I always thought that line sounded pretty ridiculous and corny. And boy did I get sick of everybody going around quoting it! It was the most annoying and embarrassing movie meme since "E.T. phone home" and until "Yeah baby!".
Not only that but we don't know exactly what he does to Chilton. We know he obviously kills him and we know it's more than likely horrible but we don't know what or how. Not knowing is so much worse in this case.
The other great thing about that Academy Awards ceremony, was having Kathy Bates presenting the award, having previously won Best Actress the year before for her role in Misery.
One of only 3 movies ever to win all of the Big 5 Oscar categories. Both of the others, It Happened One Night and One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest would make for great reactions Kat.
Demme directed Caged Heat, which was a 70's exploitation/blacksploitation film that's up on UA-cam for free. I highly recommend it. It's pretty cheesy but you can see his talent even at that early stage.
Yes, truly one of the best films ever made. I watch over and over again, not because I have affinity with serial killers, but rather because this film is so well made. From the screenplay to the performances to the directing, it is just superb. All the Oscars were richly deserved. Those that have not watched this because of the subject matter don’t realize that they are missing out on a jewel of filmmaking.
Many people don't recognize the actor who plays Buffalo Bill (Ted Levine) who later played in the popular TV series Monk, as Monk's boss, Captain Stottlemeyer!
Per the books, he kept Ids and cash , alternate financial sources ( traveler checks, etc ) stashed in several different just in case. An airport long term rental locker would be a great place for that. The tourist could have just been killed for his clothing.
He wasn't giving a clue, he was giving the Senator shit for being so perfectly put together for no reason when her daughter was in a serial killer's hands.
@@stopthephilosophicalzombie9017 The media and hollywood has never, and will never, acknowledge that AGP is a thing, since that would lead to people questioning the "adult" abuse mill. Also the FBI at this point are more concerned with political threats to their power and working with the CIA regarding image and popular belief that they don't really care about actual criminals. Though arguably that was their original cause for being, as people warned when its creation was proposed.
You noticed Hannibal never blinks. Anthony Hopkins made it a point to never blink when he was on camera. Makes it very subtly unsettling. Just one more bit of brilliance in this film. Such a masterpiece.
@@crwydrynywould make sense cause in that moment they have him restrained and he's supposed to look vulnerable. Or at least that was part of the illusion before all hell breaks loose
Michael Caine doesn't blink while filming. He tried for eight years to refrain from blinking in daily life because it said "Don't blink. You must never blink" in the book "Teach yourself acting" because it would mesmerize the audience. It also made his friends and family think he'd gone nuts, "They thought I was a psychopath. I used to frighten the life out of people."
Cristopher Lloyd did the same thing both as "Doc" Brown in Back to The Future, and Judge Doom in Who Framed Roger Rabbit. ...Admittedly, neither character is in quite the same weight class as Hannibal Lecter. Heh. Still, it gives the performance an extra edge of sorts.
I saw this in the theater when it was first released. When the lights go out in the basement and Clarice is fumbling around in total darkness is one of the scariest scenes I've ever watched.
Me too, wasn't that the strategy of a real life american serial rapist and murderer? Acting helpless/wounded, so the women let their guard down. I can't remember his name at the moment.
One little bit of trivia - when Clarice and Lecter first meet, he copies her accent to mock her. That wasn't actually scripted, and Jodie Foster (who had been working hard on the accent) took it quite personally. Anthony hadn't meant to upset her, and after they discussed it, became good friends, collaborating on how to play the characters. Even though they have so few interactions, they are ALL excellent.
@@stopthephilosophicalzombie9017jeebus I've been trying to pull that memory up. Like i knew i'd seen hannibal at dinner with a cop, but couldn't remember hopkins in it. Brian Cox did ok in it. Good film
I was born and raised in West Virginia, so I always appreciated the effort that Jodie Foster put into nailing the accent. Most actors put too much Deep South or Texas into it.
I love how she code switches with it too - it's flattened when she talks to authority figures like Jack, but it deepens sometimes; intentionally, like when she's clearing out the deputies, and when she's talking to Mr. Bimmel, or unintentionally, like when she's lost in memories, when she's full of adrenaline in the basement, and when she's talking to someone that sounds more country themselves.
Sgt Pembry was cordial to him too. There is no rule that will keep Lecter from killing you if he sees a need to do so. He's not an honorable sociopath, he's just a sociopath who wants people to think he's honorable because it benefits him for people to think so. He doesn't refrain from killing people who treat him well; after all, look at Will Graham. No, the only reason he didn't kill Clarice is because he had a boner for her and she never got in his way. Lecter won't kill you if he thinks he can use you, but even when you hold that status, it's very ephemeral.
13:33 Vicks vapor rub was used by a majority of forensic workers- prior to that it was just any oily jelly mixed with mint (because mint is such a strong overwhelming smell it can block out smells even that of decay/rot)
We used Vicks and menthol chewing gum to help mask the smell when I was deployed to Gitmo while serving as a Hospital Corpsman in the Navy. I was part of a rotation sent to provide care to guards and detainees. There were a few hunger strikers while I was there, and the CO was determined that no one was going to starve themselves to death on his watch. We had to drop nasogastric tubes to feed them Ensure. The hunger strikers would cover their jumpsuits in their own feces, and shove bread up their nostrils. That was so we had to get close, and use curettes to get the bread out before we could drop the NG tubes (the detainees were strapped down to chairs for the feeding process). Even the smell of Vicks barely did anything to mask the smell of feces. As soon as the *CELL BLOCK* doors opened, you were gagging on the smell 50+ feet away. It was beyond overwhelming once your face was right up next to their feces-smeared chests... That was not a remotely fun job...
Seriously. Kat fell for it immediately, despite knowing she was watching a serial killer movie. Same deal with Psycho. She fell for Anthony Perkins false charm.
Especially since umm...there was an IMMEDIATE CUT of Hannibal saying "Bill must already be searching for that next special lady", then we see a special lady drive into a parking lot, a creeper watching her through night vision goggles, and then *gasp!* as if out of nowhere-- a man in that very same parking lot, trying to fit a sofa into a VAN! 😂😂😂
This is the paradox of the Bundy ploy Cause let's be honest, most of time when someone is injured, it's not a ploy. Most of the time if you find someone injured and can help them it's not a trick by some serial killer cause most people are not serial killers. But there's always that small chance someone might be dangerous and faking an injury to trick unsuspecting people. I guess in these situations you just gotta go with your gut and be careful while assisting someone in need.
Sixteen minutes. Hopkins was on screen for only _16 minutes_ and it's still one of the most memorable and genuinely terrifying roles in thriller history. Masterful performances from both him and Foster... and, frankly, everyone. Perfect storm of awesome.
The exact wording is "appearing on screen for little more than 16 minutes" which reasonable people take as how long he's in the movie for, and by my DVD copy that translates to 34 minutes 54 seconds including voice time as he enters then exits each of the ten scenes he is in. What makes the figure believable to be fair, other than how unfair it is to Hopkins by having reputable sites blindly repeat it without checking, is that Hannibal is completely absent for extended periods of the movie twice, once for almost 20 minutes and another for over 25 minutes. Also his first appearance isn't until almost 12 minutes in. Here's the breakdown from my DVD giving start - end timestamps = duration (running total): 11:55 - 18:38 = 6:43 (6:43) "May I see your credentials?" 26:54 - 30:20 = 3:26 (10:09) "Your bleeding has stopped." 50:03 - 55:20 = 5:17 (15:26) "Quid pro quo" 57:17 - 58:20 = 1:03 (16:29) "His first name is Louis" 58:49 - 1:02:10 = 3:21 (19:50) "Where will it tickle you?" 1:04:03 - 1:10:45 = 6:42 (26:32) "Good evening, Clarice." 1:11:23 - 1:15:10 = 3:47 (30:19) "Mind the drawings please." 1:16:52 - 1:19:31 = 2:39 (32:58) "Talk to him!" 1:21:13 - 1:21:33 = 0:20 (33:18) "Pulse 84." 1:47:26 - 1:49:02 = 1:36 (34:54) "I'm having an old friend for dinner."
And he was nominated - and won - the Oscar for Best Actor. It just feels like he's in the movie more than that and that he's a lead character, when it's a supporting character at best.
@@d.-_-.b Otterpoet stated Hopkins was on screen for 16 minutes and was right. His voice could be heard more at different times but that doesn’t mean he was on screen. Reasonable people would think “on screen” means…on the screen, a visual thing. You know, because the speakers gives you audio and the screen gives you visual. Case closed, bring on the next. lol. I’m just kidding. I don’t really care, I’m just starting to practice law and trying to work on closing arguments. Not at a school or anything, just randomly chosen comments in the comment section. I just drop in, pick a side and go to work. It doesn’t pay very much, though.
Everyone in this thread is correct. Lecter's visual onscreen time can be measured at only sixteen minutes even if his presence, through voice and shots that don't show him directly, is much greater than that. Regardless of perspective the point is the same, which is that his character has a massive impact.
The Silence of the Lambs novel is actually a sequel to an earlier novel called Red Dragon, which was made into a movie called Manhunter in 1986, with Brian Cox in the role of Hannibal Lecter and William Petersen as Will Graham. It was remade as Red Dragon in 2002 with Anthony Hopkins as Lecter and Ed Norton as Will Graham.
@@44excalibur Red Dragon is Thomas Harris' best novel. Manhunter, even though it changes quite a few things, is easily my favorite of its adaptations (even better than the Hannibal season adapting it, and I adore that show). It's such a stylish, genuinely scary thriller. The 2002 movie is shockingly low-quality, wasting a great cast on a dumb Hollywood production that missed every nuance.
When the director Ridley Scott was studying the books Silence of the Lambs and Hannibal, he was trying to figure out this powerful connection between Hannibal and Clarice. Then he finally got it. They were “reluctant soulmates.” Great description.
@@ct6852 and it was trash in comparison. Ridley Scott was always a "hit or miss" director, he has some of the greatest masterpieces of all time in his filmography (Alien, Blade Runner, Gladiator) and some other great films as well (Black Hawk Down, The Martian) but he also had some proper shitters (Hannibal, Alien Covenant, Napoleon)
@@yomama629 I didn't love Hannibal at first, but it really grew on me after playing on cable and HBO a lot. A lot of rewatchability. Very true that not all Scott movies are equal...but I think each one has something notable or exceptional about it...even if it doesn't always hold until the end. Probably in the top twelve directors of all time.
When Starling first meets Lecter in his cell, he mentions a picture he drew of the Belvedere monastery. Buffalo Bill lived in Belvedere, Ohio. His last words to the Senator were "love your suit," and Buffalo Bill is making a skin suit. He's having fun by throwing clues in everyone's faces without them knowing.
Actually, Kat... this one is a biggie. .. winner of 5 Academy Awards ... Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Actress (Foster), Best Actor (Hppkins), Best Director and Best Picture of 1991 ... a case could be made that this IS the best horror film of All-Time.
Following Buffalo Bill into the basement does seem like a bad move at first blush, but you have to look at the whole picture. Her people arent nearby and it would take police likely 10 minutes or more to get there. She also knows Katherine Martin is being held there. If she stays upstairs or exits the home, leaving Bill with Katherine, she will likely be killed. Tough call, but the right one, imho. Excellent video, as usual! ❤
I have said the exact same thing in other reactions. Yes, she should have called for back up if she could (pre cell phones), but she couldn't just wait. That's exactly why the police are taking it in the ass for waiting at the Robb Elementary shooting in Texas instead of going in.
Starling is also very ambitious and has already experienced others taking credit for her work. If she called for backup and Buffalo Bill escaped, or Katherine was killed, she would get the blame (even if she was following the rules).
The correct move was to call for aid, give information, and then carefully pursue to make sure he didn't escape through secondary exits. The current victim is a secondary issue; the primary objective is to prevent more victims.
I've always liked that the bug guys were at her graduation. She obviously invited them. In my head, Clarice and the slightly cross-eyed PhD had a nice dinner of burgers and beers.
And getting interrupted by someone walking into the room while you are dong the Buffalo Bill dance in front of a full length mirror after seeing the movie.... that's the real horror of this story.
I've been there it was when I was a Teenager and my Sister went and told my Mom that I was being creepy like in the movie and then I got grounded my only defense was I wearing my own clothes and not human skin
It's disturbing that I got 43 likes for this. I honestly never got caught doing anything like that. Lol besides I think Kat's "real horror of the story" was funnier than mine. I think her proclamation is the official one for each video anyway. 🙂
This is hands down one of the best movies ever made. I loved this reaction and especially your impersonation of Professor Xavier when the anxiety reaches it's high point :)
Two of my favorite parts, when Clarice shoots back with "No, you ate yours" its the first time Hannibal is like 'Hm I like this one'. And the fact that Clarice is the only person to lie to him and fool him successfully. He probably was more impressed than angry really.
I adore and admire this movie more than I can say. Jodie Foster is a force and just incredible. She and the movie swept the Oscars that year, and Hopkins famously won an Oscar for being on screen for 16 minutes. ✨

