  • Tucking into a delicious Thanksgiving dinner? Don't forget your liver, fava beans and chianti! Jonathan Demme's masterpiece is a pretty faithful adaptation of Thomas Harris' novel but translates the page to the screen in some fascinating ways.

    Its a little known fact that the line about the wine and the beans was a subtle hint to clarice. See, at the time the kind of meds used on doctor lector had 2 things that you could Not consume while on them without risking your life. What were they?
    Fava beans and alcohol.
    He wasnt telling her a story of when he ate someone.
    He was telling her hes off his meds, and that he was still very, VERY dangerous

    There are other differences:
    1) In the book, the moth was a Black Witch, not a Death's Head.
    2) Cut from the film is a scene in which a Johns Hopkins doctor berates Crawford for stereotyping transexuals.
    3) Lecter has maroon eyes in the book.
    4) Gumb had a habit of watching a video of a woman he claimed was his mother before killing his victims.
    5) In another case of time condensing, Catherine held Precious hostage for much longer in the book. Clarice arrived and dispatched Gumb just as he had pieced together that Catherine had no intention of hurting his dog.
    6) No mention of Precious's ultimate fate: one of the firemen who was called to get Catherine out of the pit decided to take her home with him.
    7) Gumb did manage to choke out a death rattle before dying: "How does it...feel... to be... so beautiful?"
    8) Gumb's killing methods started out much more sloppily: initially he would slip a rope around his victim's neck after luring her upstairs, then he'd push her back down.
    9) The makeshift key Lecter used to escape was a project he'd been working on from the beginning of his incarceration. He collected bits and pieces left behind by careless orderlies, and by the time Barney took charge, it was too late.
    10) When Lecter called Clarice back and gave her some info after Miggs threw his semen at her, he started out as being loud and indignant, but then calmed down and gave her the clue with his usual demeanor. It wasn't a shouting match from start to finish.
    11) Cut from the film is a scene in which Clarice searches Catherine Martin's apartment, finds some shady materials, and gets into an argument with Senator Martin about her daughter's life.

      also, when Lecter was interrogated by Senator Martin, Lecter gave them false hint.
      1. In the movie Lecter said that the killer's name is LOUIS FRIEND (anagram for IRON SULFIDE, also known as Fool's Gold, which means Lecter's clues are useless).
      2. In the book Lecter simply said that the killer's name is BILLY RUBIN, which is a word play for Bilirubin, the pigment contained in feces, and the color of Chilton's hair is similar to feces.

    One of the things I loved about the movie is that the changes to the book were made smartly and the scriptwriter made sure to fill in the potential plot hole created by these changes. However, the biggest change for me was the relationship between Clarice and Crawford, and the changes made to that made sense in the movie. What a masterpiece.

The anti-psychotics Hannibal is on during the film has a warning in regards to what to consume it with and it expressly forbids Chianti due to adverse side-effects.

    "Chianti" is usually a very cheap wine which is considered to be an "every day wine" in Italy, often served alongside lunch or dinner, it´s basically just a beverage to flush down the food. Amarone literally means "the Great Bitter" and it´s a much more refined wine supposed to be savored instead of just being used to flush down food. So it´s obvious that a distinguished and sophisticated cannibal like Lector would rather choose an Amarano than a "cheap" Chianti.

    • @Treblaine
      @Treblaine 5 лет назад +16

      The thing is, Clarice (like the audience) would be far more likely to know a cheap wine than an expensive wine so he may have just said it was a Chianti to get his point across of "don't mess with me, look what I did to someone who messed with me".

    Thoughts so far, Lecter, out of all of the men in the movie, is ironically the only one that really recognizes and respects Clarice. The psychopathic cannibal killer is courteous to her (mostly), trusts her, wants to help her and think she is capable enough to succeed. Its kind of mind blowing but he actually comes across as a crazy father figure. Like causing the other immate to kill himself after assaulting Clarice, he feel protective of her and vengeful when someone wronged her. He becomes a mentor in some way. On the other hand, the rest of the men don't respect her, don't see her abilities and are all trying to get down her pants all of the time. I feel like there is more to explore with this idea but it hasn't hit me yet.

If only Buffalo Bill could've had the same depth afforded to him, right? Then Silence (the book) would be perfect.

