CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Clarice (Jodie Foster) has a growing suspicion that the caretaker of Mrs. Lippman's house (Ted Levine) is the long-sought killer Buffalo Bill.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
In this multiple Oscar-winning thriller, Jodie Foster stars as Clarice Starling, a top student at the FBI's training academy whose shrewd analyses of serial killers lands her a special assignment: the FBI is investigating a vicious murderer nicknamed Buffalo Bill, who kills young women and then removes the skin from their bodies. Jack Crawford (Scott Glenn) wants Clarice to interview Dr. Hannibal Lecter (Anthony Hopkins), a brilliant psychiatrist who is also a violent psychopath, serving life behind bars for various acts of murder and cannibalism. Crawford believes that Lecter may have insight into this case and that Starling, as an attractive young woman, may be just the bait to draw him out. Lecter does indeed know something of Buffalo Bill, but his information comes with a price: in exchange for telling what he knows, he wants to be housed in a more comfortable facility. More important, he wants to speak with Clarice about her past. He skillfully digs into her psyche, forcing her to reveal her innermost traumas and putting her in a position of vulnerability when she can least afford to be weak. The film mingles the horrors of criminal acts with the psychological horrors of Lecter's slow-motion interrogation of Clarice and of her memories that emerge from it.

Pretending to be sane must be tiring for a psychopath.
Actually, isn't it that sociopaths and psychopaths are not insane, but can fake insanity? The main thing I remember reading about psychopaths it that they have a complete lack of empathy, but are often sane. They just enjoy doing wrong.
***** Exactly. Same goes for narcissists.
Bronze Oceans Really? Huh. The more you know… :)
***** No, that's sociopaths, but psychopaths are by definition, insane.
Luke Eriksson actually, technically, psychopaths aren't considered insane, at least in the clinical (DSM) sense of the word; they're not considered to suffer from psychoses. Psychopathy lies - as scary as this sounds - on the spectrum of personality disorders, although there's some debate about whether or not it should be considered its own distinct disorder or if it is in fact an intermingling of elements from several other disorders.
i like how she fumbled a little bit when drawing her fire arm. Letting us remember shes just a trainee, still scared.
Yep, I caught that, too.
It makes her human, not some unbelievable "badass" Mary Sue, and it really is a nice touch.
Also, when she kills Buffalo Bill, you'll notice that she flinches with each muzzle blast, another sign of a rookie shooter, even though she was fortunate by putting all six rounds into him.
She also fumbles a bit with her speedloader for the reload immediately afterward.
@Paulo Hernanndizz Actually, she should have practiced her draw, particularly from a concealed holster. She was damned lucky she didn't fumble and drop the gun. If she had, Gumm could've grabbed his gun and it would've been curtains for her.
That’s one of the many things that made her so great in this. Other actresses would be acting like Charlie’s Angels which would not have been realistic. Reality is she would’ve been trembling which is what she was doing in this scene.
J Smith she didn’t fumble. She cocked it first. So when she pulled it out it would ready to shoot. Xo
In the book she is a good gun handler. The best in her class at Quantico. When she draws in the book she doesnt fumble.
The moment the other detectives realize they’re in the wrong place, and therefore Clarice is in the RIGHT place, completely alone.. man. Chills down the spine. Such a gripping, riveting movie.
Agreed! And you said it so well.
But how did he know Clarice went to the actual kiIIer's house?
@@rolandpereira4161 Exactly, Crawford sent Clarice home, he wouldn't know that she was at the killers house
@@rolandpereira4161 Yes! That always bothers me. Just because they are at the wrong house, why do they think she is at BB's house?
@@rolandpereira4161its a massive plothole in my opinion. He would've had no reason to think she was at his home. They put the scene in for dramatic effect. That buffalo Bill lets starling in for no reason makes sense. He's trying to get off on being under no detection, and likely is attracted to her. As for crawford saying that is just for the movie to sound more dramatic
1:51 She looks at the moths and realizes its him. she is so scared it itakes her an extra second to move her eyes up to see him. The acting is brilliant. 30 years on and I never get tired to watching this scene.
and what does the moth represent ?