I've been watching your reactions for a while now, and seeing you put two and two together with Hannibal's escape plans just has me like: "Ha ha!!! She knows the game, now!" 😂
There is a really short scene in this movie that perfectly captures Demme’s masterful direction. After all that Clarice has been through in Tennessee, she’s walking through the airport. A male extra passes directly in front of her and gives her a look, and she clutches her bag a little tighter. Extras don’t pass in front of the main actors unless specifically instructed by the director. It’s such a quick little scene that reminds the audience of the world Clarice inhabits, calling back to the elevator scene where all the men stare down at her. This movie is nothing short of a masterpiece.
Kat has really gone top shelf with this one. A movie you could really sink their teeth into. Thumbs up on this comment if Wednesday (Katday) is your favorite day of the week.👍
She reminds me of Brenda from the first Scary Movie. Fun to watch when I've already seen the movie but in theaters it'd be annoying. Was fun watching it here though. I hope she doesn't start holding back in future videos. I thought her reaction really added something positive to just rewatching it.
@@realrebelli0n I totally agree but with this being a reaction channel she can spread her wings. My comment was merely just against the haters in the comments. I rather dislike reaction channels where they don't actually react. I want to hear their thoughts and not just watch clips of something with someone totally silent in the corner.
Really liked this reaction. Maybe you should expand your channel to include more than just horror movies because there are many quality movies that I would like to see you react to.
Thomas Harris Wrote 4 Hannibal Lecter Books : Red Dragon, The Silence of the lambs, Hannibal Hannibal Rising ALL of which were adapted into movies ( Red Dragon was adapted TWICE: Manhunter & Red Dragon )

