I was wondering if you have considered doing a video on Hannibal and will graham from the tv series. That would be a good one as well.
What’s really unsettling is that he is waiting for her. He’s not caught off guard. He’s not scrambling for answers or anything. He is in complete control. The camera angles that make him appear taller than Clarice also drive in that fact. And then he stares at her. Rather he stares at us. Breaking that ever so sacred 4th wall
i found that as well
And control of the scene is illustrated visually in the amount of the screen the character takes up. The "no, you ate yours" moment caused the camera to pull back from Lecter as they jockeyed for position.
I love that he adopts her accent. It’s such a power move.
And identifying prey based on scent is SUUUCH a predatory thing to do.
Ugh. Hopkins was so good in this role.
Edit: It’s fascinating that Lecter is both a psychiatrist and a cannibal. He feeds on his victims both literally and psychologically.
Edit edit: Even though she’s still a trainee, Lecter calls her “Agent.” Love that.
Yes such a move of control also
Supposedly Anthony Hopkins did that without direction, rather flustering Jodie Foster. I'm not sure it's true, but it's still interesting.
Anthony Hopkins won the academy award for Best Actor playing an evil character for only 16 min of screen time in a movie…..legend
I had a very different interpretation of the final scene. You desribed it as Lecter perhaps taking a protective role over Starling, but I don't think that's what's happening.
In the moment, Clarice has just experienced two very upsetting events in quick succession: dismissal by Lecter and being assaulted by Miggs. She's at her absolute most vulnerable at this point, and what does Lecter do? He shouts for her to come back, and extends for her an unexpected olive branch.
He's not trying to protect her; he's taking advantage of her emotional state to set himself up as someone she can trust. He offers his help. He uses his raised voice to cut through the chaos of the moment and provide her some direction, and she obeys.
I do agree that part of this is sincere. Lecter abhors rude people, and what Miggs did clearly violated his sense of propriety to the point where he later kills him, but it's hard for me to look at this situation and not see Lecter being supremely manipulative.
Great video. Loved the analysis.
thank you for that wonderful assessment
This is a very good take on the situation and it seems likely this may have been what he set out to do, but as the book/movie and even series continues, he does fall into that protective role. With Lector, you will always be guessing :P
I think it's both. He respects Clarice and so he wants to manipulate and control her. She is worthy of his 'attention.'
Interesting.
I love that technically he did the same thing as Miggs, smelled her intrusively and got off on what info he got then degraded her. He just did it "politely".
I think the reason Dr. Lector calls Clarice back after their failed dialogue has been revealed in your own argument: He viewed Clarice as his "guest". Hannibal is all about culture, manners and courtesy. That's his charm. He sees himself as the apex predator among the other predators - and such could not tolerate having someone he dismissed attacked, insulted or harmed. She was HIS charge, and such rude conduct could not be tolerated. So, in that moment, he's the mob boss. He's the samurai lord. He's the dragon. This is his domain, and there are rules - and woe betide those who insult or break his trust. Thus went Miggs. Thus went Dr. Chilton. Thus went Krendler.
you forgot mason verger, and sergeant pembury
Indeed.
My favourite part is his line starting "No, no, you were doing fine..."
He dissects her conversation, shows that he understands exactly the techniques and conversational traps she was using, and shows them to have been ineffective.
Were Starling a less perceptive person, she must have been feeling quite good up until this point - she's successfully used the tools she has been given as a trainee, and Hannibal The Cannibal was even opening up to her!
Hannibal brutally tears away any illusion she might have had that she was doing well, and shows her manipulations for the clumsy beginner's moves they were.
That she can recover from this is testament to Starling's strong will and psychological fortitude.
I feel there's almost a playful sense to this: "I see what moves you were making, didn't work but nice try" but there's also the almost unspoken encouragement to try harder, a "hit me with your best shot"
Interesting.
"He said 'I can smell your'..." "Self-disclosure"
That's one heck of an edit!
I opened my subscription feed and went, "four different channels made videos with the same title? That's one hell of a coincidence."
i bet = )
Dr. Lechter has been one of my favorite villains since I first saw this in high school. He wasn't a twirling mustache, or a Darth Vader. He was a refined, dignified, maniac, aka an everyday person.
