FIRST TIME WATCHING - The Silence of the Lambs - Group Reaction 

React on the 2 part Hannibal 2001.

9:08 the women act like that never happened to them before. haha 🤭😜

Right before Dr. Chilton leaves the cell, he says "clean him up and get him ready to go" to the orderly. Which suggests he was released from his restraints and allowed to shower and or change clothes. So that would have been the moment Dr. Lector stole the pen Dr. Chilton left on his bed.😉

25:35 Chilton left the pen in the cell because he's an idiot Also fun fact: The one wall eyed bug scientist is in the book and by the end, him and Clarice start dating

Realistically there's no easy answer for what do when you see something shady just as the women want to get home to their family so do we. Many of us have stopped another man for being creepy or aggressive. But many men and women just stand there recording and yelling for someone else to do it due to crowd psychology. But when you're alone its even more hard to know when. Wish it was easy to know what needed attention and when we could crowd jump someone lol. Men feel fear of dying on the way home unless you have the ego to feel safe in an area you know but if its unfamiliar those types feel far less confident anyway. Women unfortunately have a different layer of fear that's not just death although (in America) that's scarily statistically more likely with someone you know already. So awareness in all life is needed it takes effort to not be afraid of everything yet be aware sadly. PSA Just as a tip men and women please don't think men are invincible they are murdered far more than woman for a few reasons. Even if one might be there to help be ready to fight. We are often raised to help people but women saying they wont help for fear and we should feels dismissive to how risky that mindset becomes with how many men got shot or stabbed. If he goes down you still need to live. EVERYONE needs to carry something even if its a knife some people are actually IMMUNE to pepper spray don't only rely on it I tell my sister the same thing. AND FIGHT DIRTY. Eyes bones anything LIVE! USA has so many guns that you should simply get your own by this point but learn the discipline for when to use it. Too many people whip them out for simple arguments. Of course if just faking being someones friend will save them though we all should do so.

Mickey sometimes makes me want to vote Trump in November lol

Micky is Worng most of the time because he thinks he's a lot smarter than he actually is. But you'll get use to it

Micheal voice: THANK YOU​@@allmightylowercasejay1138

In fairness this movie expertly captures the patriarchal nature and power of the FBI and living “in a man’s world” from the writing to the cinematography. Yes this scene is not one of them, but it’s easy to get caught up in the theme

Clarice's coworkers are condescending jerks more often that not but Clarice objectively performed the exercise wrong

Pretty sure that was his vocal exercise to get him into the southern accent.

I honestly enjoy the series more than both Silence of The Lambs and Red Dragon. Madds is my favorite Hannibal.

Mads is by far the best one imo​@@thechad4485

Characters unrealistically always survive horrific events unfortunately haha still entertaining though

It's a misleading number because they're not counting the moments he's in the scene but not on camera, so he's really in a lot more of the movie than 16 minutes

Hot take I think Madds Mikkelsen is a better Hannibal than Anthony Hopkins but obviously both performances is amazing

such fun

Pro.

That would be so terrifying! Imagine acting in a scene and hearing a loud noise like that, unsure if it's something innocent or if Alec Baldwin has forced his way onto the set to shoot even more helpless people.

When you make a joke, it's supposed to be funny.​@@slowprodigy

@@Varkhal218 Missing the humor gene.

Yeah what was she supposed to do, leave the scene with an armed and extremely dangerous man around + hostage there?

Exactly. She's literally under Oath to do so.

Same rules apply to any law enforcement... They see a crime or something illegal - they need to intervene as soon as possible.

Exactly. Plus she already knows no one's gonna believe her so either she does it alone or lets the killer get away

@@midoriya-shonen Well, come on now, I seriously doubt that if she'd gone and said "I found the killer and the hostage and saw everything" they would've just gone "naah, we don't believe you!" They're skeptical, not idiots.

I think you misunderstood his joke.

💯

And Billy Crystal rolled out wearing a Hannibal Lecter mask to start off the Oscars.

Best actress too !

