Having an old friend for dinner is one of the best lines of the movie..
"That sounds like something Miggs would say".
"Not any more". 😁
One of the best lines of any movie.
It rubs the lotion on it's skin or else it gets the hose again!
So good...,with bäd Chianti....
Oh for sure, especially how by then they have you a good bit of rooting for him getting Chilton whose such a slime ball.
"Hopefully, I'm not going to get scared...."
Oh, sweet summer child.
NEVER see night-vision goggles the same again...
😶
My response was, oh poor Dasha
Scared, disturbed, and possibly *scarred.*
Anthony Hopkins performance as Dr. Lecter is unbelievable. One of the greatest acting performances there has ever been.
His role was ranked #1 on AFI's 100 heroes and villains.
@@BillyButcher90 In what... 16 minutes of screen time? We hardly see him but he's one of the most memorable characters in film history.
Yes he carried foster in this movie I found her performance boring
Anthony Quinn's oscar-winning performance for Lust for Life was shorter than Hopkins'.
It's his eyes. Pale, pale eyes.
Imagine seeing this in the theaters and as the movie ends and the lights come on, a man sitting behind you leans forward and says in Lechter's voice, "Did you enjoy the film?" --- Sir Anthony Hopkins used to sneak into showings and sit behind people and do that.
@David r I never knew that! 😳😳 How creepy! 🤣🤣👏🏼👏🏼👌🏼
That's amazing, and even though it would scare the hell out of me, it would be awesome.
He didn't..
I call BS man unless you can share a link?
@@mash83he did he said it in a interview
32:28 "Nothing good ever happened in a basement".
Our girl Dasha dropping some straight facts here.
so wrong... a lot of good happened in my last basement...
Such a great line! 😂👍
Dasha calling Hannibal a gentleman compared to the other inmates makes me think of when Clarice said that Hannibal wouldn't come after her because "He would consider it impolite."
Speaking of the other inmates, I like that one of them is listed as "Friendly Psychopath" in the closing credits.
Was that the one who threw semen?
Dasha is so insightful and perceptive for someone so young, even within a broad cultural divide she picks up on so much detail and nuance regarding the characters and the actor's portrayals of them, as well as suble themes like the astheticsim or poetry of the display staged by Hannibal during his escape
I was thinking the same thing. Do you know her background? I'm guessing that she's an overachiever.
I don't know anything but I get the impression that she just jumped into this youtube thing without much experience and started banging out some awesome videos
Right?!?!?
I agree. I'm surprised she can describe the film so clearly, considering that English is her second language
32:02 Jodie Foster is supposed to call back up first but the priority is not to catch him but retrieve the girl, she goes after him thinking he is going to kill the captive.
The screaming of the lambs scene is so intense.. The extreme closeups for both actors, who are both legends, giving their best performances.. And like you, everyone instantly understands the title and reasons Clarice is who she is.. And why she’ll never stop..
One of the reasons I love your reactions is that you always manage to say something that is unintentionally hilarious! This time it was "I'm not sure if the word "karma" applies here"... perfect!
Dasha I am really impressed with how observant you are. You notice things most people don't notice when watching movies. You're very intelligent.
FUN FACT: When Ted Levine got the role for Buffalo Bill, Brooke Smith who played Catherine (his victim) asked him what he did to prepare for his audition. Ted said, "I just drank a lot of coffee." :)
Another FUN FACT: Ted Levine was a long time company member with The Remains Theatre Ensemble of Chicago. He also worked with Chicago’s renowned Steppenwolf Theatre Company.
"I'm so excited, I'm so excited, I'm so..scared!" I mean it worked on saved by the bell.
Another FUN FACT: Ted Levine and Brooke Smith were the best of friends on set, with Ted always looking out for Brooke's welfare. He knew the Catherine Martin role was psychologically taxing, claustrophobic and exhausting, and made it as easy as possible on Brooke by laughing and joking with her on the set. Ted's not just a great actor, he's a good person. And as far as I know, he and Brooke are still good friends.
"This movie is going to be super intense."
Dasha, no lie.
"Okay, he's so calm, it actually makes me nervous." That's the idea, sweetie. Mission accomplished.
Anthony Hopkins only has around 20 mins of screentime but he won an Oscar for it. If that doesn't tell you how great he is at acting nothing will.
Edit: If you want to check out iconic horror movie then I'd suggest The Exorcist. That one is the grandfather of all horror movies and what other horror movies try to do in that genre.