@@sdqsdq6274 Watch the rest of the film, and all will be revealed...
I don’t remember why the moth is significant here. I e seen the film but it’s been a long time.
Same here...
The cocoon of one is found in the throat of one of the corpses. She finds out the type and rarity of the moth and that it must have been kept as a pet. The moth she sees in this scene is that same kind of moth and tips her off.
"Oh wait was she a great big fat person?"
Yes she was a big girl sir
clannibalshipper haha!
+clannibalshipper Yesh, she wash a big gurl.
yep
+jakethemuss3 Donald trump quote lol
I love how he drops those cards and slithers around the corner
best slither ever
he is so evasive and flexible
Almost looked like a girl slither in my opinion, kinda funny
I playfully execute that slither when my girlfriend reaches out for hugs once in awhile
Yes and joseph is definitely not going after him...
Ted Levine deserves much more credit than he gets...he's an amazing actor and shines in everything he's done.
bingo.
Ted Levine is one of these actors who somehow never gets to be the main star but makes huge impression wherever he appears.
I'd give him an Oscar. I'd give him an Oscar so hard...
he is a great character actor
The best part, maybe of the whole movie, is the moment when the moth lands. When it dawns on her immediately. And it dawns on him that the she knows. Perfectly incapsulated by the music. It's such a perfect scene.
He did not know she saw the moth. Her wanting to use the phone was the signal for him.
The best part of the movie is when Clarice told Lecter her dirty, little secret about the lambs. Then Lecter says thank you Clarice, thank you.
@@dac8939 No, I think he knows before that. He starts laughing before he hands her the card. His questions were probing in a way as if he asked her: And? Haven't you caught up to me, yet?
@@dac8939In the book they both know because she does not look at the moth
Ted Levine killed it as Buffalo Bill. He was so creepy without being over the top.
+rushdi34 Yeah, he really nailed the subtle creepiness of BB.
He WAS over the top in the "rubs the lotion" scene.
Sam Kresil
I am never over the top.
(gasp) rushdi34 and Mr.OmegaBeams He found me!
But he did mock that poor girl in the hole in the end.
The real scary part is that your friendliest neighbor could be like him.
No I'm not!
@@fiversrevenge No you're not a lovely neighbor?
How do we know you’re not like him
@@IEEteammateMATT1 u don't
He reminds me of the friendly giant I met in my dream.
The use of the actors looking directly into the camera is not a traditional filmmaking style but it is beautifully mastered in this movie. So unbelievably unsettling when Lecter or Buffalo Bill do it but when Clarice does you feel the exact opposite - you feel sympathy and you always root for her.
Jodie's acting was amazing. the way her eyes teared up when she knew she was in danger was chilling
Jodi is one of the few actors who can act with just their eyes. Debra Winger could too in her early films.
1:55 when she sees the moth land - Clarice the huntress now knows for sure she has the man she seeks... and as you said - you can see it in her eyes, the focused and aware stare.
She’s a terrible actress.
@@Kling195 get a job
@@kellymulderino7156 That has nothing to do with my comment. Dumbass.
His performance was an Oscar worthy, I can't believe he wasn't even nominated.
not much appearance for him
even fewer than hannibal lector
That's not an excuse. There was an actress named Beatrice Straight who won the Oscar for best supporting actress in 1977 for Network, a movie in which she only had one 5 minute scene!
Oscars are all politics anyway. No one at that time would want to vote for someone playing as a trans guy. Same kind of situation with good actors from war movies such as Apocalypse Now, the business doesn't want a movie that showed America's bad side to be nominated for any awards.
Ron H I have a huge problem with the best picture award winner most of the time, I mean movies like The Heart locker or Spotlight should never win a best picture award, Yes it's good directed and it has a good story but It's not fucking entertaining to watch.
Waleed Albarakati fuck the oscars, they don't matter
Her face when she suddenly realizes. She does an amazing job of looking scared as hell.
Yeah I couldn't agree more! She looks so scared and her face is pale like a ghost
You just summed up her acting style.
My thoughts exactly, great acting right there.
