Quotes:
|
-
Hannibal Lecter: Is this coincidence, or are you back on the case? If so, goody-goody.
-
Hannibal Lecter: See ya 'round.
-
Hannibal Lecter: Okey-dokey. Here we go.
-
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.
-
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.

Trivia:
|
- 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.
- Ray Liotta actually ate dark chicken meat during the "brain scene".
- 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.
- The "Top Ten Most Wanted List" from the FBI's website shows Hannibal at number one. All the other people shown were from the real list.
- There is a vegetarian cookbook on top of the fridge in the "dinner scene" toward the end of the movie. It's visible when Hannibal pushes Clarice against the fridge.

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.