    In the movie, every single male character makes a move on Clarisse, which further builds her character as a strong female trying to make it on her own in a world of domineering males. Even her commanding officer, Jack Crawford is included in this, symbolically. Lecter asks Clarisse the question of whether she thinks Jack Crawford has sexual feelings for her, and this completes the pattern of having every male in the film make advances towards her.

      At around 1 hour mark in the movie, Chilton leaves his pen (not intentionally) and Hannibal is eyeballing it, so I assume that's where he got the pen to free himself. A few minutes later in the movie, Chilton wants to sign a document, but can't seem to find his pen.

      In the book it is slightly more plausible as well. In the book he has six fingers on one of his hands, and hides his makeshift key between his fingers on the other hand. When guards are putting handcuffs on him they are distracted by the six fingered hand and don’t notice the small metal key

    Biggest difference that comes to my mind is the basement of the asylum in which Lecter is incarcerated. In the book he is a modern cell, brightly lit with (I believe) white walls. In the movie it's some kind of medieval brick-walled dungeon, which of course gives a great first creepy impression, but doesn't make any sense if you think about it.

    I haven't read the book since the movie came out, but at one point Lecter writes a note to Chilton and modifies the name "Chilton" with a series of numbers and symbols that turns it into the formula for the chemical that makes feces brown. A brilliant and humiliating detail that didn't find room in the movie, as I recall.

    • @michaelholt4557

    You should do Hannibal (2001) and the book. That would be a way more interesting difference. LOL.
    Also, the movie was not able to translate just the kind of fear Clarice had for Lecter, it felt a bit as if she wasn't really afraid. While in the book you can tell something upsets her.
    And, Harris says that beside Clarice on the bed MIGHT be Pilcher, however, it is never said that they indeed had sex, actually it would be unlikely given the fact that she was exhausted after Bill's case.

    Very good comparison. However, I'd like to point out that in the book, Lecter had six fingers on his left hand, not his right. A small nitpick, but still I wanted to mention it. Also, I noticed that in the book, the moth cocoon found in the girl's throat was actually a Black Witch moth, while the Death's Head moth cocoon was found in the mouth of the guy's head Clarice found in the storage shed. On that note, another minor difference was that the head was not Benjamin Raspail, but his casual lover, Klaus. Jame Gumb killed him out of jealousy, and Lecter killed Raspail for his own reasons ("his therapy was going nowhere", possibly?). I feel like the changes really helped the movie keep its excellent pace, and prevents confusion for the viewer. Still, excellent video about an excellent film based on an excellent book.
    PS: Red Dragon? Maybe a three-way comparison between the novel, the 1986 film Manhunter, and the 2002 remake? Also, Hannibal (the book/2001 film)?

  • @architeuthis3476

    Strangely enough, I actually watched both _Manhunter_ and _Silence of the Lambs_ last night with a friend who had never seen either before. Will Graham _is_ mentioned in SotL, but its very easy to miss & doesn't really matter: in the beginning when Clarice is walking through the FBI office she passes someone who says the name "Will Graham." That's it.
    Also, yes, I want to see the eyes video.

Chilton is still responsible for transferring Lecter to another facility from which he ultimately escapes, but not for doing something so boneheaded as dropping things in his cell.

    I apologize if anyone has already mentioned this, but I thought a significant change between the novel and the film was regarding the relationship between Clarice and Catherine's mother, the Senator. I believe in the book they actually meet in a scene in Catherine's apartment. I think they kind of combined it in the book with Clarice being in Frederica's room. In the novel scene, Clarice finds evidence of Catherine's not so straight-laced behaviors. The senator gets a little nasty with Clarice. Which leads to another difference. Regarding Catherine's abduction. Catherine was over at her boyfriend's apartment, which I believe was in the same apartment building. They were getting high. Which I thought was always what the movie was implying by having Catherine listening to Tom Petty. It was supposed to be a sort of wink. I presumed that the filmmaker's were worried about the audience sympathizing with Catherine if she was smoking pot. I was surprised to not see those mentioned in the video above.

He said the entire movie theatre was silent at the end of the movie because of how powerful it was. I was watching Silence of the Lambs in the Bitown theatre in Ottawa with a friend. It had already been seen by a lot of people before. Still...at the last scene with the night goggles. I looked around and observed that every single person was silent...hardly breathing. That sort of tension and suspense seems to be lost in a lot of the more modern thrillers.