The over-arching sense you are coming away with is pure terror and suspense, but dear lord, you've got to admit that those performances by Anthony Hopkins and Jodie Foster were otherworldly. Jonathan Demme deserves some credit for what he was able to pull together as well. I've read the Thomas Harris trilogy and Demme nailed it!
Agree about Jonathan Demme, but hey, come on, he DID get more than "some" credit, including winning the Best Director Oscar for this film. This is one of only three movies to ever win "the Big 5" Academy Awards: Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Actress, and Best Adapted Screenplay. This is also the only "horror" movie to ever win Best Picture, So Demme DOES deserve some credit, but also I'd say he got it.
The other two movies to take the top 5 Oscars? "It Happened One Night" from 1934, and "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" from 1975. I haven't seen "It Happened One Night" in so long I can barely remember if I liked it or not. But "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" is a contemporary classic, and still relevant today. Nominally it's about people locked up in a psych ward, but it's true meaning is man versus man, with the antagonist taking the form of oppressive institutionalization. It's about holding on to your individual worth and values, even in the face of those who would suggest your individuality is a problem.
28:21 Thank you for pointing that out! Clarice has a GREAT intuition & always looks deeper into things (deciphering the storage unit anagram, noticing the moth, etc).
Another excellent psychological thriller is based on a true story called "Citizen-X," about a serial killer in the Soviet Union, where a single detective tried to find a killer of more than 50 women and children, between 1978 and 1990. In what was then the USSR, the investigation was opposed by bureaucracy, incompetence and those in power, who insisted that the USSR could not have serial killers. In some ways, it's similar to this movie, but it has more to do with how this single detective eventually gained the respect of the police he worked with and how he worked with a psychiatrist to help find the murderer. It looks like it's available on RUclips if you would like to see it. It's a very well done movie. The story is based on the capture of the mass-murderer Andrei Chikatilo - Андрій Романович Чикатило.
He was also protected because he was a member of the Communist Party (the killer)
Yeah that was a good one....
Citizen X was amazing.
Chikatilo WAS captured early in his reign of terror, but was let go because of the evidence. It turns out that he was one of the ridiculously rare men whose semen doesn't conform to his blood type. So they had him, but let him go because he didn't match the evidence.
Great movie. His sentence at the end is one of the most satisfying finales ever.
Dasha your reactions are always great. You're very emotionally intuned with the characters and your observations are spot on. Watching your reactions is like watching a movie with a friend. Makes me feel less alone. Keep up the good work!
"Or... heh heh, anything else" I love Clarice's little laugh. Jodie Foster is fantastic in this role (as she is in most of her work).
Check her out in Maverick, with Mel Gibson, for a great comedic western.
I found her to be overrated unless she is supposed to be an over confident feminist with zero common sense then she was perfect
She is great and that film is great. She was also a true friend that stood by Mel when everyone else was trashing him.
@@HulkCrow film was great because of Hannibal Lecter else it was a bore. Any two bit actress can play the part of Clarisse.
@@gdiaz8827 Well that's certainly an opinion. But since Lecter is barely in the film, no, the actress is extremely important and Jodie Foster is an amazing actress.
You don't like her. That's fine. There are really good actors I don't like either.
.
Mostly though I was commenting to the OTHER gentleman and I was commenting on Maverick which, as he said, was great and she was great in.
There is a prequel film called Red Dragon. The main character is the man who caught Hannibal.
There is an earlier prequel to silence of the lambs filmed before it in the eighties. Called manhunter
Manhunter made in 1986 is adapted from the book red dragon and features william Peterson (CSI vegas) Brian cox (x Men 2) Joan Allen, Kim feist, Tom Noonan and avatars star Stephen lang
And the series, which unfortunately didn't get to finish and ended on a cliffhanger (almost literally) was epic because of the two leads. Mads Mikkelsen absolutely gives Anthony Hopkins a run for his money in terms of playing Hannibal, and Hugh Dancy is a far, far better Will Graham than either of the big screen portrayals.
One of my fav things about reactionists are how they deal with surprise twists in movies. Your reaction...epic!
Hey Dasha, Martha Stewart was dating Sir Anthony Hopkins at the time the movie came out. His performance was so chilling, that Martha left him soon after seeing the movie.
She thought if he had that in him as an actor that must be buried somewhere in him as a person.
She couldn't see him as anything other than Hannibal. And expected him to eat her liver at any time going forward.
lol
I love information like this, appreciate it.
