Quotes:
|
-
Mason Verger: So what do ya think, Cordell? Does Lecter want to f**k her or kill her or eat her alive?
Cordell Doemling: Probably all three, though I wouldn't want to predict in what order.
-
Hannibal Lecter: Is this coincidence, or are you back on the case? If so, goody-goody.
-
Hannibal Lecter: Bowels in or bowels out?
-
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.
-
Hannibal Lecter: Okey-dokey. Here we go.

Trivia:
|
- In the opening credits of the film you can make out the face of Anthony Hopkins' character being formed by pigeons until the end of the credit when you can clearly see his face.
- Dr. Lecter's Florentine alias, Dr. Fell, is taken from a rhyming epigram by 17th century English satirist Thomas Brown: "I do not love thee, Dr. Fell; The reason why I cannot tell. But this alone I know full well: I do not love thee, Dr. Fell."
- Actual North Carolina State Troopers were used for the filming. They can be seen both in the search of the Verger home and driving their cruisers.
- The music during the opening credits is "Aria da Capo" from Bach's Goldberg Variations, a tape of which was playing while Lecter killed the two guards in Tennessee in The Silence of the Lambs.
- 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.