One thing that no one seems to pick up on is that Lecter tells Clarice the answer to her question even before its asked. Buffalo Bill is in Belvedere, Ohio and he emphasized that the angle of his drawing was from the belvedere. Most of his sketches we see later are of belvederes.
Really enjoyed this assessment. Should be mentioned that Dr. Lecter's compassion and interest in Clarice likely stems from his relationship with his little sister, which is explained thoroughly in the 'Hannibal' novel. So much of who he is is exceptional..and yet so much of his direction is guided by a very NORMAL quality we all share...our vulnerability to being shaped by TRAUMA. He also enjoys being in command, because it makes him feel less vulnerable, which is his true obsession. I believe this to be the true reason he goes after Miggs. Miggs' actions upset his control of the situation..and reminds him of his inability to protect Clarice, same as he could not protect his sister. Being in command, in his mind, allows him a sense of control of his reality..enabling him to prevent and even undo his traumatic experiences..possibly even the loss of his sister. He is a monster.. and yet, so human... Thank you for such a great video.
Thomas Harris is my Favorite novelist.
Loved this analysis. Thank you for sharing.
Thought about your question as to why Lecter helps Clarice: Here's a quote from the movies sequel 'Hannibal' from Mason Verger: "... to make [Clarice] attractive to [Lecter] let him see her distressed. Let the damage he sees, suggest the damage he could do."
He sees her in distress, and suddenly she's more attractive and interesting to him which leads to their 'relationship'.
In their first conversation Clarice talks about things that COULD be distressing, but she doesn't get distressed. Lecter sends her away. Then Miggs throws his *ehem* at her, that is distressing and Lecter helps her.
Later at the makeshift gym prison, he refuses to tell her anything and she opens up about the spring lambs, she is visibly distressed from that memory, and he both helps her and thanks her as she is being dragged away.
thanks for this
"When the rabbit cries out in pain, the fox comes running... but not to help."
Miggs' assault was a direct personal attack on Dr Lecter's control of the situation. He had been insulted and dismissed her, but he wasn't taking the person he just chastised and throwing her to the wolves. It wasn't Miggs' kill, and the assault was like defecating on the chess board he was using to toy with Starling.
Indeed.
Also, getting her to come closer to show him her credentials tests whether she's willing to "break the rules." He surely knows that nobody is supposed to approach the glass, and he tests her willingness to do that.
I love your analysis of Lecter.
He’s such an interesting character. I am really impressed by how Hopkins’s acting, Demme’s directing, and Harris’s writing all came together to make such a terrifying villain. The thing that scares me most is, like many psychopaths, he seems calm, nice, and almost attractive at first…until it’s too late and you realize the true horror that gazes upon your face.
This is the first video of yours that I have ever seen. It’s really well done! I am subscribing.
yay thanks
my dog does the long blink thing too. I always return it and she proceeds to nuzzle me.... she's such a sweet dog. i hate that she has cancer.
so sorry I hope she pulls through
What always fascinated me about these types of analysis videos is that we are talking about people pretending to be someone else and, on top of that, saying things that were written by people that they may not have ever met. The ability of good actors (and/or their directors) to take on a role and make it so believable such that psychologists can dissect them in videos like yours is truly mind-boggling.
I've always found it funny that he claims he can't smell her.... yep. But then proceeds to tell her exactly what skin cream she uses and so on. It adds an extra layer to how unsettling it is.
Hot take- giving someone something after denying them that thing makes them feel disproportionately grateful and puts you in a position of power. Clarice was just dressed down, toyed with, threatened and dismissed like a disappointing student only to have what amounts to a second chance or a consolation prize.
Imo lecter is in for a long game here and wants her to come back, even if its just to alleviate his boredom. If he completely crushed her she wouldnt want too- this way he firmly places himself in a position of power and stakes setting and gives her enough to make her want to come back. (This is also with the books and other movies in mind where he does have a distinct predatory fascination with clarice)
Also... Would anyone else love a take on the Harley Quinn origin story with this vibe? I can see it.
