Quotes:
|
-
Clarice Starling: This is from the Guinness Book of World Records, congratulating me on being the female FBI Agent who has shot and killed the most people.
-
Hannibal Lecter: Okey-dokey. Here we go.
-
Hannibal Lecter: Is this coincidence, or are you back on the case? If so, goody-goody.
-
Mason Verger: So what do ya think, Cordell? Does Lecter want to fuck her or kill her or eat her alive?
Cordell Doemling: Probably all three, though I wouldn't want to predict in what order.
-
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.

Trivia:
|
- Some of the places where the move was filmed include places where filming hardly ever is allowed. Author Thomas Harris, while doing research for his book, got in contact with the heir of the Palazzo Capponi and for the movie this same heir allowed Ridley Scott to film the Caponni Library.
- One character eats an orange just before going to confront Hannibal. This could be a tribute to The Godfather where everyone who dies is accompanied by an orange in the scene.
- Krendler's lake house with the boat dock is the same house used in the What About Bob?
- During the brain-eating sequence there is a small boar's-head trophy mounted on the wall just above and behind Ray Liota; another reference to the pig massacre scene.
- In the scene in the Italian police station, the soccer match on TV is from England and involves Aston Villa. Their player Julian Joachim is seen in close-up.

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.