It didn't win a Supporting award. It's 2 acting award wins were for Lead.

It was the first movie to sweep the main categories since ALL ABOUT EVE in 1950.

@@RolandDeschain1 All About Eve won 6 Oscars - Best Picture, Best Director, Best Screenplay, Best Supporting Actor, Best Art Direction, and Best Sound Recording. It didn't have any nominees for Best Actor, so it wasn't even possible for it to win the Big Five after the nominations were announced. It did however receive four nominations for Best Actress and Best Supporting Actress (two in each category). Pretty sure it's the only film in history to receive four acting nominations for women. There are only three movies in history to win the Big Five Oscars: The Silence of the Lambs (1991), One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (1975), and It Happened One Night (1934). Everything Everywhere All at Once came pretty close, but it fell one short and missed out on Best Actor. It wasn't even possible for it to win the Big Five, because there were no nominees from the film in the Best Actor category. It did however win the Oscars for both Best Supporting Actor and Best Supporting Actress, and is the only film in history to win 6 above-the-line Oscars (Big Five + Best Supporting Actor/Actress), and one of only three films to win 3 out of the 4 acting awards.

It's one of those standard foreshadowing movie lessons that has a pay off later in the film.

A small but essential detail that also adds nuance to Clarice's character. She makes mistakes.

Hence why Chilton is his ideal target. Someone deeply rude, classless, and disrespectful.

I think it’s both. He likes her but you can tell by his manner that he values respect

I thought about it for a long time, why he killed Miggd. He is intrigued by her, but he hasn't decided if he likes her yet. But he wants to talk to her again. But he doesn't do it *for* her, it's not a gift or flirting. He wants her to feel comfortable coming back. He doesn't want her to have to walk past Miggs to again.

It could also be that Clarice never once tried to mislead/lie to hannibal once. She was a straight shooter from the jump, talked with him idk if equal is the right word but she talked with him as a person, and him being a former therapist that probably just did wonders. with the test she asked him straight up although he called her out for asking to early tho. That one agent literally told her if you had an agenda he'd know. Fast forward to the deal" pretty sure she didnt know but i think hannibal knew it was bs and his face could be interpreted as they mofos really tryna play me or damn they really playing you starling to play me.

@@theeLonelyRedPanda Well, she absolutely did lie to him about the offer that she said was from the senator! She even helped make it up - Hannibal called her out on the disease research centre bit being her idea. But I'd say that Hannibal is smart enough to realise that she lied where she had to in order to get her job done, but not about anything that was personal to her. So I suppose he respected that.

It's criminal, that they didn't end that show properly.

@@Rollotomasi79 Given the circumstances, the ending could definitely have been worse. And so they got out of it gracefully. Many series are not so lucky.

Absolutely- the sequels/ prequels are pretty good too. Very enjoyable. The series, great. A couple other psychological thrillers ( with female leads), “The hand That Rocks the Cradle”, “Wild Things”, “Two Days in the Valley”, “Fatal Attraction”, “Basic Instinct “.

It's also WAY more bloody/disgusting than this movie. I personally think it's done well, not just gore for gore's sake, but it has to be said that if this movie made you squeamish at all I think the show will affect you far worse lol

@@JustForTheTunes I fully agree, some of the scenes get.... intense, but they are always thoughtful. One of the things I always like about this series is that they could very easily overdo it, to the point of ridiculousness, and yet the creators managed to maintain balance and intrigue.

Don't know about this scene specifically, however many of the extras in this movie weren't even actors, they were crew who got roped into double-duty. Hopefully they got payed extra for appearing on screen.

Sometimes Siskel’s reviews would make me wonder if he was on something, and what exactly that something was, so that I could avoid it.

I'm pretty sure he hated every classic film that was released when he was around, and praised every middle of the road, forgotten piece of crap he saw. Probably the critic who was the most out of touch with audiences in history.