To think Sir Anthony Hopkins risked his life around that criminal.
When Hannibal asks
What did you see
Clarice
What did you see?
Makes my skin crawl lol
Oh.....the "jack" that Clarise used to open the door at the storage facility was just the unit for changing a tire. Every car has one. You just never saw that type before. 😉
I think she knows it is a jack, and also that in the real world not every car has one...
One of his finest roles is New Zealands only motorcycle world land speed record holder. Bert Munroe in the film the world's fastest Indian. Which refers to the brand of motorcycle he used.
Love that movie. One of the best movies I’ve ever seen.
What a great written and acted out character Hannibal Lecter is.
I think he's 1 of the only serial killer characters I actually sympathize with, so that's saying a lot
the actress playing clarice starling is a lady called Jodie foster who is an actress, producer,writer,director, political activist and author as well as a multiple academy award winner
And pretty much brilliant at all of that.
the relationship building between Clarice and Lecter is SUPERB
And there's so little gore - the suspense, the horror was all psychological. This movie is a masterpiece.
Hopkins is one of these rare talents, that just becomes the caracter. Very amazing to watch his face. In any movie.
Now u see why Anthony Hopkins won the Oscar for this role? Lecter is so unsettling & scary. Yet FABULOUS. He’s terrified a lot of people. Like…a lot. 🙂
This movie is such a masterpiece in so many aspects. There is a lot that is happening in many scenes that the viewer generally is not aware of but creates a distinct reaction. Such as the first time we see Lecter in his cell. Unlike most people, he stands completely straight with hands resting at his side with an expression of calm pleasantness on his face. Not only is this unusual compared to the other inmates, but to most people in general. His posture and demeanor convey almost no body language at all. That is why it's unnerving, because we pick up on visuals subconsciously before a person speaks, but there is almost nothing to read from Lecter minus a polite smile. As a matter of fact, the lack of anything to read in itself sends a powerful message and creates unease in a person. When people write this movie off as a simple "Mystery horror movie" or the like, I feel as though they miss part of the experience in the film. Much like other movies such as The Shining and The Thing.
I had the pleasure of meeting Sir Anthony in the early 1980’s. My father took me to the set of The Bunker where he worked as a technical advisor. Sir Anthony was so genial and polite. He made such a positive impression on me.
I just love your reactions Dasha. Like I've said before, you pick up on things so quickly and easily.
Thank you.
By the way, I love what you said at the end: "Nothing good ever happens in basements!" Lol So true!
wrong... a lot of good happened in my last basement....
Fun fact: Anthony Hopkins' first film was called 'A Lion in Winter,' where he played a young Richard the Lionheart, future king of England. It starred Katherine Hepburn as his mother, Eleanor of Aquitaine. Hannibal Lector is partially a Katherine Hepburn impersonation.
Both Anthony Hopkins (Hannibal) and Jodie Foster (Clarice) received awards for their roles in this film, and rightly so. They were both excellent in this.
The last of the only 3 movies who won all of the big 5 at the Oscars. Film, Actor, Screenplay, Actress and Director.
Ted Levine is such a incredible actor you probably didn't recognize him as Captain Leland Stottlemeyer (Monk), Detective Mike Bosko (HEAT)
Most recently, he was the villain in Big Sky on ABC. He's still got acting chops.
He was also in SHUTTER ISLAND with Leonardo Dicaprio.
Buffalo Bill was inspired by a real serial killer, Ed Gein, who also made a “woman suit.”
Weird fact: Ted Levine (the actor who played Buffalo Bill) had to drink some booze before the infamous "tuck" scene. I can't blame him. He doesn't get enough credit for his role.
well it´s hard.. hopkins did simply made all others a bit pale, even though their acting was really good....
I was curious since you just recently watched Thor if you’d recognize Hannibal Lector was Odin
OMG I didn't even realize that!
@@danielg6566 the brilliance of Anthony Hopkins acting
You are gorgeous
@@leewinstead917 Let not forget Westworld, the two fathers, Dracula, the world's fastest indian.
@@lethaldose2000 Won an Oscar for this (Silence of The Lambs) AND THE FATHER (not the two fathers- lol)
This is the most intense emotional reaction I have seen! 🤣great reaction! From Australia🙏🏾🇦🇺🇷🇺
Anthony Hopkins is a legend.
"Meet Joe Black" and "The Edge" are two really good ones with him also.