She realized it when he said "(J)ack (G)ordon (JamieGumm)
@@Fan_Made_Videos no she finally realized when she saw the moth
What I find really terrifying is that she knew before she knew. As she’s walking in, she’s asking seemingly routine questions, but her expression is one of anxiety and fear. That moment is a microcosm of her struggle at large. A man (Crawford) had told her that Jame Gumb was thousands of miles away, effectively compelling her to suppress her instincts. A deeper, more intuitive part of Clarice knew that she was in the presence of evil way before that moth landed. And Jodie Foster captures all of it. I love the film.
She knew, yes, and confirmed it when she Saw the moth on the threads !
Absolutly, She knew she was right at this place.
I like how he timidly laughs when he knows he's been finally found.
*My phone, of course you can use my phone...*
2:24 - 2:27 that chuckle and the look in his eyes, is like a child who got caught after doing a mischief. Levine is phenomenal
in my opinion - He got the strongest and the most difficult part to play!
He knew it he knew he was made......why he chuckled
@@christinasavannah7992 don't u get it
Cuz he's mad
@@christinasavannah7992 he noticed the gun and he knows that he can kill her easily like his previous victims
@@mirainikki6665 hes not mad.
Buffalo Bill has to be the most chilling serial killer ever portrayed. Truly the stuff of nightmares. Hats off to Ted levene, amazing acting.
You mean hannibal lecter
Caleb Rodriguez no, I’m more afraid of bill.
Gumb *is* the actual villain of the story
@kay doyle like I was joking because I was more scared of hannibal lecter since he doesnt care what gender you are he will eat you unless you're a kid. Buffalo bill only kill women.
He was actually based on Ted Bundy. If you remember the scene with the van where he tricked some one to help him by pretending to have an injury. That was bundy’s mo. Look it up on line.
2:24
That's such a brilliant "I know that you know" moment. Kind of reminds me of the scene where Hannibal criticized her forms as a misstep in developing rapport. It's almost like he was training her for this moment, and she dropped the ball. "Can I use your phone?" His stifled laughter is so sinister, but man, of course he laughed.
Just the way he closes the door behind her...She's not going anywhere.
And that subtle pan up to the moth painting. Great filmmaking!
Love that shot at 0:48. So serene yet so sinister, as if telling us, "No one's going to help her."
I never thought of it that way but you’re exactly right. The director did a great job.
You nailed it. I've watched this movie dozens of times and never really been able to put my finger on why this shot is so very lonely. It's because it's a forgotten place, on the train tracks beside the river, where trains rumble by regularly but no one ever stops at, and here is Clarice, away from everyone else, alone and thoroughly outmatched.
It’s also a nice establishing shot that helps us transition into the otherworldly nightmare realm of Buffalo Bill’s lair.
🐑🐑🐑👆
@@jonnybirchyboy1560Yeah, exactly. I hadn’t thought of it like that. The landscape around the house and town. The camera pans over to the house. Looking at the house, on the outside, it looks to be a beautiful house. Till the camera takes you inside and you see, in it’s heyday, it was a spacious beautiful home. Till buffalo bill got ahold of it, he makes it look dark and ugly. Just by the way he lived. It was awful.
The tension in this scene is perfect. What an amazing film
indeed, and Jodie Foster's performance is astonishing
+Roger Michou also Anthony Hopkins and Ted Lavine.
Manoli S. True
yes, the film and all the scenes of it are breathtaking!
It’s April 18, 2022. This scene never gets old. It still grips me like the first time I’ve seen it. Same goes for the entire movie, which right now I want to watch again.
2:29 that unblinking stare and tiny swallow is such a subtle way of showing how terrified she is. Fantastic movie.
It's unbelieveable how she managed to, practicaly without words, manage to capture that mix of emotions - fear, anger, disgust. Meanwhile, you can see how he doesn't even care, it's almost as if he is glad.
I think the music score did it.
@@johnpontes812 Yes, it's just a soundtrack one would expect for a dilapidated house with a corpse in a bathtub... and moths
Many of them love the chase or are actually relieved of being caught.
Something I always wondered, did he plan to kill her so that's why he let her in the house?
Otherwise why let the fbi in your creepy house.