7:17 "Straight home to the shower, dear! Straight home! We think of Miss Mofet, later...She'll be waiting on her tuffet!" I bust my gut laughin' at your reactions! 🤣🤣 Subbed
I just wanna say, people always use Sarah Connor & Ellen Ridley as examples of strong female characters (that have ways been around), well I’d like to add Clarice Starling to that list. lol it’s like we tend to forget about her since she didn’t battle killer cyborgs or killer xenomorphs, but killers of the serial kind.
Yeah, I think the thing about Sarah Connor and Ellen Ripley is that they're more action heroes - at least action hero adjacent (at least in the sequels - spoiler alert for 40 year old movies) - whereas Clarice isn't, so when we're talking "strong female characters" we think of action/sci fi before we think of thrillers, I think. I would say that Sarah Connor, Ripley, Leia, and Trinity are the Mount Rushmore of Sci Fi females... arguably "action heroes"... although again... action hero adjacent definitely, but "action hero" is a bit thornier... with the "action" part but also the "hero" part because two are clearly protagonists but the other two are... mostly? But not entirely. (I'd say Sarah is an action hero in 2, not 1; I'd say Ripley gets there in 2, not 1, although she's adjacent in 1 - more of a Final Girl? But not "just" that either... Trinity definitely is, that one's easy... Leia is pretty much action hero adjacent right off the bat, but I'm not sure she gets full-on status... I'm not sure she gets enough "action" moments to fully get there in the movies... but what is there in the movies also hints at her being capable of it, and that plus the books, you can argue she gets there at times? But I'd say overall, nah.) The great thing about that 4some is that they all get there in different ways: one starts out a fully formed action hero badass (Trinity, with an iconic badass intro), one starts out pretty tough, definitely fully formed as a "strong" and confident character (Leia) whereas Ripley, while starting out pretty "strong" as far as she's assertive (like when she confronts Ash) but she's not full-on movie badass until the 2nd movie, like Sarah... so it's cool how they all kinda have different journeys to get there. As far as other non-sci fi "strong" female characters, in addition to Clarice, I think Marge Gunderson from "Fargo" is up there with Clarice. I think she's a really interesting character because of how unorthodox she is. I heard somebody describe her as a "badass" and I kinda think the opposite. Like... she's a "strong" character because the *writing* is strong, and she's very capable, but she's like the opposite of the traditional detective hero character. Typically you get these hard-boiled, tortured, obsessed detective types, but she's got this incredible work/life balance that like... she goes to work, is very thorough and capable, then goes home and leaves work at work. (She's also introduced pretty late in the movie, which again: another interesting/unorthodox choice by the Coens.) I'm not a huge Coen bros fan ("The Big Lebowski" is an all-timer, "Burn After Reading" is kinda brilliant, but other than that... I appreciate the talent, I definitely appreciate that "Fargo" and "Oh Brother, Where Art Thou" are really well-crafted movies) and I'm definitely not a huge "Fargo" fan, but I appreciate the craftsmanship, of the movie and also of the character of Marge, specifically.
What an incredible movie, amazing performances from the entire cast especially Ted Levine who can sometimes get overlooked. No matter how many times I watch this movie I’m still floored by it! So happy to see you react to it!
OMG Kat, your expressive face is so entertaining to watch during your reactions. And you make so many fun noises along the way, too! All that, plus a totally disarming smile.... Yes, it's fair to say you are one of my favorite reactors!
Clarice cannot just run away when she meets Jame Gumb. Katherine is likely in the house and may get killed if Clarice runs away. She is duty bound to attempt to catch him and save her.
That's not true. First Responders, Police Officers, Firefighters have a duty to their safety first. So, ultimately it is the judgement of the individual on whether to move in or wait for back up. She was a trainee, outmatched, in his environment, and had yet to notify local law enforcement. She went in too early. Objective is to Save everyone else by stopping Buffalo Bill, save Catherine if possible. Letting Buffalo Bill escape, would have been a tragic mistake. He probably had an escape plan already set up.
I clapped out loud when you picked up on the face wearing scene. You're the first reactor I've seen that got it right away! You went from terrified of horror movies to guessing major plot points! Bravo girl!
I saw this as a double feature with "Misery" at a drive-in theater. In the rain. With two of my friends who kept jumping in the little Honda we were in. I'm still in therapy since that night.
I saw it at a small local cinema when it first came out. I was not even 16, went with a classmate from school. The old guy at the entrance said "if anyone asks you tell them you're 18". I don't remember much after that, but I loved it. I have seen it too many times after that and the memories have merged in my brain.
“How do you even watch another movie” is fair. This is truly a perfect movie and probably my favourite of all time. I rewatch it often because it’s so damn good. Few movies will compare unfortunately! Your reaction was great. There is a prequel and sequel where Hopkins is just as enthralling but overall not as good. And if you’re interested in Lecter’s origin story, the Hannibal tv series with Mads Mikkelsen is super top shelf amazing quality.
One of my top five favorite movies of all time. It doesnt matter how many times I've seen it. Every time i watch it still feels like the first time. The suspense. The acting. 10/10
3:30🤣😂🤣 what a unique reaction to what migs said😂 What a brilliant move by the director when hannibal distracted the warden so he'd forget his pen on his bed. Nice.
I do think you need to re-think your “hatred” of horror movies as you have become connoisseur of them ha ha, I love how animated you become over these films, great fun to watch x
There are four other films in the franchise: Manhunter (1986), Hannibal (2001), Red Dragon (2002) & Hannibal Rising (2007) ...Anthony Hopkins as Hannibal lector is is Hannibal & Red Dragon
One of the best pieces of method acting. Hopkins said that when he was deciding how to play Lector, he chose to model all the characteristics after a spider. The way he stands in the center of his cell like a spider in the middle of its web, the very small movements he makes when he isn’t yet ready to strike, the sucking sound he makes like a spider sucking blood from a fly, every minor detail in each scene he asked himself how a spider would react. As a result, Lector became one of the most unsettling screen villains ever.
“Method acting is a technique or type of acting in which an actor aspires to encourage sincere and emotionally expressive performances by fully inhabiting the role of the character. It is an emotion-oriented technique instead of classical acting that is primarily action-based.“ The role of the spider is what he was trying to fully express and inhabit. Thus, method acting. And Hopkins used the very term himself when talking about it.
Anthony Hopkins based Lector's voice after HAL the computer from 2001 A Space Odyssey. An entity of great intelligence that feels itself to be beyond the beings it is compelled to live with.
@@brucebieberly4166 Psychopaths always feel superior, they rationalize the emotional behavior of normal people, which in their opinion is stupidity, they consider most people to be hypocritical, cowardly losers who do not want to see the unpleasant truth about reality. There is an interview on YT with a young psychopathic woman. What she says about people is unfortunately true - that close relationships between people are actually a kind of trade, e.g. love, "I give you sex and you give me a sense of security." If this disorder did not give some advantage, it would not be so common.