This was partly inspired by when the FBI got serial killer Ted Bundy to create a profile for the green river killer, when they caught him Bundys profile was pretty accurate to the man they arrested. The part where Bill struggles with the couch to get her to help him was also inspired Ted Bundy who would pretend to have a broken arm and struggle to get something in his car to get the woman he wanted to help him and he would hit her over the head and push her into his car.
Bill didn’t have surgery he just tucked his genitals behind , it’s similar to what drag queens do so there isn’t a bulge when they wear tight outfits.
Dasha, loved your casual comment about Agent Starling "...she has balls." LOL, love your comments!
This movie is so great! Of course the first time I watched it I was mostly just caught up in the story but each time I re-watch or watch someone's reaction I notice new things. It's one of those movies that continually rewards repeat viewings.
Hey Dasha. The Character of Hannibal was partially based on a Doctor in Mexico during the '50s who ate body parts of his patients after he murdered them. But there are also parts of other serial killers woven into the compilation of the Hannibal character.
And Buffalo Bill was a combo of five different serial killers. The main one was Ed Gein.
@@Fmanzo10 Awesome info. Thanks
This is one of the greatest movies ever made. It’s going to be the bar by which you measure every other dramatic film.
I saw this movie in the theater when I was about 22 yrs old. Those were the days before there was a channel on TV that was entirely devoted to murder. I was absolutely freaked out for several days.
One channel? There are at least 4 channels on basic cable that are almost exclusively about murder. I would expect our society to be desensitized.
Super reaction Dasha 🤣
Most were shaking after this movie ! Anthony Hopkins is simply outstanding !!!
Clarice is a titan of a badass character. A few times during the movie. Clarice is surrounded by much bigger men. In the elevator at the start in Quantico. At the postmortem exam in the small town funder parlor. It is meant to show how she is a female in a male-dominated world of law enforcement. Especially back in the 80's when the movie was based.
At the time only one woman had graduated from the FBI training program. The officers at the funeral parlor watch her with consternation.
What are you gonna do, little lady that we can't do? We're the big bad lawmen in this town.
Yes -- compounded by the ceoss-jurisdictional or cross-agency pissing contest that LEOs can fall into the trap of. All of these things have improved, but humans still do human things.
@@maxtew6521 Very true.
You should react to the TV show Breaking Bad. It is considered one of the greatest shows ever made, and supposedly, Anthony Hopkins himself wrote a letter to Bryan Cranston, the star of the show to tell him he believed it was some of the greatest acting he had ever seen.
Wow...your face when Hannibal attacks the guards!!! 🤣✌
Some actual serial killers stage their victims. Much like Lector did with the policeman he hung up in the movie.
What they do varies depending on the killer.
My aunt took me to see this in the theater when I was 12 (she was only 18 at the time and I'm sure she didnt' know how truly dark or graphic it would be). It's good you didn't see this when you were younger lol.
Watch, "Hannibal Rising." It is a prequel that looks into Hannibal's childhood and explores how he became who he is as an adult. ✌❤🌹
Went to see this one when it first came out in theaters February 1991 very provocative and shocking at the time of its release I was 21 back then now 52
That "tightening" you feel is called terror. 😬
Wow! You are really quick with picking things up. Subtle nuances, turns of phrases of a foreign language (English), cultural references, etc. But you pick it all up right way. You have a very quick and keen mind. Very impressive. You are doing a great job entertaining many thousands of people around the world, dear. Keep up the great work!
Would love to see you react to the Hannibal tv series. I think you’d love it especially with how you picked up on Hannibal being so polite
But Dasha would Never sleep!
"I tighten on the inside"... the twelve year old in me is on the floor, laughing uncontrollably. the words in English to use is "sense of dread" or "the creeps" or even "the willies"
RIP Jonathan Demme.
This year is the 30th Anniversary of the film. I can remember this coming out, still have the Criterion Collection DVD.
The actor who played buffalo bill told the director about the little tuck trick he would do to get laughs from his girlfriend & the director talked him into doing it in the dance scene.
Something that stuck with me is how she wasn't afraid of Lecter after having lied to him. Than it became more obvious why. When upon reaching Hannibals cell she gauged his reaction to see if he'd even be willing to continue talking (which he did), if he had lost all respect for her he would likely have just dismissed her rudely as he has done with all the previous fbi agents.
I don't think Lecter cares about people in general but he admired that she took a stand for what she believes in (a chance to save a girl) and took on the potential hate of one of the most dangerous people in the world (by lying to his face about an offer to a better prison).