What Shut Up
Great acting by Ted Levine, gave me chills.
As he's written and acted in this movie, Buffalo Bill is probably the most believable screen serial killer I've ever seen. That's not saying he's mundane or typical, just that the details seem to add up. He's not cobbled together purely for effect.
Vincent Luciano The fact that he later played Capt Stottlemeyer on Monk nearly blew my mind. He was the most believable serial killer I'd ever seen. He definitely embodied the role.
His character seems drunk.
He played it perfect....
Vincent Luciano
Acting? Who is acting?
I love the way he Wiggles his way out of sight and drops the cards on the floor!!! Good Move!!!
God.... I've seen this film probably 100 times. One of my absolute favorites. I still get chills watching this seen. The realization on Clarice's face when she noticed the moth and how she slightly fumbled the draw of her weapon is just fantastic!
I love how flamboyant he is, along with his very deep voice.
Hahaha 🤣 😁
zero fcks given for anything on the floor. Mentalist.
He sounds like Chris Griffin
I like his shirt too
@@SarastistheSerpent That's because the voice actor admitted to modeling his voice after BIll
“Oh wait....was she a great, big, fat person?” Straight to the point our Buffalo Bill 😂
Lmao
Yeah she was a big girl...
Lol yeah he doesnt beat around the bush
I can't help wondering was he thinking of her when he skinned her as he smiled?
@Bubba Sawyer 'great, big, fat person..' So PC lol!
I love the little pirouette he does around the kitchen. ❤
Tremendous acting! Like you can see how he’s trying so hard to act normal but he has no idea how to because he’s a serial killer and lacks all the basic human emotions and it clearly shows he is trying to act normal but can’t! Truly amazing acting
2:33 Jodie Foster looks like she's about to burst into tears, but instead she pulls out her weapon and chases him down. Such a great performance. And a human hero.
Clarice is terrified because its confirmed he is buffalo bill......that why her eyes show terror
There are only a small handful of films in history which rival the performances in this one.
I must say she was just as important to the movie as was anthony hopkins. I ain't much of an acting teacher, but they had a chemistry, which just wasn't there in the other films
@@lindenstromberg6859 very few
She’s acting
Damn the dude who plays Buffalo Bill is a real good actor.
Ted Levine
When I first saw the movie, I thought the Bill character was miscast b/c he didn't look scary to me. Later it seems to work just by how he acts, creepy & weird.
@I8thumper Captain Leland Stottlemeyer, SFPD.
Brenda Forster monk would be disgusted in his house
@@user-su1gf4jb6r Absolutely.
This scene still gives me chills down my spine. His voice her assertion yet caution the silence but the birds chirping in this small town the grimy old azzz house. I can smell it and feel it as i watch. My goodness no other movie has captured me and brought me in like this! Remember the first time i snuck and watched this i was 10. Frightening
"oh wait, is she a great big fat person"?😆 i loved that line as a kid, still made me laugh
made or makes?
@@kievbound9146 it made me laugh when i watched this
Obesity isn’t a laughing matter. Research the roots of it if you already haven’t.
@@severetiredamage6754 im not fat so not my problem
It's a depressing and scary line in context. Bill is meant to be acting normally so as not to draw attention to himself, but he thinks either that line is a normal reaction everyone would make, making fun of a murder victim because she was fat, or it literally strikes him as funny, making fun of a murder victim because she was fat. His emotional disconnection and lack of empathy is scary
Ted Levine is a great actor. He was absolutely creepy in this film but years later portrayed a lovable police chief in Monk.
This is his better performance though
I agree, great actor. Shutter Island he was good as well.
@@ethanweeter2732 In Shutter Island Portrait he performed was one of the cold blooded character i've ever seen, it still hunts me down
You forgot Bloodbath McGrath from Wild Wild West.
"Candyy cane"
I just love how Jodie Foster shows every single weakness, every single fear of her character in order to build an incredibly strong woman, Clarice Starling.
She makes Clarice vulnerable, and therefore human. Her courage makes her all the more heroic
So to be strong u need to be weak yup got it
@@gregsage4514
No, it means you have to develop your strength by overcoming hardships/ your weaknesses, you have to work for it.