Okay, props for sure. That was easily the best SotL reaction I've seen. So glad you found the last line as funny as I did. I first saw this with my Mom at the theatre, and as we walked out, we both agreed Hopkins would win an Oscar for his role as Lechter... and he did.
Kat!! You are the first reactor I've seen to figure out how Lecter escaped....and right away too! Well done. The rest of your reaction, as always, was fantastic. Keep being fun, engaging, beautiful, and awesome!! 😊
I was howling with laughter when you said tetanus was the real horror of this movie- it’s been so long since I’ve watched one of your videos, I’d forgotten! That’s one of my favorite things you do! AND THEN you said “Help him!” And I screamed “NOOOOOOO!!!” LOL
Buffalo Bill has a number of real-world influences - the skin suit is taken from Ed Gein, the injured act is taken from Ted Bundy and the pit where he holds his victims is based on Gary M Heidnik.
I remember hearing an NPR review about this movie when it first premiered. The host of the review played the clip of Clarice's roommate asking her if she thinks Hannibal will come after her after he escapes. However, the host of the review didn't give away the spoiler. He set up the scene as 'IF Lector would escape, would he seek out Clarice'. So while I was wrapped up with Wild Bill and thinking Lector stays locked up, image my surprise when he escapes in a violent manner. If Buffalo Bill was bad, Lector was far worse.
That dog was in a few movies. Her name is Darla. She was also in Pee Wee's Big Adventure, The 'Burbs (one I highly recommend for you as a sort of spoof on horror), and Batman Returns.
I dont think I have ever come across a YT Channel that has made me happier. Your evident joie de vivre is simply infectious. The Silence of the Lambs is one of my favourite movies, and somehow, you just improved it. A wonderful video. I look forward to your next and if I may can I suggest a film that is a total departure from this, the British Horror Comedy Shaun of the Dead. I will say no more but I think you would love it.
Jodi Foster’s speech about the lambs is so, so good, and she did such a fantastic job as Clarice. When Dr. Lecter hands Clarice the file, and touches her finger, I think that is one of the most intimate, and creepy, moments I’ve seen.
I saw an interview with Jodie Foster a few years ago (I think it was on the Graham Norton show) and she said that she was totally afraid of Anthony Hopkins as Hannibal Lecter and actively avoided him through the whole shoot of the movie, never talking to him once on set out of character until the last day of filming when he made a point of sitting down with her and working things out (they're friends now, lol). During the shoot, he kept trying to think up things to freak her out, like that weird sound he makes after the "fava beans and chianti" line and him stroking her finger. Her reaction to that sound was so good, they left it in the movie. She was really struggling to keep her composure in that scene IRL. Lol. X)
Fun fact. A young and buff Anthony Hopkins co-starred in the 1968 Academy Award winning film _The Lion in Winter._ The movie stared Peter O'Toole and the late great Katharine Hepburn as King Henry II and Queen Eleanore of Aquitaine. Hepburn played the mother to Hopkins' Richard, Nigel Terry's John and John Castle's Geoffrey. The story is of the royal family meeting for Christmas court to decide among other things who is next in the line of succession. Hopkins credits Hepburn with teaching him how to be a proper movie actor. And Hepburn is phenomenal in the movie. Hepburn's razor sharp wit, impeccable diction and amazing dignity became the basis for Hopkins' portrayal of Hannibal Lecter in _The Silence of the Lambs._ I highly recommend the film.
@@ct6852 I am a huge Peter O'Toole fan but have not seen that. The last thing I saw him in was The Tudors where he played the Pope. But if you want to see a couple of great Peter O'Toole performance later in his career try _Creator_ opposite Mariel Hemmingway or _My Favorite Year_ opposite Mark-Linn Baker. But avoid _Supergirl_ with Helen Slater. Watching O'Toole offer her a "Squirt" is just too creepy. :)
@@robertanderson6929 Yeah he gets a tad creepy in Venus, too. And it's definitely acknowledged in the story. Lol. But it's worth seeing if you haven't. I've been meaning to see Lawrence of Arabia for soooo long. Need to get that done. I know it's the movie that got Spielberg into directing. I think I've seen My Favorite Year.
@@ct6852 _Lawrence of Arabia_ is worth the watch for O'Toole and Sharif's performances. But if you have not seen _The Lion in Winter_ then you definitely need to. Seeing Katharine Hepburn give as good as she gets from Peter O'Toole is priceless. Hepburn and Hopkins have some great scenes together too. But once you've seen it you'll recognize instantly where Hopkins got his motivation for Hannibal Lecter.
Fun fact: Lecter tells Clarice exactly where to find Buffalo Bill at their first meeting. She asks about his drawing and he says it's of the Duomo, as seen from the Belvedere. Bill lives in Belvedere, OH, and that's where he started his killing spree (and where Starling inadvertently finds him at the end). It's clearer in the book, but Lecter knew (or suspected) Jame Gumb was Buffalo Bill because Benjamin Raspail was both Gumb's lover and Lecter's patient, and Raspail told Lecter about him. Lecter hid the clue in plain sight, so to speak.
Still can't get over the fact that Ted Levine (Bufallo Bill) later in his life played Cpt. Stottlemeyer in "Monk"... So different... great actor. Addendum: Do not bother watching the sequel movie "Hannibal". Not only is the script mediocre at best (with 2 halfway memorable scenes), but also they recast Clarice with Julianne Moore, who plays the role so differently that it seems like a completely new character. And she is not half as likeable as Jodie Foster was in the role.
I love this film. Hopkins won the Oscar for just being in it for just 16 minutes (and yet it wasn't the shortest amount of time for an Oscar) Right at the star Lecter was playing with Starling; "That is the Duomo as seen from the Belvedere. Do you know Florence?" Belvedere, Buffalo Bill lived in Belvedere USA. You can tell from Lecter's posturing that he was impressed by her intelligence. If Starling gave him his view, their would never had been a scam, and he wouldn't have escaped. The novel Room with a View, starts with an airing of a grievance of a room lacking a view of, where else but Florence. "His pulse never got above 85" In the ambulance, the EMT states the patient has a pulse of 85. The whole prison break scene is really interesting: From his 2nd dinner of Lam Chops Extra Rare (the lambs he kills are the guards, while dinner isn't his) to the music (the Goldberg Variations, a cold calculating piece of classical music by Brahms, to which Lecter is entranced, a fugue state, preparing for his savage attack) to his brutality (akin to an animal wrapped in a skin-suite) and the artistic flourishes with the body as an angel, is all pure distraction to aid in his escape. In the book, Hannibal eats the liver with a nice Amarone. When the director asked why Hopkins was standing, waiting for Foster's character, he replied, "because I can smell her approaching". I also love the joke that only medical people or the chemistry-savvy caught; the whole liver and Fava Beans quote - Lecter would be treated with drugs called Monoamine Oxidase Inhibitors (MAOIs) but you can't take them with Liver, Beans, or wine. He's making a professional joke and stating that he's off his medication at the same time! If you ever decide to react to a horror tv series, I must suggest the Hannibal tv show, as it was so stylish and artfully done!
The exact wording is "appearing on screen for little more than 16 minutes" which reasonable people take as how long he's in the movie for, and by my DVD copy that translates to 34 minutes 54 seconds including voice time as he enters then exits each of the ten scenes he is in. What makes the figure believable to be fair, other than how unfair it is to Hopkins by having reputable sites blindly repeat it without checking, is that Hannibal is completely absent for extended periods of the movie twice, once for almost 20 minutes and another for over 25 minutes. Also his first appearance isn't until almost 12 minutes in. Here's the breakdown from my DVD giving start - end timestamps = duration (running total): 11:55 - 18:38 = 6:43 (6:43) "May I see your credentials?" 26:54 - 30:20 = 3:26 (10:09) "Your bleeding has stopped." 50:03 - 55:20 = 5:17 (15:26) "Quid pro quo" 57:17 - 58:20 = 1:03 (16:29) "His first name is Louis" 58:49 - 1:02:10 = 3:21 (19:50) "Where will it tickle you?" 1:04:03 - 1:10:45 = 6:42 (26:32) "Good evening, Clarice." 1:11:23 - 1:15:10 = 3:47 (30:19) "Mind the drawings please." 1:16:52 - 1:19:31 = 2:39 (32:58) "Talk to him!" 1:21:13 - 1:21:33 = 0:20 (33:18) "Pulse 84." 1:47:26 - 1:49:02 = 1:36 (34:54) "I'm having an old friend for dinner."
The more I watch her reaction videos, she cures my depression & her face expressions are adorable. At a party, she would be the life of it.❤ Unlike some OTT reactors, you can see her brain processing what she's watching, & that genuine vibe you get from her is very addictive & I love it.😊 6.20. I loved her doing the "shock horror coughing"😅 She's got the comedy quality.👍
Well said. I too love that Kat isn't just jumping and freaking out; she's THERE, invested in the narrative, thinking about what they're doing and what she'd do. And she gets drawn so deeply in, her lack of self-consciousness is wonderful. Also, whoever edits her videos is a genius.
I saw this movie as a child. Ever since I heard that line, "I'm having an old friend for dinner," I think about it every time I hear it in the real world and in movies. It has the perfect vagueness that it's impossible to forget. I love that line.
I think that look and realization smile/smirk says everything. I really enjoy your reactions. You have that tiny bit of psychotic and terror combination i love.
I agree; a perfect movie. 10/10. I don't think I have ever seen you this engaged and captivated in a reaction before, from start to end. 😀 Now you also know why Jodie Foster headlining True Detective S4 as an officer of the law, is a big thing for my generation. She was absolutely phenomenal in this film.
PS I really hope you watch the sequel Hannibal! Jodie Foster isn't the lead anymore but Julianne Moore takes the role of Clarice and she does a wonderful job. They still cast Anthony Hopkins as Hannibal and he's just as brilliant in the sequel as he is in Silence of the Lambs.
One of my top 3 favorite movies. I don't know if it's a horror film as much as a psychological thriller. All of the Hannibal books and movies are excellent!
"I do wish we could chat longer, but I'm having an old friend for dinner." That is one of the funniest yet horrifying lines ever.
Great line to end the movie on
I laugh every time I hear it
I always thought that line sounded pretty ridiculous and corny. And boy did I get sick of everybody going around quoting it! It was the most annoying and embarrassing movie meme since "E.T. phone home" and until "Yeah baby!".
Not only that but we don't know exactly what he does to Chilton. We know he obviously kills him and we know it's more than likely horrible but we don't know what or how. Not knowing is so much worse in this case.
His delivery is so great too
Anthony Hopkins was so good that he only needed 16 minutes of screen time to earn the Best Actor Oscar in 1992 👍🏻
I was checking to see if anyone else had mentioned this........
All these years I thought it was 12,it’s still phenomenal
The other great thing about that Academy Awards ceremony, was having Kathy Bates presenting the award, having previously won Best Actress the year before for her role in Misery.
Dame Judi Dench only needed 8 minutes to win, Best Supporting Actress.
@garysmith965 "Matriarchy", that's why...😌
It was absolutely a perfect movie, winning Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Screenplay.
The only horror movie ever to win Best Picture
One of only 3 movies ever to win all of the Big 5 Oscar categories.
Both of the others, It Happened One Night and One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest would make for great reactions Kat.
@@charlize1253calling it a horror is absolutely correct, a slasher almost. I would love to have reactions to 'Manhunter', my favourite.
Demme directed Caged Heat, which was a 70's exploitation/blacksploitation film that's up on UA-cam for free. I highly recommend it. It's pretty cheesy but you can see his talent even at that early stage.
Yes, truly one of the best films ever made. I watch over and over again, not because I have affinity with serial killers, but rather because this film is so well made. From the screenplay to the performances to the directing, it is just superb. All the Oscars were richly deserved. Those that have not watched this because of the subject matter don’t realize that they are missing out on a jewel of filmmaking.
"He's kind of charming in a dead eyed way" love that characterization so much
Many people don't recognize the actor who plays Buffalo Bill (Ted Levine) who later played in the popular TV series Monk, as Monk's boss, Captain Stottlemeyer!
He plays a detective in the movie ''HEAT'' Great Movie.

OMG, it sure is! Never put that together and I watched Monk regularly.
I realized that a while ago. I had to double check lol they're such different characters
40:53 after he killed the ambulance crew, he killed a tourist. I’m assuming he killed the tourist for his clothes and identification
He probably killed more than one. He had to cover his tracks, right? Plus, hey, a man's gotta eat.
All the things Lector was capable of and you think it was hard for him to leave the country?
Per the books, he kept Ids and cash , alternate financial sources ( traveler checks, etc ) stashed in several different just in case. An airport long term rental locker would be a great place for that.
The tourist could have just been killed for his clothing.
More like he ate the tourist ,no?
@@SuhaimiMohamedShariff No.

Even then, Lecter was still giving clues. This script was so good!
He wasn't giving a clue, he was giving the Senator shit for being so perfectly put together for no reason when her daughter was in a serial killer's hands.
@@stopthephilosophicalzombie9017 The media and hollywood has never, and will never, acknowledge that AGP is a thing, since that would lead to people questioning the "adult" abuse mill.

Though arguably that was their original cause for being, as people warned when its creation was proposed.

