a top renegade cop that doesn't have real fbi checks made Hannibal like a b-rated movie -

Still one of my favorite movies. I love the cinematography. They film a lot of scenes with the character talking directly to the camera. This gives you the sense of unease that they want in the movie. You feel like the timid Clarice as she sits in Jack Crawfords office and he gives her the assignment. You feel uncomfortable as Clarice when Lecter is talking to her from his Memphis jail. They made the bars in the jail wider than normal or order to film that shot head on like that. The movie is supposed to put you in her shoes and also keep you uncomfortable throughout.

In 1991, the best animated feature category hadn’t been created yet, and Silence of the Lambs won Best Picture over Disney’s animated classic Beauty and the Beast. I find it so strange that these two incredibly different films were nominated for the same award. Sometimes I feel like the best animated feature category cheats the nominated and winning films out of the best over all film. There have been years where two or even three of the nominated animated films are better than the nominated and winner films for Best Picture. I do love Silence of the Lambs though. I just find it humorous that those films were pitted against each other. Another great video, Minty!

I do hope you cover Manhunter one day. It's criminally underrated. IMHO, Brian Cox is even better than Hopkins as Hannibal Lecter. Cox is so much more subtle that you wouldn't even suspect him of being a serial killer, which is far more terrifying than the one who seems creepy from first glance.