Otherwise you have a Mary sue which is catastrophical and boring for a lead character.
@@DomeLP09 case in point : Rey from the new Star Wars trilogy.
No you don’t understand the point, if anything the way she portrayed clarice is the most realistic portrayal of a strong female character all around. She has the mental fortitude but also the vulnerability that would be natural in any human given the situation. She is not over the top like most female “strong character” are portrayed in today’s cinema. Over the top, thinks they are just as good as anyone, giving off a spiel of being an independent woman all the while being stoic and humorless because god forbid she shows any other emotion. Clarice doesn’t need to prove all that to be a strong female character, we know she is, her ability to overcome adversity in sprite of her fears and heartaches she keeps going forward. She is relatable and realistic, her emotions doesn't diminish her strength. She knows what she is up against, the room where she is surrounded by all male police officers as they look down on her, she knows that she is a woman in a male dominated profession, she doesn’t need to make a huge statement about it, she lets her actions speaks for themselves.
2:26 the throat too, so brilliant
One of the greatest scenes in all of movie history. You suddenly realize that they had the wrong house, Jodie Foster is all alone and there's no one around to help her, it's just her and the evil... And she is so afraid and takes command.
I love the little dramatic flourish of how he lets the business cards spill from his hands, then that effeminate twirl as he goes to the kitchen for the pistol. I think it was because at that moment he dropped the normal act. A guy acting like someone acting, who suddenly drops the act, the guy who played Buffalo Bill NAILED it.
Yes someone gets it
How were camera placement and angles used to create suspense
yup just as lector said he isn't a real transsexual he pretends to be because he hates who he is inside so he pretends to be normal and pretends to be transsexual and pretends to be a woman too as lector says he tries to be lots of things..
Easy lover
The way he ran was funny
Ted Levine's performance is so overlooked. He was amazing.
should have been awarded
He did awesome in jurrasic world as well. I couldnt tell it was him
What do you mean? Everyone seems to rave about it.
It was not overlooked at all.
half of the comments are about his acting, think he's widely recognized and with a reason
His smile, lifting his hands and nonchalantly dropping the cards. A loaded revolver is pointed and he spins away making her chase him … wow! Breathtaking 😮
“FREEZE! Put you hands..” and he vanishes like a ballerina. Real smooth!
cha cha real smooth
There's the blooper, where Jodie Foster (Clarisse Starling) fails on that line, and you can even hear Ted Levine (Buffalo Bill) laugh... along with the crew!
I know, I would've just unloaded that model 13 at him then reloaded and probably unloaded it at him again.
That move around the corner was everything
@@lulub1433 this comment should have more likes. It's frightening and kind of funny at the same time
He is so freakishly believable it's amazing.
one of the greatest scenes in cinema history
I always loved the contrast of the fear you feel for her and the sounds of the birds singing.
You can literally sense her fear when she finds out she found the guy.
Incredible actress
He's the guy...
It dawns on her that he moved house to be close to his first victim, meaning she has no backup. The FBI team has gone to the wrong house. She has to make the arrest on her own.
@@colliric Yes, precisely. And she has no experience, when she drew the gun it was clumsy.
@@stephenson19861 True. The smart thing to to was not let him know that She suspects he's the killer. Leave the house, drive away and wait for backup.
Whenever someone says "You remember so-and-so, right?" I always drop the "Wait, was she/he a great big fat person?" in the same voice. No one ever seems to get it.
***** i need to practice doing his voice since you said you do that, i tend to learn to do certain voices for certain lines
angel of death I need to practice Starling's voice and gratification of this scene, as you would like to perfect his lines! (Sorry to intrude, btw..... this is just in the top 3 of my cinematic favs'). 👍👍👍
+Rein Engel hahaha
now that is a classic!
+Rein Engel Lol...do the same thing. No one catches it either...lol
Buffalo Bill is new normal of today in America.
Stunning and brave
"Oh wait, was she a great big fat person?" ... it always makes me crack up how he tries to be polite and discreet in the first place by saying "great" and then comes the rest. 😂
When Buffalo Bill is holding in his laugh, he's not even looking at Clarice for a split-second.