You noticed Hannibal never blinks. Anthony Hopkins made it a point to never blink when he was on camera. Makes it very subtly unsettling. Just one more bit of brilliance in this film. Such a masterpiece.
He blinks several times when told about how the deal was fake
@@crwydrynywould make sense cause in that moment they have him restrained and he's supposed to look vulnerable. Or at least that was part of the illusion before all hell breaks loose
Michael Caine doesn't blink while filming. He tried for eight years to refrain from blinking in daily life because it said "Don't blink. You must never blink" in the book "Teach yourself acting" because it would mesmerize the audience. It also made his friends and family think he'd gone nuts, "They thought I was a psychopath. I used to frighten the life out of people."
Cristopher Lloyd did the same thing both as "Doc" Brown in Back to The Future, and Judge Doom in Who Framed Roger Rabbit.
...Admittedly, neither character is in quite the same weight class as Hannibal Lecter. Heh. Still, it gives the performance an extra edge of sorts.
4:20 he blinks
“HELP HIM!” 5 sec later “ya see this why we never-“ 😂😂

To be fair, she did admit that she would’ve been taken as well.😂
Ya see? This is why ya never listen to me!!

One thing to help, but getting into truck, thats a whole different thing altogether :P
I saw this in the theater when it was first released. When the lights go out in the basement and Clarice is fumbling around in total darkness is one of the scariest scenes I've ever watched.
When you said “help him” with the couch I really questioned your life choices Kat! Lol
Me too, wasn't that the strategy of a real life american serial rapist and murderer? Acting helpless/wounded, so the women let their guard down. I can't remember his name at the moment.

One little bit of trivia - when Clarice and Lecter first meet, he copies her accent to mock her. That wasn't actually scripted, and Jodie Foster (who had been working hard on the accent) took it quite personally. Anthony hadn't meant to upset her, and after they discussed it, became good friends, collaborating on how to play the characters. Even though they have so few interactions, they are ALL excellent.
The kiante & sucking sound he improvised too right?
41:32 @stopthephilosophicalzombie9017 ....but not as good as Hopkins here though..
Great info! Thanks!
@@stopthephilosophicalzombie9017jeebus I've been trying to pull that memory up. Like i knew i'd seen hannibal at dinner with a cop, but couldn't remember hopkins in it. Brian Cox did ok in it. Good film
@@stopthephilosophicalzombie9017 cox version is underseen and underappreciated.👍👍
I was born and raised in West Virginia, so I always appreciated the effort that Jodie Foster put into nailing the accent. Most actors put too much Deep South or Texas into it.
I love how she code switches with it too - it's flattened when she talks to authority figures like Jack, but it deepens sometimes; intentionally, like when she's clearing out the deputies, and when she's talking to Mr. Bimmel, or unintentionally, like when she's lost in memories, when she's full of adrenaline in the basement, and when she's talking to someone that sounds more country themselves.
3:06 Barney survives Lecter because he was always cordial to him.
Sgt Pembry was cordial to him too. There is no rule that will keep Lecter from killing you if he sees a need to do so. He's not an honorable sociopath, he's just a sociopath who wants people to think he's honorable because it benefits him for people to think so. He doesn't refrain from killing people who treat him well; after all, look at Will Graham. No, the only reason he didn't kill Clarice is because he had a boner for her and she never got in his way. Lecter won't kill you if he thinks he can use you, but even when you hold that status, it's very ephemeral.
Barney, the actor in real life, is an awesome dude. Love him in so many things, top of mind Thomas Crowne Affair and Coming to America, etc.
@@nickrizzi4927So many good roles. Currently plays Niecy Nash's father on The Rookie Feds.
Funny thing is also that the actor of Barney was in all the movies including Manhunter (where he plays Cpt Fisk).

13:33 Vicks vapor rub was used by a majority of forensic workers- prior to that it was just any oily jelly mixed with mint (because mint is such a strong overwhelming smell it can block out smells even that of decay/rot)
They also use/used coffee grounds to mask the smell. But that did look like menthol.
We used Vicks and menthol chewing gum to help mask the smell when I was deployed to Gitmo while serving as a Hospital Corpsman in the Navy. I was part of a rotation sent to provide care to guards and detainees. There were a few hunger strikers while I was there, and the CO was determined that no one was going to starve themselves to death on his watch. We had to drop nasogastric tubes to feed them Ensure. The hunger strikers would cover their jumpsuits in their own feces, and shove bread up their nostrils. That was so we had to get close, and use curettes to get the bread out before we could drop the NG tubes (the detainees were strapped down to chairs for the feeding process). Even the smell of Vicks barely did anything to mask the smell of feces. As soon as the *CELL BLOCK* doors opened, you were gagging on the smell 50+ feet away. It was beyond overwhelming once your face was right up next to their feces-smeared chests... That was not a remotely fun job...
"Help him, hes injured." Even the Bundy ploy works nowadays, stay aware and safe ladies!
That very same line nearly got Harrison Ford killed, getting off Air Force One!
😜
Seriously. Kat fell for it immediately, despite knowing she was watching a serial killer movie. Same deal with Psycho. She fell for Anthony Perkins false charm.
Especially since umm...there was an IMMEDIATE CUT of Hannibal saying "Bill must already be searching for that next special lady", then we see a special lady drive into a parking lot, a creeper watching her through night vision goggles, and then *gasp!* as if out of nowhere-- a man in that very same parking lot, trying to fit a sofa into a VAN! 😂😂😂
@@veggiesarefruits Well how was she supposed to know Hannibal was talking about her? He coulda been talking about anybody!
😹
This is the paradox of the Bundy ploy
Cause let's be honest, most of time when someone is injured, it's not a ploy. Most of the time if you find someone injured and can help them it's not a trick by some serial killer cause most people are not serial killers.
But there's always that small chance someone might be dangerous and faking an injury to trick unsuspecting people.
I guess in these situations you just gotta go with your gut and be careful while assisting someone in need.
Sixteen minutes. Hopkins was on screen for only _16 minutes_ and it's still one of the most memorable and genuinely terrifying roles in thriller history. Masterful performances from both him and Foster... and, frankly, everyone. Perfect storm of awesome.

You’re know they are a great when the supporting actor becomes the best actor.
@@d.-_-.b Otterpoet stated Hopkins was on screen for 16 minutes and was right. His voice could be heard more at different times but that doesn’t mean he was on screen. Reasonable people would think “on screen” means…on the screen, a visual thing. You know, because the speakers gives you audio and the screen gives you visual. Case closed, bring on the next. lol. I’m just kidding. I don’t really care, I’m just starting to practice law and trying to work on closing arguments. Not at a school or anything, just randomly chosen comments in the comment section. I just drop in, pick a side and go to work. It doesn’t pay very much, though.
Everyone in this thread is correct. Lecter's visual onscreen time can be measured at only sixteen minutes even if his presence, through voice and shots that don't show him directly, is much greater than that. Regardless of perspective the point is the same, which is that his character has a massive impact.
The Silence of the Lambs novel is actually a sequel to an earlier novel called Red Dragon, which was made into a movie called Manhunter in 1986, with Brian Cox in the role of Hannibal Lecter and William Petersen as Will Graham. It was remade as Red Dragon in 2002 with Anthony Hopkins as Lecter and Ed Norton as Will Graham.
The book, Red Dragon, was so much better than the 2002 movie. The way they discover the killer in the book was way better than the movie.
@@faithinjesus7817 I agree. I also liked Manhunter, even though it strayed far from the book.

When the director Ridley Scott was studying the books Silence of the Lambs and Hannibal, he was trying to figure out this powerful connection between Hannibal and Clarice. Then he finally got it. They were “reluctant soulmates.” Great description.
End of Hannibal book they spend the rest of their lives together. I think the film did it justice with the arm chop. Less subtle but same message.
The director was Jonathan Demme, but yeah, what you said

Ridley Scott was always a "hit or miss" director, he has some of the greatest masterpieces of all time in his filmography (Alien, Blade Runner, Gladiator) and some other great films as well (Black Hawk Down, The Martian) but he also had some proper shitters (Hannibal, Alien Covenant, Napoleon)
@@yomama629 I didn't love Hannibal at first, but it really grew on me after playing on cable and HBO a lot. A lot of rewatchability. Very true that not all Scott movies are equal...but I think each one has something notable or exceptional about it...even if it doesn't always hold until the end. Probably in the top twelve directors of all time.
When Starling first meets Lecter in his cell, he mentions a picture he drew of the Belvedere monastery. Buffalo Bill lived in Belvedere, Ohio. His last words to the Senator were "love your suit," and Buffalo Bill is making a skin suit. He's having fun by throwing clues in everyone's faces without them knowing.