Ebert was the better critic :)

I'm sure he would have loved Prometheus.

well the director never had success after this and Philadelphia

@@ghostlee6434 I am pretty sure they are aware of the things that Pat says but he says stupid stuff all the time and they can't keep calling him out on every single thing. This will just become a Pat intervention channel instead of a reaction channel in that case

@@adityaagarwal3313 then drop him from fucking reactions, pat is the worst subhuman brainless fucktard ive ever seen

​@ghostlee6434 If they stopped to call out every dumb thing Pat says the videos would be six hours long.

They are just dumb millennials trying too hard to be woke. They have no consistency because it's not their true opinions, they just say what they think they have to say to fit the narrative of their social group. I don't consider any of them particularly intelligent, just pure average joe's.

Agreed Yours, A fellow Michigander

Yep, western Tennessee is part of a Mid, but not Midwest. It’s very much Midsouth.

THANK YOU. I was ready to kick them out of my state when they said that.

I'm pretty sure Pat isn't being serious there. He's being sarcastic. He tends to joke that way in his reactions. It's like how Mikey always giggles before and after he makes a point, and how Rana is super prone to Stockholm syndrome, it's just their thing.

​@@TkOHarley14 no I think he's serious

Pat brain is just...not there

Puns are literally the simplest form of humor LOL

Sorry for being an a-hole here but Pat really is that idiot in the group that would make you shake your own head. I've seen some of this group's reaction vids before and Pat would sometimes always have that one kind of reaction or opinion where you'd start to question why is he even there with them.

Pat is an enabler.

These guys suck bad at this 😂

Yeah, regardless of what anyone might think of him, and his actions, he still earned his doctorate. It’s also a matter of respect, and courtesy, which Dr. Lecter values. He may consider himself above a great many petty things, but he still seems susceptible to some degree of flattery (as long as he detects the proper sincerity behind it). Is he always aware of that susceptibility? Honestly, I’m not sure.

Bug guy was sweet, showed genuine interest in Clarice, and asked her out for hamburgers. In the book it is implied they're dating at the time of her graduation.

Psychiatrist*

she's faking it and overdoing it for idiots like you.

Yeah they dont seem to understand just how bad it is.

"How bad could a rotting corpse be?" Like, literally one of the worst smells on the planet? lmao. It's horrible.

I don't know I think he was always destined to be a character actor/supporting player for the most part. I can't imagine a version of his career where he is a leading man or box office draw. At least he hasn't seemed to have much trouble finding consistent work.

@@williamroper5422 I hear you but you’d think such an iconic pop culture role & performance would’ve resulted in more noteworthy roles. I think a chunk of mainstream audiences were legitimately weirded out by him after Buffalo bill.

TBF, his second most famous role, is as Capt. Leland Stottlemeyer, in the show Monk.

Yeah, absolutely not! That smell stays with you forever.

Yeah, she’s severely underestimating just how rancid death smells. I’d rather smell anything else.

It's still wrong. Every coroner will tell you that. You need all your senses, yes, also your nose, to check the body. In case you notice some special smell that might be important.

@@cherrypi_bthis is true. Wounds are a specialty of mine and it’s amazing how much a few breaths will tell you when you walk in a room or uncover a person. Even so, I still used the Vicks lol. You grow relatively accustomed to the familiar smells and normally almost nothing will bother me whether it’s alive or dead but for a couple of days each month when the hormones are kicking I will happily paint my nostrils and look like a watery eyed coke whore or I know I’ll be nauseous and desperate to hurl the whole time.

​@@cherrypi_b That's why the coroner was the only one in the room who didn't use it. The other people were not specialized in dead bodies.

Saying what somebody should and shouldn’t say on THEIR channel is crazy. You could’ve just explained what you had to say and left it at that

@@ghostlee6434 crazy coming from the person subscribed and giving them viewership which puts money in their pocket. Sounds like you the one kissing ass

Manhunter is such a damn good movie. And the music. Heartbeat by Red 7 is so catchy.