Chilling moment, almost as if the porch lights turned on even if nobody was home.
I think it was a nervous reaction that he covered up with a laugh. It seemed almost like a convulsion on his part. Some of the best acting in any movie ever, on both parts.
Since he’s into moths, your porch light analogy is accidentally really good.
@@maxxxmodelz4061 I'd need to read the book again, but I think he had such contempt for Starling that he didn't really consider her a threat. It's a laugh of derision I think.
The pan at 0:47 is the scariest part of this scene, perhaps of the whole movie. It not only emphasizes how isolated Clarice is from help, but also how ordinary Buffalo Bill's house looks from the outside, and yet how perfect it is for concealing his "work."
you think it's ordinary? i think it looks creepy as hell out in the middle of no where and with a horrible train track across the way to muffle his victims screams.
It's a scary pan, because it reveals the killer bought a house about 80 feet away from 3 railway lines, which means he probably doesn't get much sleep most of the time?
To me, his neighborhood and that of Frederica's were always the creepiest parts of the movie. They seemed so cold, isolated, devoid of life and human interaction. Watching these scenes when I was a young boy has always stuck with me.
@@michaeltrevino201 oh my god that’s exactly how i felt . When Clarice is going thru her room and the shot of her dad outside at the clothes line stuck with me as being hopeless. Nothing more to live for.
I thought it was bc it all just came together for her in that what she was seeing. She was seeing buffalo bill
I’ve watched this movie at least a dozen times and it doesn’t get old. So well done and the acting is so great. Take note Hollywood, make good movies.
For anyone interested, Bill's house has been transformed into an incredible tourist destination, a genuine treat for fans of this movie and of horror in general. An absolute one-of-a-kind experience.
BILL JUST TWINKLED TOED OUT THE KITCHEN DOOR
That’s was F’ing hysterical
@@llg3pe
His glitter dust (papers) sprinklage made the scene as he hopped about.
Most graceful pirouette ever executed on celluloid.
lmao that turn around escape at 2:38 is the funniest thing I've ever seen
Tom Saffioti yeah it is ha ha
You should watch more movies.
Rather comical for sure. Why didn't Clarice just play it off, take the card, leave the home, then call for backup. Maybe she was thinking of the welfare of the kidnapped victim but still.
@@Stanlayy-em4fk She tried to play it off ("May I use your phone please") but he clearly already knew that she knew.
@@Stanlayy-em4fk in the book it explains that she was worried he would kill the girl if she left
It doesn't get much better than this. That moth...storytelling at it's finest.
i cannot imagine buffalo bill meeting with a real estate agent.
Dude is seriously terrifying. His lovable character in TV's Monk proves it wasn't a one-off of good casting, either, he's a really great actor.
boiledelephant he was great in the remake of The Hills Have Eyes as the retired cop/gun enthusiast
A great actor
I agree. Underrated imo
That kind of acting range is truly rare...
He was also a police officer in _Heat..._
"It puts the Oscar in the basket or it gets the hose again!"
hahaha
"It does so whenever it's told"
It puts the Joe Dirt in the hole
Yes precious-she will get the hose.
Lol, best comment today.
It’s very interesting how polite jame and Francis are I love the antagonists of this franchise they’re so interesting to watch
This scene is movie history.
I like how she slowly realized it was him. First, she noticed the sewing equipment. Then she saw the moth.
But him trying to supress his giggles really sealed the deal.
How were camera placement and angles used to create suspense
How was him suppressing his giggles a clue that he was buffalo bill.
@@Galilelo_Telescope Who giggles while talking about a murder they have a connection to?
Such a clever brave girl ....so patient so calm so thoughtful ....and so right
Ted Levine is just amazing in this movie. I do not understand how we cannot see him more.
The zoom on Crawford´s face at 0:09 is absolutely amazing. No music, no fancy dialogue, just simple yet highly effective camero work and amazing acting. One of the many many great moments in this movie.
Tells you that Crawford figured out he moved to be near his first victim and Clarice is about to go door knocking in that neighbourhood.
