Nothing more Engaging

Rating: 9/10 (8 October 2019)

I am writing down this review in 2019, many a years after the movie's release.
But this production with all its setup is one of the most engaging and poetic movies ever. Hopkins speaks with his face alone. He does not need the dialogues. And when he does deliver the dialogues, its scary and to an audience, enchanting.
You never know if the lambs have gone silent but the protagonist, our dear girl with the antagonist, a man bent on his wishes brings out scenes that are scarier than horror movies and yet you cannot close your eyes but watch in silent yet visible anticipation.