Actually, Kat... this one is a biggie. .. winner of 5 Academy Awards ... Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Actress (Foster), Best Actor (Hppkins), Best Director and Best Picture of 1991 ... a case could be made that this IS the best horror film of All-Time.
I give that award to The Haunting ( 1963 )
It's not. It's not a horror movie. A psych thriller, a classic, a great movie.. but it's not horror.
Kat, you’re the only reactor I’ve seen verbally call out that it was Lecter posing as the cop!
Following Buffalo Bill into the basement does seem like a bad move at first blush, but you have to look at the whole picture.
Her people arent nearby and it would take police likely 10 minutes or more to get there. She also knows Katherine Martin is being held there. If she stays upstairs or exits the home, leaving Bill with Katherine, she will likely be killed.
Tough call, but the right one, imho.
Excellent video, as usual! ❤
I have said the exact same thing in other reactions. Yes, she should have called for back up if she could (pre cell phones), but she couldn't just wait. That's exactly why the police are taking it in the ass for waiting at the Robb Elementary shooting in Texas instead of going in.
Starling is also very ambitious and has already experienced others taking credit for her work. If she called for backup and Buffalo Bill escaped, or Katherine was killed, she would get the blame (even if she was following the rules).
The correct move was to call for aid, give information, and then carefully pursue to make sure he didn't escape through secondary exits. The current victim is a secondary issue; the primary objective is to prevent more victims.
24:31 - That's Clarice and a lamb! I didn't notice it in the film before!
It's the social media. It ruins your ability to focus.
If there ever was such a thing as a perfect movie, this one would definitely be in the running for the title!
I've always liked that the bug guys were at her graduation. She obviously invited them. In my head, Clarice and the slightly cross-eyed PhD had a nice dinner of burgers and beers.
They did, she dates him at the end of the novel
Then she dumps him in Hannibal for Brains and a Nice Wine.
The actor has been in several of Jonathan Demme's films; perhaps a good luck charm in human form.
Damn it. It was cheeseburgers.
And getting interrupted by someone walking into the room while you are dong the Buffalo Bill dance in front of a full length mirror after seeing the movie.... that's the real horror of this story.
Yo…been there, done that 🤦♂️

This is hands down one of the best movies ever made. I loved this reaction and especially your impersonation of Professor Xavier when the anxiety reaches it's high point :)
Two of my favorite parts, when Clarice shoots back with "No, you ate yours" its the first time Hannibal is like 'Hm I like this one'.
And the fact that Clarice is the only person to lie to him and fool him successfully. He probably was more impressed than angry really.
I adore and admire this movie more than I can say. Jodie Foster is a force and just incredible. She and the movie swept the Oscars that year, and Hopkins famously won an Oscar for being on screen for 16 minutes. ✨

same here.
I've been watching your reactions for a while now, and seeing you put two and two together with Hannibal's escape plans just has me like: "Ha ha!!! She knows the game, now!" 😂
There is a really short scene in this movie that perfectly captures Demme’s masterful direction. After all that Clarice has been through in Tennessee, she’s walking through the airport. A male extra passes directly in front of her and gives her a look, and she clutches her bag a little tighter. Extras don’t pass in front of the main actors unless specifically instructed by the director. It’s such a quick little scene that reminds the audience of the world Clarice inhabits, calling back to the elevator scene where all the men stare down at her.
This movie is nothing short of a masterpiece.
Kat: "The poor cat! The poor hungry cat! None of it's right."

@@realrebelli0n I totally agree but with this being a reaction channel she can spread her wings. My comment was merely just against the haters in the comments. I rather dislike reaction channels where they don't actually react. I want to hear their thoughts and not just watch clips of something with someone totally silent in the corner.
Really liked this reaction. Maybe you should expand your channel to include more than just horror movies because there are many quality movies that I would like to see you react to.
"was it a butterfly?"
16:50 says everything you need to know about hannibal - he's the smartest person you'll ever meet - such good writing.

