As Silent as a Lamb.

Rating: Null/10 (28 May 2004)

The Silence of the Lambs has one of the most suspenseful scenes in the history of cinema. The whole conflict between Agent Clarice Starling (Jodie Foster) and Hannibal Lecter (Anthony Hopkins) is one of the best screen duos ever. Plot: After several murders have happened by killer "Buffalo Bill", Agent Clarice Starling is assigned to ask Dr. Hannibal Lecter, a captive cannibal prisoner, the aspects and ways of a killer. She wants Lecter to help her with the case, and he agrees to. The more he helps here with the case, the better Clarice has a chance of tracking the killer down herself. The Silence of the Lambs is a very smart film. Lecter is both a villain and helper and is a very smart person. Lecter doesn't see himself as insane, and doesn't think that what he thinks is wrong. Hopkins is excellent in his role, as is Foster. The Silence of the Lambs is one of the best Thrillers of all time and the best film of 1991.
10/10 stars.
