Quotes:
|
-
Jack Crawford: Believe me, you don't want Hannibal Lecter inside your head.
-
Hannibal Lecter: A census taker once tried to test me. I ate his liver with some fava beans and a nice chianti.
-
Murray: Is it true what they're sayin', he's some kinda vampire?
Clarice Starling: They don't have a name for what he is.
-
Hannibal Lecter: Do you think he visualizes scenarios, exchanges... fucking?
Clarice Starling: That doesn't interest me, Doctor, and frankly, it's... it's the sort of thing that Miggs would say.
Hannibal Lecter: Not anymore.
-
Hannibal Lecter: You know what you look like to me, with your good bag and your cheap shoes? You look like a rube. A well scrubbed, hustling rube with a little taste. Good nutrition has given you some length of bone, but you're not more than one generation from poor white trash, are you, Agent Starling? And that accent you've tried so desparately to shed? Pure West Virginia. What's your father, dear? Is he a coal miner? Does he stink of the lamp? You know how quickly the boys found you... all those tedious sticky fumblings in the back seats of cars...while you could only dream of getting out... getting anywhere... getting all the way to the FBI.
Clarice Starling: You see a lot, Doctor.

Trivia:

- George A. Romero makes a cameo as the bearded man who accompanies Chilton and the two guards who forcibly remove Clarice Starling after her final meeting with Lecter.

- Anthony Hopkins spontaneously invented the slurping sound on the set. Everyone loved it, but Jonathan Demme apparently got really sick of it after a while.
- Both Scott Glenn (Jack Crawford) and Ted Levine (Jame Gumb) have played astronaut Alan Shephard, Glenn in the film _F_The Right Stuff (the_right_stuff) (307759)_F_ and Levine in the miniseries "From the Earth to the Moon".
