Quotes:
|
-
Hannibal Lecter: On a similar note I must confess to you, I'm giving very serious thought... to eating your wife.
-
Clarice Starling: I wasn't speaking to you, Mr. Krendler. When I speak to you, you'll know it because I'll look at you.
-
Paul Krendler: Jesus, Starling, what are you doing sitting in the dark?
Clarice Starling: Thinkin' about cannibalism.
-
Hannibal Lecter: Is this coincidence, or are you back on the case? If so, goody-goody.
-
Barney: Do you ever think he might come after you? You ever think about him at all?
Clarice Starling: Well, at least thirty seconds of everyday. I can't help it. He's always with me, like a bad habit.

Trivia:
|
- David Mamet's adaptation of the novel was changed entirely by Steven Zaillian. But Mamet still retained a co-writer credit, in accordance with WGA regulations.
- The name of Francesca Neri's character, "Allegra Pazzi," is Italian for "Happy Madmen".
- Keep watching after the credits.
- According to the film's cinematographer John Mathieson, three separate endings were filmed. The filmmakers, unsure as to whether the ending of Harris' novel would work for the movie, filmed three versions: one for Harris, one for producer Dino De Laurentiis, and one for Ridley Scott.
- Veteran character actor Frankie Faison has appeared in all four of the "Hannibal" movies. He had a small role in Manhunter and played Barney the asylum orderly in The Silence of the Lambs, Hannibal and Red Dragon.

Credits Fun:
|
- After the credits, we hear Lecter say "Ta ta, H.", the closing line of the post-script in his letter to Clarice.
- As the opening credits end, Hannibal's face can be seen in the formation of pigeons on the ground before they fly away.
