The Silence of the Lambs (1991) Movie Reaction! ☾ FIRST TIME WATCHING 

SOMEONE GIFTED ME A COPY OF STAND BY STEPHEN KING WITH NO NOTE 🥺 whoever that was I want to thank you and I hope you read this comment!!! Really excited to read it 💓💓

Anthony snuck into a theater, after the lights had dimmed & the movie started.....so that he could see for himself how the audience responded to it. He found a seat up in the back....& noticed the lady in front of him was freaking out in all the right spots. At the very end of the film, he leaned forward, touched her on the shoulder & inquired ( in his Hannibal Lector voice )..."Did you liiiike it?" He said she jumped out of her seat & the popcorn & soda went flying.

Your empathy with Clarice when she remembers of her father’s funeral is touching.

It's still the last film to win all 'Big 5' Oscars: Best Picture, Best Director, Best Leading Actress, Best Leading Actor, Best Screenplay

13:12 "Are you hitting on me, doctor?" "Yes." You've got to appreciate his honesty.

I personally think Lector has to be one of the most fascinating villains in a film, he is terrifying even when locked in his cell.

"You fly back to school now, little Starling" That's very clever wordplay, as a starling is a type of small bird.

SO many great little details; His pulse never went up passed 85, even when he ate her tongue. Later, the medic says his pulse is at 84, great bit of continuity!

I love the metaphor of Clarice descending down into a dungeon (hell, basically) and Hannibal seems like the one most comfortable one in it, as if he's the Devil himself. He does seem to rule the place, even going so far as to kill another inmate who offended him and humiliated Clarice.

Barney's job must be insanely difficult: taking care of insane murderers, but doing so while giving them respect and dignity. He's the low-key MVP of this show.

Legend says Clarice is still on the phone saying “Dr. Lecter” to this day

I believe it WON 5 Oscars in 1991, including Best Picture. It is still one of the best thrillers ever made, and unlikely to be surpassed.

At 20:20, you said "I don't understand". This "inability to be understood" is one of the biggest characteristics of human beings in general. Isaac Newton once said "I can very well calculate the position of the stars. But there is no way i can calculate the madness of human beings".

OMG one of the greatest films ever made a true masterpiece The Silence of the Lambs directed by Jonathan Demme starring Jodie Foster, Anthony Hopkins, Scott Glenn and Ted Levine. This film won 5 oscars including best picture, best director for Jonathan Demme, best actress for Jodie Foster and best actor for Anthony Hopkins. The famous line in this film is "A census taker once tried to test me. I ate his liver with some fava beans and a nice Chianti". Thank you so much for reacting this masterpiece just excellent😊👍👍

"Still processing..." Now that was hilarious, especially given the situation, and the look on your face! LOL! 😂😂

Fun fact, Jodie Foster studied in France for a few years and she speaks fluent French. She did the French version of a few of her movies herself.

Please don’t apologize for not saying much. The more you pay attention to the movie the more actual emotion and genuine feelings you have. Great reactions!

I laughed when you saw it was Chilton at the end. "Oh, then it's fine." Everyone thinks the same thing because he totally deserves it. He tormented his patients, manipulated the FBI and was a creeper to Clarice. He was only concerned about HIS power, not in doing the right thing.

your accent when speaking english is wonderful. amazing

Those yellow, self-deprecating captions are the cherry on top of these excellent reactions.

Sir Anthony Hopkins. 16 minutes of screentime. And has an Oscar to show for those 16 minutes.

Good reaction and comments! Like when you in the end said "That's fine" about Lecter eating the warden, I concur.

"I don't mean to be so quiet" Well this is the reactor that I've been looking for. Who pays attention to what they're watching and doesn't talk to much.

One of the rules of visiting Hannibal is you don't pass him any metal objects. Chilton was so excited to have undercut Clarice's deal with Hannibal that he forgot his pen in Hannibal's cell. That's why Hannibal was staring at it while Chilton was talking to him. It shows how stupid Chilton is as well as how Hannibal is always analyzing every move everyone makes around him.

If you like mystery/detective, you should check out SE7EN with Morgan Freeman and Brad Pitt.

Pet Sematary is an extremely heavy novel...on a scary but also on many emotional levels

This movie is the only film to sweep the top 5 Oscar awards - director, actor (male and female), best picture, screenplay

I remember seeing this in the theater with my wife, for me the best part was at the end when he says the line I'm having an old friend for dinner! Loved that

15:36 "I... I thought it was actually a _real_ one. I thought it was a real... deal, a transfer, and everything." We all did, including Agent Starling. And, indeed, there's no reason it _shouldn't've_ been. Dr. Chilton had _no_ reason _not_ to grant Dr. Lecter his _terms._ But he had a pathological need to be petty.

If you enjoy the tone and world of Silence of the Lambs the Hannibal TV show is incredible. The writing, acting, cinematography and storylines are all amazing. Even if you can't watch it for your channel I'd recommend at least checking it out for yourself on your own time. Love the reactions and good luck with your studies.

i love watching your reactions!! also love how u try to figure it out, this makes u stand out ❤️❤️❤️❤️

This is one that I read before I saw the movie and the adaptation stands up pretty good. Not shot for shot, but really captures the essence of the main characters and stays true to the plot.

Thomas Harris also wrote the novels: Red Dragon ( prequel to The Silence of the lambs & Introduction of Hannibal Lecter) Hannibal ( sequel to Silence of the lambs). Hannibal Rising ( about the Young Hannibal Lecter)

Being quiet is the best reaction to have.