Arguably the best Thomas Harris adaptation out there. Red Dragon was tried twice with Manhunter and Red Dragon respectively. And of course Hannibal, an okay book with a decent movie that most people love to hate.
And in the book they let you see from Hannibal's perspective, the cops in charge in Memphis don't understand him like Barney (the orderly) does. Strength and machismo itself can be easily outsmarted.
Are those your paintings in the background? Fitting!
screen writers write the lines, scripts, directers direct the filming process, actors play the charachters, without all the pieces, most movies will be duds. This one was well done in all areas of film making.
Anthony Hopkins performance in this movie is masterful
Anthony Hopkins is one of the greatest actors living today. He has done over 100 movies in his career. He won the Oscar award twice. He played Odin in the Thor movies. You may have noticed that many of the best villans are from the United Kingdom. I noticed your drawing of a mosque in the background. It is excellent work. It looks like Hagia Sophia in Istanbul, Turkey.
The later movies tell u more. How much he protects her and how he became Hannible the cannible. Good job and nice reaction.
Very entertaining and thoughtful reaction. Good job. Thank you.
The piano music that plays before and after he kills the two officers is J.S. Bach's Goldberg Variations. Before, it's the 'Aria' and after was one of the variations. The Goldberg Variations have featured in at least Silence of the Lambs, Hannibal, and Hannibal Rising. I'm not sure about Red Dragon or Manhunter, but I wouldn't be surprised.
Dasha, Slasher villains are easily predictable. However, Hannibal is a genius-level, highly calculated psychopath that will slice your throat if you get in his way or you offend his sensibilities.
That makes Hannibal all the more terrifying. And we love him for it.
And I love how he will just straight up murder someone and turn them into a gourmet dish if he deems they have bad taste. It's a little OP, but...
@@thomasharris4942 Hannibal is just a little OP. THe man needs a glass prision versus regular iron bars. He's so OP
I have always been terrified of and deeply disturbed by cannibalism.... but even still I love Hannibal Lecter as a character. Sir Anthony Hopkins is an amazing actor.
12:15 The stuff they put under their nose to mask the smell is basically Vick's Vapo-Rub. It's like a petroleum jelly (Vaseline) with a strong menthol addition.
Nice one, Dasha! You're very brave for watching this one alone! 🤣
I loved your reaction to this great movie. Anthony Hopkins won an Oscar for his performance.
Many hugs to you from Atlanta Georgia USA
Anthony Hopkins is only on screen for 18 minutes during the whole thing, and he won an Oscar for it.
Buffalo Bill didn't have surgery, he just tucked his penis behind his thighs in that shot.
FYI in the title, you have it as "Silence of the Lamb" instead of "Lambs." Might help the algorithm if you correct that.
You should check out Citizen X. HBO film about Andre Chikatilo, a Soviet-era child killer. Creepy guy.
That is one of the best serial killer films ever. Stephen Rea is great!
You are one of the best reactors on YT. I love your content.
Yet another in a loooong list of great movies that could only exist in a world before cell phones!
You are a strong beautiful young lady and your reactions are so pure. Knowing that it is just a movie you will get over how wild is is. Love your reactions and views.
This movie and the actors in it won just about every award that a movie and actors could win. It is one of the best psychological thrillers ever in the opinion of many. Sir Anthony Hopkins it's considered one of the best actors around and has been for many years.
love it, great reaction again Dasha.... plz do Part 2 and 3 too :))
Watching you react to this movie was great, there were times I just wanted to hug you and say "don't worry it's going to be alright!"
"Hopefully I don't get scared..." Oh Lord...it puts the lotion on the Russian.
Loved watching your reaction to this classic movie ☺️
Did you paint that picture in the background? It looks excellent, especially the sky ❤️
Great reaction video!
They say that Jody Foster and Anthony Hopkins only met once.
During filming they were not in the same room.
Hannibal is played by sir Anthony Hopkins. One of Hollywood’s greats. He’s from wales in the United Kingdom.
I love your reactions!
I would like to provide a short explanation of the Hannibal Lecter franchise, if I may.
There have been 11 installments in the franchise so far: 4 books, 5 films, and 2 TV shows.
The writer Thomas Harris wrote the 1st book “Red Dragon” which came out in 1981.