My name is Hannah, and this film came out when I was studying psych in college - you cannot imagine the number of times I was called 'Dr. Hannah-bal'!
Thomas Harris Wrote 4 Hannibal Lecter Books :
Red Dragon,
The Silence of the lambs,
Hannibal
Hannibal Rising
ALL of which were adapted into movies ( Red Dragon was adapted TWICE: Manhunter & Red Dragon )
Hannibal Rising is SHOCKINGLY bad. Harris must have done it just for the money. The others are great.
You're the only reactor, that I've seen, who said to help Buffalo Bill with the couch in the dark. 😁
Dasha of Dasha Reacts also did the same. They both sweet people, but not much for survival instinct.
That was funny. But she did admit to falling for it. SMH 😂
@@ckobo84Dasha is Russian and Kat is Canadian, probably more accustomed to old school values given how they grew up but the West overall has gotten increasingly dangerous in the last 30 years.
@@lucianaromulus1408 right on, bro. Americans would say, "f*ck that shit. i'm not helping. he could be a serial killer."
@chuckleezodiac24 im American and I understand both sides. I wish we were still traditional but it is dangerous trying to be helpful here. I do my best to be courteous, kind, and helpful without jeopardizing my safety. It ain't the 50s anymore sadly.
I laughed my ass off watching this, with "over a lamb ?" and "this is silly behaviour" as two tear inducing LOL moments.
7:17 "Straight home to the shower, dear! Straight home! We think of Miss Mofet, later...She'll be waiting on her tuffet!" I bust my gut laughin' at your reactions! 🤣🤣 Subbed
I know! Kat gets it!
I just wanna say, people always use Sarah Connor & Ellen Ridley as examples of strong female characters (that have ways been around), well I’d like to add Clarice Starling to that list. lol it’s like we tend to forget about her since she didn’t battle killer cyborgs or killer xenomorphs, but killers of the serial kind.
Clarice is a serious bad ass. Also, the fact that her courage is totally unselfish makes her even more bad ass than Hannibal imo.
Don't forget The Bride ;)
Yeah, I think the thing about Sarah Connor and Ellen Ripley is that they're more action heroes - at least action hero adjacent (at least in the sequels - spoiler alert for 40 year old movies) - whereas Clarice isn't, so when we're talking "strong female characters" we think of action/sci fi before we think of thrillers, I think.
I would say that Sarah Connor, Ripley, Leia, and Trinity are the Mount Rushmore of Sci Fi females... arguably "action heroes"... although again... action hero adjacent definitely, but "action hero" is a bit thornier... with the "action" part but also the "hero" part because two are clearly protagonists but the other two are... mostly? But not entirely.
(I'd say Sarah is an action hero in 2, not 1; I'd say Ripley gets there in 2, not 1, although she's adjacent in 1 - more of a Final Girl? But not "just" that either... Trinity definitely is, that one's easy... Leia is pretty much action hero adjacent right off the bat, but I'm not sure she gets full-on status... I'm not sure she gets enough "action" moments to fully get there in the movies... but what is there in the movies also hints at her being capable of it, and that plus the books, you can argue she gets there at times? But I'd say overall, nah.)
The great thing about that 4some is that they all get there in different ways: one starts out a fully formed action hero badass (Trinity, with an iconic badass intro), one starts out pretty tough, definitely fully formed as a "strong" and confident character (Leia) whereas Ripley, while starting out pretty "strong" as far as she's assertive (like when she confronts Ash) but she's not full-on movie badass until the 2nd movie, like Sarah... so it's cool how they all kinda have different journeys to get there.
As far as other non-sci fi "strong" female characters, in addition to Clarice, I think Marge Gunderson from "Fargo" is up there with Clarice. I think she's a really interesting character because of how unorthodox she is. I heard somebody describe her as a "badass" and I kinda think the opposite. Like... she's a "strong" character because the *writing* is strong, and she's very capable, but she's like the opposite of the traditional detective hero character. Typically you get these hard-boiled, tortured, obsessed detective types, but she's got this incredible work/life balance that like... she goes to work, is very thorough and capable, then goes home and leaves work at work. (She's also introduced pretty late in the movie, which again: another interesting/unorthodox choice by the Coens.) I'm not a huge Coen bros fan ("The Big Lebowski" is an all-timer, "Burn After Reading" is kinda brilliant, but other than that... I appreciate the talent, I definitely appreciate that "Fargo" and "Oh Brother, Where Art Thou" are really well-crafted movies) and I'm definitely not a huge "Fargo" fan, but I appreciate the craftsmanship, of the movie and also of the character of Marge, specifically.
The third of only three movies to win all of 'The big 5' Oscars. An achievement still not repeated after more than 30 years.
Yes! Everything Everywhere All at Once came pretty close. Another phenomenal movie 😍
What were the other movies?
'One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest' in 1975 and a 1934 film 'It Happened One Night'.
The oscars are trash that mean nothing.
@@UnsoberIdiot O.k. so it's a shit film then.
What an incredible movie, amazing performances from the entire cast especially Ted Levine who can sometimes get overlooked. No matter how many times I watch this movie I’m still floored by it! So happy to see you react to it!
Ted mastered a role that no one would ever touch.
Ted is brilliant but Oscar wins for the other 2 really mean he was overlooked despite being nominated i believe. Man is a genius though
Buffalo Bill is such an odd character visually I can't always connect him to Ted Levine in anything else, until Ted speaks 😅
he was also great in Joe Dirt!
Hard to believe he is also Stottlemeyer on Monk.
This channel is freaking hilarious. Love it!
OMG Kat, your expressive face is so entertaining to watch during your reactions. And you make so many fun noises along the way, too! All that, plus a totally disarming smile.... Yes, it's fair to say you are one of my favorite reactors!
Clarice cannot just run away when she meets Jame Gumb.
Katherine is likely in the house and may get killed if Clarice runs away.
She is duty bound to attempt to catch him and save her.
Duty as a human, not duty as a LEO.
LEOs are not required to help anyone.
True. But in the movie, if Katherine died, Clarice's lambs would not stop screaming.
She is more of a reacting person than thinking things through at first.
That's not true. First Responders, Police Officers, Firefighters have a duty to their safety first. So, ultimately it is the judgement of the individual on whether to move in or wait for back up. She was a trainee, outmatched, in his environment, and had yet to notify local law enforcement. She went in too early. Objective is to Save everyone else by stopping Buffalo Bill, save Catherine if possible. Letting Buffalo Bill escape, would have been a tragic mistake. He probably had an escape plan already set up.
I clapped out loud when you picked up on the face wearing scene. You're the first reactor I've seen that got it right away! You went from terrified of horror movies to guessing major plot points! Bravo girl!
Very impressive
I saw this as a double feature with "Misery" at a drive-in theater. In the rain. With two of my friends who kept jumping in the little Honda we were in.
I'm still in therapy since that night.
Honestly sounds like my perfect night!
I saw it at a small local cinema when it first came out. I was not even 16, went with a classmate from school. The old guy at the entrance said "if anyone asks you tell them you're 18".
I don't remember much after that, but I loved it. I have seen it too many times after that and the memories have merged in my brain.
Solid night at the drive in. Would've loved to see those back to back for the first time.
“How do you even watch another movie” is fair. This is truly a perfect movie and probably my favourite of all time. I rewatch it often because it’s so damn good. Few movies will compare unfortunately! Your reaction was great. There is a prequel and sequel where Hopkins is just as enthralling but overall not as good. And if you’re interested in Lecter’s origin story, the Hannibal tv series with Mads Mikkelsen is super top shelf amazing quality.
"You never, never, never... no, no!"
Certainly words to live by.
But without some dumb 'yes' moments these horror movies would kinda suck.
One of my top five favorite movies of all time. It doesnt matter how many times I've seen it. Every time i watch it still feels like the first time. The suspense. The acting. 10/10
Having grown up in Memphis, the real horror is that they were at the Memphis airport. Great reaction to a great movie!
Always loved how clarice was the inspiration for Agent Scully in the X files
3:30🤣😂🤣 what a unique reaction to what migs said😂 What a brilliant move by the director when hannibal distracted the warden so he'd forget his pen on his bed. Nice.
I do think you need to re-think your “hatred” of horror movies as you have become connoisseur of them ha ha, I love how animated you become over these films, great fun to watch x
Of all the movies Kat has watched on UA-cam, this one has made her the most animated and tense. Welcome to the club, young lady.
I think you didnt watched her "blairwitch Project" reaction. She is boxing the Air the whole Time 😄👍🏻
WHEN KAT REACTS IS A BALL OF ENTERTAINMENT, SHE'S ADORABLE AND FUNNY.
There are four other films in the franchise: Manhunter (1986), Hannibal (2001), Red Dragon (2002) & Hannibal Rising (2007) ...Anthony Hopkins as Hannibal lector is is Hannibal & Red Dragon
Idk why Kat but your content is captivating. Maybe your bubbly personality or you're wit maybe your smile. Subscription added 😊
I could watch you and your pretend gun searching the house over and over
One of the best pieces of method acting. Hopkins said that when he was deciding how to play Lector, he chose to model all the characteristics after a spider. The way he stands in the center of his cell like a spider in the middle of its web, the very small movements he makes when he isn’t yet ready to strike, the sucking sound he makes like a spider sucking blood from a fly, every minor detail in each scene he asked himself how a spider would react. As a result, Lector became one of the most unsettling screen villains ever.
His performance is excellent, but it isn't Method.
“Method acting is a technique or type of acting in which an actor aspires to encourage sincere and emotionally expressive performances by fully inhabiting the role of the character. It is an emotion-oriented technique instead of classical acting that is primarily action-based.“
The role of the spider is what he was trying to fully express and inhabit. Thus, method acting. And Hopkins used the very term himself when talking about it.
Anthony Hopkins based Lector's voice after HAL the computer from 2001 A Space Odyssey. An entity of great intelligence that feels itself to be beyond the beings it is compelled to live with.
@@brucebieberly4166 Psychopaths always feel superior, they rationalize the emotional behavior of normal people, which in their opinion is stupidity, they consider most people to be hypocritical, cowardly losers who do not want to see the unpleasant truth about reality. There is an interview on YT with a young psychopathic woman. What she says about people is unfortunately true - that close relationships between people are actually a kind of trade, e.g. love, "I give you sex and you give me a sense of security." If this disorder did not give some advantage, it would not be so common.
Watching with Kat is an experience in itself, it's like spending time with a good friend and watching a movie together, awesome. Thanks.
"He took a bite of him. And you're next, my dude" Katch phrase of the week. 🤣
"Glaze, like a donut" was a close 2nd.
I saw it at a small local cinema when it first came out. I was not even 16, went with a classmate from school. The old guy at the entrance said "if anyone asks you tell them you're 18".
I don't remember much after that, but I loved it. I have seen it too many times after that and the memories have merged in my brain.
Omfg. This is hands-down the most entertaining reaction I've ever watched! I'm subscribed now and I can't wait to watch more.
10-4 on that!
Okay, props for sure. That was easily the best SotL reaction I've seen. So glad you found the last line as funny as I did. I first saw this with my Mom at the theatre, and as we walked out, we both agreed Hopkins would win an Oscar for his role as Lechter... and he did.
