Quotes:
|
-
Hannibal Lecter: Is this coincidence, or are you back on the case? If so, goody-goody.
-
Paul Krendler: Jesus, Starling, what are you doing sitting in the dark?
Clarice Starling: Thinkin' about cannibalism.
-
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.
-
Hannibal Lecter: Okey-dokey. Here we go.
-
Hannibal Lecter: See ya 'round.

Trivia:
|
- After Thomas Harris finished writing the novel, he sent copies to The Silence of the Lambs principals Jonathan Demme, Jodie Foster, Ted Tally, and Anthony Hopkins for approval. The screenplay was rewritten no less than 15 times because of dissatisfaction by Demme and Foster over new character elements. In the end, neither Demme nor Foster remained with the production.
- Keep watching after the credits.
- Krendler's lake house with the boat dock is the same house used in the What About Bob?
- A robot modeled after Ray Liotta was used for some of the shots in the scene in which his cranium is removed.
- This film was publicized as having the highest body count in a movie.

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.