The novel Red Dragon was adapted into the movie Manhunter, directed by Michael Mann, which came out in 1986. Manhunter cost about $14 or $15 million (about $37 to $39 million in 2022 dollars), but it grossed less than $9 million (about $23 million in 2022 dollars) in the USA. It got mixed reviews at the time, but it has gotten better reviews in recent years. It currently has 93% from all critics on Rotten Tomatoes and 100% from top critics.
Thomas Harris then wrote the 2nd novel “The Silence of the Lambs” which came out in 1988, which is a sequel to the 1st book Red Dragon.
The film “The Silence of the Lambs” then came out in 1991, directed by Jonathan Demme. Jodie Foster played Clarice Starling and Anthony Hopkins (now Sir Anthony Hopkins as of 1993) played Dr. Hannibal Lecter. It could be argued that the film “The Silence of the Lambs” is a sequel to the film “Manhunter” but this is not the usual understanding.
Thomas Harris then wrote the 3rd book “Hannibal” which came out in 1999, which is a sequel to the 2nd novel The Silence of the Lambs.
The novel “Hannibal” was then adapted into the film “Hannibal” in 2001. Unlike the questionable relationship between the first 2 movies (Manhunter and The Silence of the Lambs), the film “Hannibal” is unquestionably a direct sequel to the film The Silence of the Lambs. Sir Anthony Hopkins returned to play Dr. Hannibal Lecter in the film Hannibal. Jodie Foster unfortunately did not return to play Clarice Starling in Hannibal, but I can’t say why until after you see it, if you choose to.
It was then decided to adapt again the original book Red Dragon in 2002 into the film Red Dragon, directed by Brett Ratner and starring Sir Anthony Hopkins as Dr. Hannibal Lecter. The 2002 film Red Dragon is unquestionably a direct prequel to the film The Silence of the Lambs.
Thomas Harris then wrote the 4th book “Hannibal Rising” which came out in 2006, which is a prequel to the 1st book Red Dragon. It starts with Hannibal Lecter as a child in Europe during World War 2.
The book Hannibal Rising was then adapted into the film Hannibal Rising in 2007, directed by Peter Webber, as a prequel to the film Red Dragon.
The TV show “Hannibal” was then created in 2013. It ran for 3 seasons until 2015.
The final installment, so far, has been the TV show “Clarise” which only ran for 1 season in 2021.
I would also like to briefly note the success of the film The Silence of the Lambs and its 2 stars.
The great Jodie Foster earned her first Oscar nomination at the age of only 12 in the 1976 film Taxi Driver.
In 1987, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth the Second appointed Anthony Hopkins (who is actually British) to the prestigious rank of Commander of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire, which is abbreviated as CBE, thus transforming Anthony Hopkins into Anthony Hopkins CBE.
In 1988, Jodie Foster starred in the film “The Accused” earning her the Oscar for Best Actress.
The film “The Silence of the Lambs” cost about $19 million to make (about in $40 million in 2022) and grossed about $273 million (about $576 million in 2022).
At the Academy Awards in 1992, The Silence of the Lambs won Oscars in all 5 major categories: Best Picture, Best Directing to Jonathan Demme, Best Actress to Jodie Foster, Best Actor to Anthony Hopkins, and Best Writing (Adapted Screenplay) to Ted Tally. Only 2 other movies have ever won in all 5 major categories. The Silence of the Lambs is also one of only 6 horror films to be nominated for Best Picture, and the only horror film ever to win Best Picture.
In 1993, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth knighted Anthony Hopkins CBE, thus transforming Anthony Hopkins CBE into Sir Anthony Hopkins CBE.
"Just call someone.". Dasha, this was before cell phones. I know you're young, but remember that cell phones are still very new. I love your reactions and your innocence.
Shawshank redemption
The green mile
Gladiator
The crow
Terminator 1 and 2
The Crow in that list?
Am I the only one who drew the connection between what Hannibal did to Lt. Boyle (Charles Napier's character) and the brand of pen he used (stolen from Dr. Chilton) to pick the handcuffs...?
It's a CROSS pen btw. I know bc I've owned several.
The usual GREAT reaction by Dasha!!!
The composer who wrote the music for this movie also wrote the music for The Lord of the Rings, Howard Shore.
I have to catch up on so many of these classics. Good choices, Dasha
Movie: Do you spook easily?
Dasha: I do.....I DO.
IDK why but that struck me as funny XD
Brings new meaning to the movie "Face Off"! 🤣🤣🤣
This movie really shows his talent as an actor. Hard to believe that's the same guy who plays Thor's dad Odin