A logical role for him, as he was known for playing professors and doctors, intelligent characters.
Prequels: Hannibal Rising(2007), Red Dragon (2002), Sequel: Hannibal (2001)
FINALLY! Now, what does this movie, Chainsaw Massacre and Psycho have in common... Clock is ticking, Kitty Kat... Tick.... Tock....
Ed is the answer.
Kat!! You are the first reactor I've seen to figure out how Lecter escaped....and right away too! Well done. The rest of your reaction, as always, was fantastic. Keep being fun, engaging, beautiful, and awesome!! 😊
That's because Kat is probably the smartest person making reaction videos
I was howling with laughter when you said tetanus was the real horror of this movie- it’s been so long since I’ve watched one of your videos, I’d forgotten! That’s one of my favorite things you do! AND THEN you said “Help him!” And I screamed “NOOOOOOO!!!” LOL
Buffalo Bill has a number of real-world influences - the skin suit is taken from Ed Gein, the injured act is taken from Ted Bundy and the pit where he holds his victims is based on Gary M Heidnik.
I remember hearing an NPR review about this movie when it first premiered. The host of the review played the clip of Clarice's roommate asking her if she thinks Hannibal will come after her after he escapes. However, the host of the review didn't give away the spoiler. He set up the scene as 'IF Lector would escape, would he seek out Clarice'. So while I was wrapped up with Wild Bill and thinking Lector stays locked up, image my surprise when he escapes in a violent manner. If Buffalo Bill was bad, Lector was far worse.
Finally Kat reacts to my favorite movie of all time! It absolutely is the perfect movie!
The stuff put under their noses is either Vicks VapoRub, or a form of peppermint oil. It really helps block the smell of decomposition.
That dog was in a few movies. Her name is Darla. She was also in Pee Wee's Big Adventure, The 'Burbs (one I highly recommend for you as a sort of spoof on horror), and Batman Returns.
I dont think I have ever come across a YT Channel that has made me happier. Your evident joie de vivre is simply infectious.
The Silence of the Lambs is one of my favourite movies, and somehow, you just improved it.
A wonderful video. I look forward to your next and if I may can I suggest a film that is a total departure from this, the British Horror Comedy Shaun of the Dead. I will say no more but I think you would love it.
Jodi Foster’s speech about the lambs is so, so good, and she did such a fantastic job as Clarice.
When Dr. Lecter hands Clarice the file, and touches her finger, I think that is one of the most intimate, and creepy, moments I’ve seen.
I saw an interview with Jodie Foster a few years ago (I think it was on the Graham Norton show) and she said that she was totally afraid of Anthony Hopkins as Hannibal Lecter and actively avoided him through the whole shoot of the movie, never talking to him once on set out of character until the last day of filming when he made a point of sitting down with her and working things out (they're friends now, lol).
During the shoot, he kept trying to think up things to freak her out, like that weird sound he makes after the "fava beans and chianti" line and him stroking her finger. Her reaction to that sound was so good, they left it in the movie. She was really struggling to keep her composure in that scene IRL. Lol. X)
Fun fact. A young and buff Anthony Hopkins co-starred in the 1968 Academy Award winning film _The Lion in Winter._ The movie stared Peter O'Toole and the late great Katharine Hepburn as King Henry II and Queen Eleanore of Aquitaine. Hepburn played the mother to Hopkins' Richard, Nigel Terry's John and John Castle's Geoffrey. The story is of the royal family meeting for Christmas court to decide among other things who is next in the line of succession.
Hopkins credits Hepburn with teaching him how to be a proper movie actor. And Hepburn is phenomenal in the movie. Hepburn's razor sharp wit, impeccable diction and amazing dignity became the basis for Hopkins' portrayal of Hannibal Lecter in _The Silence of the Lambs._ I highly recommend the film.
Peter O Toole...I think one of his last movies was a really interesting one called Venus. Right before he died.
@@ct6852 I am a huge Peter O'Toole fan but have not seen that. The last thing I saw him in was The Tudors where he played the Pope.
But if you want to see a couple of great Peter O'Toole performance later in his career try _Creator_ opposite Mariel Hemmingway or _My Favorite Year_ opposite Mark-Linn Baker. But avoid _Supergirl_ with Helen Slater. Watching O'Toole offer her a "Squirt" is just too creepy. :)
@@robertanderson6929 Yeah he gets a tad creepy in Venus, too. And it's definitely acknowledged in the story. Lol. But it's worth seeing if you haven't. I've been meaning to see Lawrence of Arabia for soooo long. Need to get that done. I know it's the movie that got Spielberg into directing. I think I've seen My Favorite Year.
@@ct6852 _Lawrence of Arabia_ is worth the watch for O'Toole and Sharif's performances. But if you have not seen _The Lion in Winter_ then you definitely need to. Seeing Katharine Hepburn give as good as she gets from Peter O'Toole is priceless. Hepburn and Hopkins have some great scenes together too. But once you've seen it you'll recognize instantly where Hopkins got his motivation for Hannibal Lecter.
I've watched several reactions to this film and without fail, everyone is perfectly fine with Dr. Chilton being eaten. I'm ok with that.
Fun fact: Lecter tells Clarice exactly where to find Buffalo Bill at their first meeting. She asks about his drawing and he says it's of the Duomo, as seen from the Belvedere. Bill lives in Belvedere, OH, and that's where he started his killing spree (and where Starling inadvertently finds him at the end). It's clearer in the book, but Lecter knew (or suspected) Jame Gumb was Buffalo Bill because Benjamin Raspail was both Gumb's lover and Lecter's patient, and Raspail told Lecter about him. Lecter hid the clue in plain sight, so to speak.
Great reaction! I'm glad you picked this one. Indeed a perfect movie! 🙂
Still can't get over the fact that Ted Levine (Bufallo Bill) later in his life played Cpt. Stottlemeyer in "Monk"...
So different... great actor.
Addendum:
Do not bother watching the sequel movie "Hannibal". Not only is the script mediocre at best (with 2 halfway memorable scenes), but also they recast Clarice with Julianne Moore, who plays the role so differently that it seems like a completely new character. And she is not half as likeable as Jodie Foster was in the role.
He was also played Sgt. Tanner in The Fast and the Furious.
He was also in Flubber as well.
Yes, Flubber.
I recall seeing him in Heat, and I think The Hills Have Eyes?
It’s kinda worth it for a game of where’s Gary Oldman?
And in one scene has Lecter seem like Superman.
I love this film. Hopkins won the Oscar for just being in it for just 16 minutes (and yet it wasn't the shortest amount of time for an Oscar) Right at the star Lecter was playing with Starling; "That is the Duomo as seen from the Belvedere. Do you know Florence?" Belvedere, Buffalo Bill lived in Belvedere USA. You can tell from Lecter's posturing that he was impressed by her intelligence. If Starling gave him his view, their would never had been a scam, and he wouldn't have escaped. The novel Room with a View, starts with an airing of a grievance of a room lacking a view of, where else but Florence. "His pulse never got above 85" In the ambulance, the EMT states the patient has a pulse of 85. The whole prison break scene is really interesting: From his 2nd dinner of Lam Chops Extra Rare (the lambs he kills are the guards, while dinner isn't his) to the music (the Goldberg Variations, a cold calculating piece of classical music by Brahms, to which Lecter is entranced, a fugue state, preparing for his savage attack) to his brutality (akin to an animal wrapped in a skin-suite) and the artistic flourishes with the body as an angel, is all pure distraction to aid in his escape. In the book, Hannibal eats the liver with a nice Amarone. When the director asked why Hopkins was standing, waiting for Foster's character, he replied, "because I can smell her approaching".
I also love the joke that only medical people or the chemistry-savvy caught; the whole liver and Fava Beans quote - Lecter would be treated with drugs called Monoamine Oxidase Inhibitors (MAOIs) but you can't take them with Liver, Beans, or wine. He's making a professional joke and stating that he's off his medication at the same time! If you ever decide to react to a horror tv series, I must suggest the Hannibal tv show, as it was so stylish and artfully done!
Fyi, the Goldberg Variations are by Bach.
The exact wording is "appearing on screen for little more than 16 minutes" which reasonable people take as how long he's in the movie for, and by my DVD copy that translates to 34 minutes 54 seconds including voice time as he enters then exits each of the ten scenes he is in.
What makes the figure believable to be fair, other than how unfair it is to Hopkins by having reputable sites blindly repeat it without checking, is that Hannibal is completely absent for extended periods of the movie twice, once for almost 20 minutes and another for over 25 minutes. Also his first appearance isn't until almost 12 minutes in.
Here's the breakdown from my DVD giving start - end timestamps = duration (running total):
11:55 - 18:38 = 6:43 (6:43) "May I see your credentials?"
26:54 - 30:20 = 3:26 (10:09) "Your bleeding has stopped."
50:03 - 55:20 = 5:17 (15:26) "Quid pro quo"
57:17 - 58:20 = 1:03 (16:29) "His first name is Louis"
58:49 - 1:02:10 = 3:21 (19:50) "Where will it tickle you?"
1:04:03 - 1:10:45 = 6:42 (26:32) "Good evening, Clarice."
1:11:23 - 1:15:10 = 3:47 (30:19) "Mind the drawings please."
1:16:52 - 1:19:31 = 2:39 (32:58) "Talk to him!"
1:21:13 - 1:21:33 = 0:20 (33:18) "Pulse 84."
1:47:26 - 1:49:02 = 1:36 (34:54) "I'm having an old friend for dinner."
The more I watch her reaction videos, she cures my depression & her face expressions are adorable. At a party, she would be the life of it.❤
Unlike some OTT reactors, you can see her brain processing what she's watching, & that genuine vibe you get from her is very addictive & I love it.😊
6.20. I loved her doing the "shock horror coughing"😅
She's got the comedy quality.👍
Well said. I too love that Kat isn't just jumping and freaking out; she's THERE, invested in the narrative, thinking about what they're doing and what she'd do. And she gets drawn so deeply in, her lack of self-consciousness is wonderful.
Also, whoever edits her videos is a genius.
I saw this movie as a child. Ever since I heard that line, "I'm having an old friend for dinner," I think about it every time I hear it in the real world and in movies. It has the perfect vagueness that it's impossible to forget. I love that line.
The film score to this movie is incredible. The final shot of lector disappearing into the crowd is my favorite shot in the film
Howard Shore, best known for the music of the Lord of the Rings trilogy, did the score.
I think that look and realization smile/smirk says everything. I really enjoy your reactions. You have that tiny bit of psychotic and terror combination i love.
Kat has the fastest finger gun on the internet. She never fails to entertain.
The Acting in this one is Absolute PERFECTION!
Where Have you been my whole life? You’re so much fun!
Man, to be able to watch this again for the first time. Kat's lucky.
I agree; a perfect movie. 10/10. I don't think I have ever seen you this engaged and captivated in a reaction before, from start to end. 😀
Now you also know why Jodie Foster headlining True Detective S4 as an officer of the law, is a big thing for my generation. She was absolutely phenomenal in this film.
I wonder if she ever did poorly ever cuz I've loved her in everything I've seen her in. Bet she is great even if it's a bad movie.
Don’t accept his weird towel lol Great reactions Kat. Just found your channel 👍
Fantastic reaction. You were hanging onto every frame and it felt like watching this brilliant movie for the first time again. Liked and subbed.
PS I really hope you watch the sequel Hannibal! Jodie Foster isn't the lead anymore but Julianne Moore takes the role of Clarice and she does a wonderful job. They still cast Anthony Hopkins as Hannibal and he's just as brilliant in the sequel as he is in Silence of the Lambs.
One of my top 3 favorite movies. I don't know if it's a horror film as much as a psychological thriller. All of the Hannibal books and movies are excellent!