​@@Do0msdayon a cross country trip I stopped at a remote and run down convenience store for food in the wee hours of the morning. As I walked in I thought "if this was a horror movie, the killer would definitely waylay people here." Then I walk in and "Inagaddadavida" was playing. I didn't run but I watched my back while I got food lol.

​@@j.f.fisher5318gotta watch your back so someone doesn't jump through the glass window haha

I know the TV show Clarice is after Silence of the lambs, is it after Hannibal as well? I haven't watched Hannibal recent enough to remember anything of it.

Yes! I wanted to comment but figured it would be futile but yes ST knows its horror and pays homage to the best!

The scene with Loki and Black Widow in Avengers is heavily inspired by this

I grew up in Memphis, so I had to laugh.

Holy crap that is Stick 😂 idk how I never noticed that

that show is terrifying, made me paranoid about secret murderers everywhere

For that matter, Memphis is pretty much the definition of Midsouth.

@0okamino I wouldn't even say that. It's mid east if anything. Tennessee sits entirely on the eastern half of the United states. Multiple states lie to its north and south so I can't even say that Tennessee sits in the deep south.

@@svenskhund3603 However, enough other people _would_ say that, for it to actually be considered the anchor of the midsouth. I wasn't saying that baselessly.

I know, right? Weirdly enough, Hannibal is the only one who doesn't come off like that, because he seems to respect her

@@davidshi451 The close ups on Hannibal's face was also unsettling imo, but the was they shot the other men was just creepy

It’s just a POV shot, they shoot her roommate and other women the same way too. The only guy that was being creepy towards her was Chilton. You guys have some unresolved issues.

​@@arafat9828yeah, we're not supposed to sympathize with Hannibal just because he respects her while we are supposed to condemn the others just because they seem creepy.

grizzled wizard mentioned that too iirc

He's had a few scary roles but this one stands out. "Magic" is probably his second best scary role and it lags pretty far behind - although his voice work for the ventriloquist dummy is pretty cool.

Was worse for Ted Levine as Bill. It killed his entire career. Same thing happened to Geoffrey and Malfoy. They nuked their career by being too good in a particular role.

+ The prequel "Hannibal Rising" in 2007. Michael Mann "Manhunter" is a good adaptation of the Red Dragon novel, also

You're right chronologically, but (sticking with just the Hopkins franchise), Red Dragon is after Hannibal in release order. For this specific franchise, I feel like it's better to watch in that order. Although obviously read the books in order.

Hannibal the TV show is a prequel to everything else.

@@jenk4545 Due to it being set prior to Hannibal being arrested, yes. However several of the stories of the TV show are "remixes" of the various books and do not follow the books chronologically (for instance they adapted large parts of the book "Hannibal"). The alterations are due to the fact that the studio that owns the rights to the Clarice Starling character (and SotL) didn't want to play ball.

you can tell they've never smelled rotting meat

I scrolled down to make sure someone commented on this. My stomach hurt at her reaction! I had to watch it several times.

And Red Dragon is a remake of Manhunter.

Played by Brian Cox who also played Logan Roy

@@caylincoleman8758 Very true. He plays the character completely differently.

Yeah I couldn’t help but roll my eyes at that statement it’s so dumb

Manhunter is the best version of that story. Brian Cox chilling as Lecter.

Girl, this is a thriller. Zodiac is not a horror movie...

​@@Square-ow7oqnews flash: thrillers can also be horror. Not all serial killer thrillers are horror, but when it involves fictional cannibals, that's a very specific subgenre of horror.

@BJMurphy i saw your other condescending comment. And idk why you want so bad to call this a horror film. Maybe because you like the genre and this movie is so prestigious, you want so bad to the genre to be validated or something. Horror is my favorite genre, but this is not a horror movie. This is a thriller. News flash, Having a cannibal is not an automatic way to classify a movie as horror. Bones and All is not a horror film.

This is definitely way more of a thriller than a horror movie. Having cannibals does not automatically turn it into a horror movie, it just makes it a thriller where a central character is a cannibal.

I love her but easily one of the dumbest things Navi has said.