I can be completely wrong... But I think that last part is more than just a singular thing. Yes, it's about the disrespect she just received. And Dr. Lector is a high class gentlemen first and foremost. Even beyond being an elite psychologist. But I also think a kennel of respect had been formed and seeing her completely vulnerable did engage a protective instinct. Like a weird version of "I can pick on my siblings, but no one else can". But more of a she's my guest and my toy to manipulate. How dare you disrespect her in my presence. And to compensate, threw her the bone and kills Miggs for his transgression
I love this scene, and this was a fantastic read of it.
I am surprised you didn't mention gender, which is a huge part of the scene in general, and specifically with Miggs. Miggs' line is an attempt to reduce her to the most objectified and socially stigmatized aspect of her womanhood, and comes with a threat of sexual violence. Lecter knows Miggs, so when he asks Starling what Miggs said, he knows it's probably something misogynistic. The expectation is that a woman would be ashamed to say the word, humbled by being objectified, and afraid of the threat - that's what Miggs wants - placing her into the role as prey. But in a spectacular delivery by Jodie Foster, we see Starling firmly reject that role, summoning all her strength to repeat Miggs' line as matter-of-factly as she possibly can. She's saying "yes, Miggs went after my gendered vulnerability, and no I will absolutely not be vulnerable."
So that gives me a different reading of Lecters' "I myself, cannot". Starling has impressed him, has proven herself above Miggs' crude mindgame. And immediately, he's affirmating her decision, he's saying "agreed, I will not mention your genitals". Lecter is among the very few male characters who does not try to treat Starling as a sex object at any point in the movie, and that's established here.
He responds in two ways at once. First, as you say, he now launches his attack via an impressive psychological read - he leans in, he grins, he flexes his power. She's proven herself a challenge worth pursuing, a prey maybe worthy of him.
Second, she nows has his respect which is his most important currancy. I read "I myself cannot" as, in a way, generous. It is reassuring - by then demonstrating his olfactory prowess he's saying "don't worry, if there was anything to smell, I would have done so". I like to think this is when he decides Miggs will die - he's demonstrating his respect for Starling by avenging her. Had Starling failed the "what did Miggs say to you" test, he wouldn't have called her back at the end, wouldn't have offered, as you say, protection in the face of Miggs' discourtesy.
Great video, thanks!
Interesting.
"Sit down." It was stated as an offer, but more power-play. The entire scene is power-play, and beautifully filmed. In cinema, you're not supposed to look at the camera, it's "The fourth Wall," but in that basement, he only has 3 walls. From the moment Barney lets her in, she's trapped. She has this obligation, this willingness to succeed, and please Jack Crawford. Dr. Chilton's slimyness, Miggs being Miggs. All of these are set up to make her feel trapped in here, with them. The last friendly face she'd seen was Barney's. "Closer... Closer?" As it switches back, and forth, Hannibal is looking down, and Clarice is looking up. The camera zooms in with each cut. Face to face, until there's nothing but his eyes, and mouth. 5:55. A lot has been said about how he manipulated her, but this scene is hypnotic to the Audience. We get sucked in, the only friendly face in this house of horrors is HIM. Hannibal. The forced intimacy, we're put through that, too. The exposition written in here by Thomas Harris is great too but somebody should point out how this scene is shot.
His posture at the beginning, and the end are both part of his institutionalization. He's standing in the center of the cell at attention. Then, when he dismisses her, he turns around with his hands behind his back. These are subtle clues that he is a prisoner there, and is suffering some Institutionalization. Also a reminder for the audience, before and after you're made to feel trapped in there with him. 13:16. There's even a bar right over the offset subject to drive that point home.
I've seen a few of there "One Villainous Scene", but this one is just great.
Your analysis of the scene shows cinema viewers an excellent example of how a scene should naturally flow, and how a movie's "show don't tell" should be done.
When I was young, I thought about joining the fbi and mom (being a worried mom) wasn’t too into that. She showed me this all casual to try and subtlety put me off the idea, and after this scene, I was so excited and fascinated by their power play, and mom was very surprised lol
I like how just a bit of psychology goes into my profession in sales.
Masking another's level of accent (I work close to Atlanta, while in Atlanta I tend to mask my accent, when doing business with someone from south Georgia I relax a little and then on par to how they speak) also mimicking another's body language in the first few seconds of us sitting down tends to break down the first set of barriers that are up when meeting with someone new.
