Revision as of 04:13, 1 March 2010
The Silence of the Lambs is the 1991 thriller that introduced the world to Anthony Hopkins' chilling protrayal of Dr. Hannibal Lecter. In the film, FBI recruit Clarice Starling (Jodie Foster) enlists Lecter's help in order to track down a notorious serial killer and rescue a Senator's daughter. Based on the novel by Thomas Harris, the film would win the Academy Award for Best Picture as well as acting wins for both Hopkins and Foster. Hopkins would reprise his role as Lecter in two more films: Hannibal (2001) and Red Dragon (2002).