This is the moment where Jack Crawford's face shows pure horror. He realizes that his fellow agent is in terrible danger and nowhere close to help her.
Absolutely! It's a very smooth push-in, the camera moves towards the subject, done here with perfect follow focus. These shots are so awesome, if done well, because you get the sense of depth.
Notice this is the only time in the film where Crawford calls Starling "Clarice". Crawford has been all business and sometimes callous towards Starling throughout the film, but once his protege is in danger, his conscience is stirred.
I didn't like that shot, though. It was too leading for the audience. It gives away who Jack Gordon is before we see the moth, which would be the more cinematic clue
This movie has one of the best acting I've ever seen. You barely notice you're watching a movie.
Great comment!
1:52 I really like how her eyes subtly yet pretty noticeably open up right after she starts looking towards him. Like she's fully realizing exactly who she's looking at.
42 Y/O And Consider this my All-Time Favorite Movie. Saw at my childhood friends house in 93 94.
That look he gives her at 2:25. Like they both know what the other is thinking. Superb acting and priceless moment that make this such a classic film.
What's even scarier is that Gumb is completely unintimidated when she does draw her pistol. She's in his house now!
All you catch
"The police around here don't seem to have the first clue". Holds back a smug grin.
That is what serial killers do, they want information on the case.
He sounds like Kermit the frog there, lol
@@jonnybirchyboy1560 The Kermit who Skinned and Ate Ms. Piggy.
He asked too many questions about the murder. If he'd switched to a mundane topic Clarice wouldn't have been as suspicious. Still the sewing equipment and moth gave it away.
Ed Gein used to joke to neighbors about missing girls in his house, they'd shake their heads and dismiss it.
Never enter suspects house alone
every actor in this film was legendary
They don't do movies like this anymore.................
+Denis Organishuk
Well know we have better cameras soooo
Nothing to do with quality. Back then they used film, today its all digital. It was a blatant statement to a bland comment that I didn't like.
+Ed A. have you watched whiplash, ex machina, birdmen recently? those are great movies, saying stuff like they don't make good movies anymore is stupid.
Denis Organishuk I agree 100%
The first Saw film?
I am so lucky to have seen this in the theater on February 16 1991. I sat in the second row and my parents sat in the back. This movie is a masterpiece. Almost 30 years later and it can still have a visceral effect on me. Only the greatest films can do this.
I went to see it with my dad a few days after it opened! I was blown away the first time I saw it!
I live 5 miles away from this house in Layton,PA
You're so visceral
I rented it from Blockbuster.
I saw it with my family when it first came out on video. I was 9 and thought it was a good movie but when I watched it again when I was in college it clicked how great this movie is. Has aged extremely well.
Everyone was amazing Jodi, Ted, Anthony, just awesome. I don't think Ted Levine gets enough credit for this amazing performance. You can tell she noticed something was off with Mr. Gordon pretty fast. How he was able to be sane for a few minutes and then go all out was very difficult to convey, but he did it so well. All around amazing movie. Ted Levine is an amazing actor, such range. I love him in this, in Heat, on Monk, especially and in the Hills Have Eyes, he is so versatile.
Ted Levine absolutely nailed it! Huge respect!
@2:41 when the IRS caught me evading taxes
Ted Levine is an incredible Actor. Amazing.
Buffalo bill chuckled, because he knew she was catching on to some thing. I mean you could tell by her demeanor after she has discovered his material. And psychopaths... even though weird as hell, are pretty smart and can sense a lot of things.
They are not always smart
Some of the dumb uncalculated killers are harder for detectives to figure out.
It's great hey? In the book he realises because there's a big moth very nearby and she doesn't even look at it, just looks straight at him... Brilliant writing.
RKKR I don’t get it, what is she catching onto?
sen I have. I just don’t understand
“Oh waittttt”
"Oh, wait. Was she a great big fat person?"
Buffalo Bill certainly had a way with words.
He should've won an award for that role! Man this movie is first class...just this one clip and I forgot where I was...it totally sucks you in!
"As he put the card on the table, the moth flew. It came from behind him, past his head and lit between them, on a cabinet above the sink. He looked at it. When she didn't look at it, when her eyes never left his face, he knew. Their eyes met and they knew each other."