Also when they go into detail of how they are unhappy with who they are using, I lean forward, look intently and just listen while taking notes. Even if what they have to say I really don't care about, it allows them to open up more.
This may sound like manipulation, but I genuinely do care about my customers and see how to fix any issues they are having.
I really loved your breakdown. Really helped me notice the little details, hope I can apply this to future scene dissections.
he was protecting her..he is honorable, a monster but honorable
If you haven’t already, I would suggest watching or even reacting to The Vile Eye’s analysis of Hannibal Lector as a villain, it’s an amazing video and well worth the time.
I believe he recognized himself in her. The two of them are very much alike (especially in the books, if I recall correctly). He is grooming her as both a predatory act and as an affectionate one. His trauma (again, going to the books) is what created his drive just like her trauma created hers.
Nice I have not read the books
Great one!
Isn't Lector also showing that he's in control from the start, by standing a couple of steps away from the physical barrier? That gives the illusion of him being in control, because he can move in any direction.
If he had started closer to a wall even leaning or touching the "plexiglassswall" it would have been much more evident that he was confined and limited how he could move. Someone else was controlling him, giving him boundaries he was allowed to move within.
I’ve seen a lot of video essays about this movie and this scene. But this one is one of the very best I’ve seen. Well done!!!
Thank you so much !
OMG!!!
Thank you Christina !! means a lot that you liked it
This needs more views...very cool
2:26 In the TV series Hannibal pretended to be Jack's friend while secretly messing with his head.
I was positively brutalized by the fact that you blinked 12 times in the sentence when you called attention to the manner of blinking having relevance 😅
beautifully topical but good heavens did it mess with my head through the rest of the video.
I think Lecter’s portrayal had many ways an actor could’ve ’failed’ and made it too cheesy and over the top, but it’s really Hopkins’ acting that makes this character so great and memorable and horrifyingly realistic.
I love how he breathes in air instead of suffocating!
I really enjoyed this breakdown, I would enjoy if you let the clips flow a bit more before offering in depth analysis via going back. I also liked how you broke down not only Hannibal but also the process of what constitutes an effective counselling session.
14:37 The person who can answer your question is Mr. Thomas Harris.
I enjoyed your analysis and insight into this film which I greatly enjoyed watching at the film’s original release. Blessings on your day.
many blessings thx
The volume of the movie was too low. Had to change volume constantly
Yeah... You got a subscriber
thanks !
wow. this is such a terrific analysis. you should do vids on lisbeth salander, john kramer (aka jigsaw), and buffy at some point. 🙃
Oh man, you could do a whole series on Hannibal!
The tv show "Hannibal" also have greats scenes that you could like, great video. 🇧🇷
Brilliant character analysis as always, Georgia Dow. SUCH insights into the human experience. You should carry a recorder with you, and you could write a book and have it finished sooner than you think. Speaking of gray pieces, it reminds me of that song from "Pirates of Penzance", A Policeman's Lot - quote: "WHEN A FELON'S NOT ENGAGED IN HIS EMPLOYMENT (his employment) OR MATURING HIS FELONIOUS LITTLE PLANS (little plans) HIS CAPACITY FOR INNOCENT ENJOYMENT (-cent enjoyment) IS JUST AS GREAT AS ANY HONEST MAN'S (honest mans)" Close quote. (I was actually a "pirate" in that one =) Thus, I think you are correct about him wanting to protect Clarice. Have you seen the TV series? The Clarice character...in the season finale...without a gun herself...vulnerable and seemingly defenseless...talks one demented bad guy into killing another, and then talks him into killing himself.
thanks
8:55 In the book when Clarice asks Lecter why he's the way he is he says "Nothing happened to me Officer Starling. I happened. You can't reduce me to a set of influences." Basically saying he was born like that and chooses to be that way.
The prequel book shows he was lying.
A psychotherapist analyzing Dr. Lecter on youtube? I'm sure he'd find you... delicious.
Hannibal and Darth Maul excel at the art of intimidation.
holy crap someone in the series who actually did one scene of a great movie. lol
Love it. Love the channel.
Did you dress like Clarice to see if we'd notice? :-)
YES =) happy someone noticed
Hi Georgia I really like your videos and just wanted to ask if you would make a video about the film "Joker". I just think it's a interesting film with the way it deals with depression and all kind of emotions.
Anyway keep going your content is great.
(Sorry for my poor choice of words I'm from Germany so English is not my mother language)
thanks i hope you like my other videos also
Video suggestion that I would definitely watch: a comparison between this Hannibal relationship with Clarice vs NBC Hannibal relationship with Will Graham! I think it would be super awesome to try to analyse the two!
You should react to eternal sunshine of the spotless mind, its a really great movie and explores the mind, would love to see your video on it
What I like and I think is kind of surprising is the next time Clarice comes back, you find out that multiple maggs is dead, most likely manipulated by Hannibal into committing suicide.
Wow you couldn't be more wrong about the introduction of Hannibal lecter it's actually more intimidating that hes just standing there in the middle of a cell all quiet like he can smell her coming down the hall
yes that is true also
The tradition of hospitality is extremely important to our psyche; see the disrespect to the Freys in GoT/ASoFaI. To reassert some control of the situation where Lector could not stop the assault of a guest who was given the right, he was forced to offer compensation. It is a way to regain the feeling of being dominate and civilized.
I would love to see your analysis of Mads Mikkaelson’s take on Hannibal
He looks human enough on the outside but his mind is as inhuman as it gets. I think that`s what gets so many people killed is they see how human and cultured he can act on the outside and they don`t realize what a inhuman monster he is on the inside.
Are you a fan of Westworld? I'd like to hear your thoughts on some of the scenes Anthony Hopkins does as Dr Ford.
Dr Lecter was already in top of the food chain. But if he could somehow transform a weak little bird into an Apex Predator, that would be a miracle - and Only God can perform miracles.
You should do one for dexter morgan from dexter
You missed something very important that to be honest Everyone misses
"I ate his liver with a side of fava beans and a nice chianti"
At the time the book was written, patients like hannibal lector were given a very specific type of medicine, and its mentioned in the film
There are 3 things you cannot have on those meds, as 2 will make it not work, and 1 can kill you
Those three things are liver, fava beans, and alcohol
Hes Not telling her a story of the last person who tried to test him
Hes telling her hes off his meds.
Also the painting- forgive my spelling "the view of the duomo from the belvedere" (idk how to spell it) is him telling here where Buffalo Bill lives
He lives in a city named Belvedere
Lector might have some paternal feelings for Clarice. He may have sensed her fear and lack of confidence and wanted to help her. In later scenes he bargains with Clarice. He had probably made plans for his escape and was just waiting for the right opportunity
It would be interesting to see your take on Dr. Lecter from the TV show Hannibal from back in 2015. It's interesting to see him and Will Graham manipulating each other and the way their feelings for each other seem to so strongly encompass both love and hate at the same time.
I really like to see someone like GERALT (The Witcher) go after Dr. Lecter.
Of course he was being protective. Did you miss the part where the guard mentions to her on Starling's return, he says that Lecter spent hours talking to Multiple Migs that night? By morning Migs had chewed off his own tongue and intentionally choked on it!!! That's borderline angry boyfriend activity.
Can you please look at Gone Girl and/or Promising Young Woman? It would be great to get your take on how film handles female rage!
5:20 Hannibal doesn’t offer her to sit … he actually commands her to sit
Showing Clarice that he is the one in control of her. (Really subtle detail but the way he says sit is not in a offering tone but in a commanding one)
I love this series. I wish someone would be a Sensui from Yuyu hakusho in the chapter black arch. Btw the villain have split personalty disorder.
Hey I have a question can you do a video like this on a video called “ Wilbur soot’s ARG”?
I dont care if its a 3h long video, I have the need to see you comment this whole movie 😂
After scrolling through he playlist I was getting bored with comic book villains. And then there was this video. It's a great scene. Hopkins won the Oscar probably for this scene alone. And this video breaks down why. Looking at all the little subtle things like Lector does as if he was a real person. Which is what make the performance so good. Those were (mostly) choices by Hopkins.