Is that an actual quote from the book? I’ve never read it
Yes, that's correct.
how did he know she didnt look if he was looking at the moth? lol
Paranormal Guitar Channel that's a cold ass quote.
WTF paranormal what are you doing here? Shouldn't you be recording videos of how to annoy guitar center employees?
Its the slow build for me. Right from the moment Clairce sees him, he fits the description, hears his name, same initials as Buffalo Bill, that he's been in the house for 2 years yet it looks well lived in, the sewing equipment, the MOTH. Just the slow realization that she's alone with Buffalo Bill. The acting from Jodie and Ted. Superb stuff. Its no wonder this movie will always be one of the best.
The fact that she just walked into a strangers house without backup has me cackling.🤣The fact that hes Buffalo Bill too😀
her expression at 1:52 when she sees the moth was so relatable. i can feel her fear and got goosebumps thinking about what is going to happen to her in that house with that psycho.
How were camera placement and angles used to create suspense
Yeah I felt the anxiety when she saw the moth, it was the feeling of "One of us isn't gonna make it out of this house alive today"
@@mrteaparty6090did you end up getting a good grade ?
Love the camerawork that hints at the butterfly picture at 1:30 . Also notice the butterfly wallpaper . Excellent.
Great catch
I saw that film so often and i didn't notice that wallpaper. Thanks. This film is great in every meaning: story, script, music, regie, and all actors are very talented and gave their best.
That’s actually a moth.
*🇺🇸🎸ALSO NOTE THE 3' X 4' PHOTO OF SIDESHOW BOBBY PAZUZU ON THE WALL THE "GOD FROM THE EXORCIST MOVIE👹👿💀😵😬👄😱🥊😱🤧🤢*
The way he ran away like a cobra 😂😂😂
I love how little time we spend with Bill, it really adds to what makes this character monstrous and mysterious
who came here because of katya’s impersonation
The house used in the exterior shots in this scene is just down the road from my aunt's home near Dawson, Pennsylvania. It's a surreal sight each time I pass it.
In this scene it was supposed to be in Ohio, right? Like Belvedere or surrounding area?
@@benjaminchen1964 I couldn't get the answer to your question from memory and I don't have access to the movie right now. My best guess is as you're stating; Ohio but probably eastern Ohio. The similarities to western Pennsylvania, where the home used in the exterior scenes were filmed, and eastern Ohio is notable.
You wouldnt be about a size 14 would you?
I’ve been inside the abandoned asylum where they shot the exterior for Lecter’s hospital. Creepy place.
Dat escape maneuver at 2:45
Lol... gay?
Luis Meloni You're gay.
Luis Meloni
He's not gay. It was just something he picked up while he was in Juvenile prison.
+endofscene am I?
Luis Meloni It's possible.
When Hollywood still made great movies.
I think this might be my favorite scene ever filmed in cinema history. Such intense incredible acting. I get shivers every time I see this part.
The music score is sinistre too.
At 2:00-2:08 seconds, the facial expression that Jodie Foster makes directly after she unlatches the holster of her gun.... is an expression of such intensity. Julianne Moore, (a great actress), did not possess this "intensity" that Foster delivered in S.O.T.L. Such an amazing film, but her expression from this clip of the film.....is nothing less than exquisite. Perfection, all the way.
+Travis Petersen
Jodie Foster got this role after Michelle Pfeiffer turned it down.

I liked her expression right after she saw the moth even more
I really love how these movies were shot. Incredible. It's 2020 and i miss this cinematography.
How were camera placement and angles used to create suspense
Do you really love
Tak Fujimoto.
This movie is 97.258% perfection
Its incredible that the basement scene was filmed with the lights on. Foster did an amazing job making me think it was dark.
1:00 The way the camera pans around the outside of the house and the music begins to build suspense is just absolute genius!
Remember what Hannibal said about a room with a view of the water and the drawing overlooking a river?
+kingomar69 Oh, of course. This scene was nicely foreshadowed earlier on in the story!
kingomar69 I NEVER realised!! How did I miss this!?