I'm actually going to put this on my re-watch list cause I don't know when the last time I watched this movie was. I remember seeing it at the theater as a teenager, cause I worked there and got away with that. Maybe on cable once or twice since then?
It also highlights something I've begun to recognize about "great acting" which is the performers understanding of the subtle non-verbal communication that isn't obvious unless you're paying real attention to it. And that is skill by an actor to portray that.
Why is Clarice psycho-analyzing her past case???
Oh thats just Georgia Dow, Oops. My bad.
Hilarious ! thanks for the compliment
@@GeorgiaDow Likewise! Your insight is a breath of fresh air!!
I've always been curious what would happen if Hannibal met someone psychologically similar to him. Would they team up, or be threatened by each other. My guess is they would be fascinated by each other.
If you haven't read the books, in Hannibal(1999) [SPOILER]
Dr. Lector spends the last act of the book manipulating Clarice with drugs and psychology for so long, Clarice falls in love with Dr. Lector. It's like the most aggressive form of Stockholm Syndrome that you'll ever see in fiction.
In just two books! I really enjoy their dark/twisted relationship.
Can you do episode 4 of Sandman
Georgia Dow could you react to the scene where clarice tells Hannibal about her childhood. It’s the one where clarice tells him about the lambs screaming could u please react and analyze that scene that is one of my favorite scenes in the whole movie.
Silence of the lambs is my favorite romantic comedy.
ha
@@GeorgiaDow uh hello there
I wonder if the character of Doctor Lector really wants to see Clarisse advance and triumph over her fears and doubts... something of a flashback to being a practicing therapist? It appears in direct conflict with his other persona of Hannibal the Cannibal who, as you so aptly applied, is playing with his food.
What, if I may ask, is it like to experience this character as a mental health professional? Is there a dark and manipulative corner of the mind which understands the why and how of human thoughts that is a little bit perversely pleased to be able to say 'yes, I can do that, if I want to?'
Can you react to Iron man 3 or Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind next? Would love to see your reaction, loving the video 👍
Why do I get shades of Apt Pupil from this one? I think what you might be sensing is a more teacher/student sort of dynamic, possibly even paternal in a sense. Granted, the professor is an evil git, but that's beside the point. And if we're being brutally honest, taking a class given by this professor would be decidedly interesting, the threat of cannibalization not withstanding. He's not lording over her, but more leaving a trail of breadcrumbs, coaxing her towards his "truth". That's most of their interactions, Starling playing catch-up, trailing behind Lecter. Then again, if you're sane, it makes understanding insanity difficult by definition. That and the vibe I get from Agent Starling is that she's making a deal with the devil and she knows it.
Dear Georgia, maybe you can elaborate on the therapy sessions between Dr. Hannibal Lecter and Will Graham in the "Hannibal"-TV show (2013-2015)? Portayed by Mads Mikkelsen (Lecter) and Hugh Dancy (Graham) they play a very interesting cat and mouse game, where one wants the other to commit a crime and become a serial killer or admit and confess that he is a serial killer.
The cosplay was as good as the commentary.
haha yay
You described the standing as a good thing, but I think the movie setup made me feel it was creepy because I only felt unsettled by the character.
"Dr. Hannibal Lecter" is simply one of the best: He knows it's ALL 13ull-💩; and, he treats it as that.
Even though he does not care about actual morals, there is an exception to courtesy, dr. Hannibal lecter dispises people not being polite and that anger and hate comes back at him when he feels that he did something not polite, actually maybe even to the point where there is 5% empathy towards people who has been victims of extreme disrespect in terms of politeness only like this scene where he removed his emotionless feature and put her feelings putting himself in her place, and felt that she had been greatly offended in terms similar in damage to terms when his ego gets offended...
Well I think courtesy made him feel perceived less in uncanny valley. Nobody would like to experience that.
@@finezyjnafantazja2495 You mean lack of courtesy made him feel that way?
@@HassanAhmed-mu1bu Well I do not know book or film but psychopaths are very impatient and impulsive people. So for sure as a kid he suffered rejection from not being curteous and in control of his anger.
@@finezyjnafantazja2495 not necessarily, he has an overwhelming ego, it is supposed to be his reason for killing actual, or part of it, so when someone does not do him courtesy therefore hurting his ego he gets mad.
Professor Hugo Strange comes to mind here. Do check him out in Arkham City! :)
I say it's mostly for taking advantage of her vulnerability and his own code of manners and etiquette, although I have heard that Hannibal has a bit of a soft spot for Clarice, but this could also be wishful thinking of shippers.
Can you do StarWars? Especially for Anakin's fall?
The reason he was standing was because the actor said he knew Clarice was coming. When the director asked how hannibal knew, the actor says “I can smell her.” (Mind is blanking on the actors name, sorry)
I think Hannibal gave Clarice another chance because he felt the humiliation over the top way more than Clarice felt. Lets remember Hannibal always felt bothered by the smallest of details, a person playing badly an instrument or a man with bad manners. Those where the keys to make him uncomfortable...
Hannibal Lecter will not leave my head...
He set up a nice cottage, and the whole area is always pretty clean, so I cannot complain much

The Silence Of The Lamb Movie;

As a responsible gentleman myself with no criminal record and also I am both mentally & physically stable which makes me so glad that I am a normal human being who has self-control & self-discipline which all humans must have around the world. There are some humans in this world that includes boys, girls, men and women who behave like monsters & they are most likely mentally ill which makes them extremely dangerous. Psychopathy is the most dangerous disorder ever because these types of human beings are very charming, deceitful, emotionless, intelligent and violent which makes them very terrifying because when you talk to psychopaths they seem so normal in public but in private they are very cruel so be very cautious with those types of people in this world. This is the reason why we human beings need to take mental illness very seriously before it is too late or else it could lead to so many innocent animals, innocent boys, innocent girls, innocent men and innocent women who would be murdered for no reason.

I always thought the reason Hannibal called Clarice back were as complex as the character himself. I think on one hand it was a matter of her being disrespected and Hannibal is a refined man who believes in the niceties to a point. Clarice was his guest and was to be treated with respect while she was in his "home." I think also it has to do with Hannibal enjoying playing with his food. He isn't just a predator but one like a cat who enjoys watching his food run about before eating it. He saw the chance to play with someone new who wasn't wise to his manipulations. And lastly, I think it was also a way for Hannibal to prove his superiority to Migs. Hannibal may have made Clarice uneasy displaying his keen sense of smell and threatened her in subtle ways but he didn't sexually assault her because in his mind that kind of behavior is beneath him as a refined individual. Migs sexually assaulting Clarice made Hannibal want to show her, and the other inmates, that he was better than they were.
Have you seen the tv show Hannibal? It really goes deeper into his psychology and how manipulative he his. He gets off on inviting people to dinner parties and serving them exotic meats.
Georgia I loved your video. My take on your question is this: A woman standing up for the task, back in those days, would have been at least entertaning for him. Then there is the quastion of villains. I am just guessing here but a guy like him wouldn't ever think of himself as neither Heroe or a villain, those titles are beneath him. There are only humans and history and laws. That being said, I think he just liked her. Like professors have their favorite studensts and parents have their favorite sons. And it didn't hurt either that she was gorgeous. Let's forget psychology for a second and remember that we are animals. Like you said, we work better in a group and all his knowledge can't surpass our genetics. By the way, hahhahaa I am digressing. He called her back because he liked her. But, my guess is: he liked the way she saw justice in the world. He did the same, whatever the courts said and she was interesting. A guy that smart must be really bored with the world. So when a human being acts like an animal he is disgusted with it and therefore its nothing more but an animal. no more than cattle to be consumed. And she is not. In his mind, she's worth it. She is a real human being.
Nice color commentary on this battle of wills. The Joe Rogan of PJJ (Physiological jiu-jitsu)! ... I do think that he likely sized Clarise up right at the beginning and then looked for confirmation or not to his thoughts as the conversation develops. The insults he throws at her later were not likely off the cuff. Only reason to mention this as it isn't a novel observation but interesting watching the clip again keeping in mind his thoughts about her already mostly formed as revealed later heightens how much a game he is playing. On a related people watching perspective this video of this women being questioned in court is wildly interesting.