Clarice was a new recruit, when they were first letting in women. That's why there are scenes like the elevator, where the men being there, make her seem so out of place, and other scenes where the men just stare at her. We had a saying back then: "A woman has to be twice as good (as a man), to be considered half as good".

The flayed "moth is what Vikings did to their enemies.

Dr. Lecter has an almost superhuman sense of smell. That's how he knows what skin creams and fragrances Clarice uses in this film.

The first ever Horror Thriller to win Best Picture.

One of only three films to win the Oscar for Best Picture, Best Director, Best Screenplay, Best Actor, and Best Actress. The other two are "It Happened One Night" and "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest".

Great reaction! It's worth it to read at least the first three novels in the Hannibal Lecter franchise (Red Dragon, The Silence of the Lambs and Hannibal). This is one of my favorite films. I even bought a first edition of the novel.

A great part is their first meeting, was behind the glass, not in direction or dressing room or stage. So then the first time she saw him behind the glass, she was actually terrified! Many actors here are in Manhunter. Barney is a sheriff, Dr Chilton is an fbi doctor agent, etc.

Hannibal the tv show is a true psychological masterpiece! Mads Mikkelsen is outstanding as Hannibal

I've never subscribed or enjoyed reaction channels, but you have such genuine reactions, and your input is funny or emotional. Great job :)

Hannibal and Red Dragon (2002) also feature Anthony Hopkins as Hannibal. There is also a decent series where Mads Mikkelsen plays the good doctor.

I'm not sure what this says about me but this is my favorite movie of all time. The great acting back and forth between the two of them mesmerizes me every time.

1. The lisping sound Hopkins makes after he says, 'I ate his liver with some fava beans and a nice chianti." is the first scene he and Foster did together and he wanted to freak her out, so her reaction is real. 2. Ted Levine/Buffalo Bill was so disturbing that he received death threats after this was released. 3. The FBI actually let them use their Langley VA facility to film. 4. "I'm coming to get you Murdock". The late Charles Napier/Lt. Boyle played Murdock in Rambo First Blood II. A great first time/share. 5. Everybody is hitting on Clarice but IRL hitting on Foster is a waste of time and effort. She doesn't fly that way. :(

Scot Glen is my favourite character in the film. When Clarice tells him how the male officers look to him for how they should behave towards her, he immediately gets it and sees it through her experience.

My favorite movie ever! One of the very very few that won all 5 major Oscars! Lead actress, lead actor, best picture, directing, screenplay!

What A LOT of people fail to realize is that this movie is actually a sequel and Hannibal is the THIRD movie in the series. Red Dragon is actually a remake of the first movie, Manhunter.

Now you gotta see "Seven" (1995), which isn't a sequel to this, but feels like it could be in the same universe and stars Morgan Freeman from "Shawshank Redemption."

I love how the director/director of photography used many shots straight into the camera. There's a lot of Clarice being stared at by men throughout the movie (even by men who are supposed to be on her side) and the POV makes us feel her discomfort.

The original novel trilogy is "Red Dragon," "Silence of the Lambs," and "Hannibal." later, Harris wrote a prequel "Hannibal Rising." Red Dragon was the first novel filmed, but it was released (in English) under the title "Manhunter." Starred Brian Cox as Lector. Anthony Hopkins first played Lector in the film that you just watched. He became Lector in everyone's minds. So, after doing this film and the third film, they also had him star in a remake of the first film, this time under the correct title. Had to de-age him about 20 years for that, but it was a reasonably good job.

Thank you for doing this reaction!!! Wonderful job!!

There's a T.V. show about the character of Hannibal (named, belive it or nor, Hannibal) wich it's quite recomendable...as long as you can handle disturbing imaginery

Part 2 is called Hannibal part 3 is called Red Dragon. Also The prelude movie is called Man Hunter and stars William Peterson.

OH lord...! You chose a gut-wrenching movie to watch, that's for sure. This movie vaulted Anthony Hopkins to worldwide recognition and fame as Hannibal.

Great reaction. You did edit out a couple of key parts, though. The last time Clarice visited Lecter, when she told the story of the screaming lambs. That really should be in there. Also the reveal where she figured out that Buffalo Bill was making a woman suit out of real women. That really needed to be in there, too. Other than that, I really enjoyed your reaction. Thank you.

I think this may be one of those instances where the movie was better than the book. For instance, in the novel, Dr. Lecter flat-out tells Clarice what Buffalo Bill is trying to create with the pieces of skin he collects; the movie lets Clarice figure that out for herself, which works much better for her character.

I remember as a toddler I saw some girl older cousins watchin this in a room and joined them. At 18:19 they started screaming and one tried to cover my eyes but I could see through her fingers lmao. I stayed kinda shocked for several days

your reactions are always great!!! i love seeing your emotional side!! never apologize for that , you're sweet!! hugsssss!!!

Another film in this style of detective VS. psychopathic serial killer is SEVEN. If you haven't seen that, it stars Morgan Freeman and Brad Pitt. It's one of my personal favorite crime thrillers.

Your reactions always make me happy!!!!!! 😀😀😀

Kamilla if you would like to delve more into the mind of Dr Lechter I would recommend the sequels to this movie Red Dragon and Hannibal

Hi dear Kamilla! May i suggest you a dark, grotesque, mysterious thriller? It's a 1986 movie called "The Name of the Rose", based on a famous book of the same name. It's a murder mystery set in the dark ages. I'd love to know your take on it. It's quite an old movie but definitely worth watching. It stars Sean Connery and Christian Slater. It's one of my favorite movies of the 80's and the novel too is awesome.

I haven't seen that movie for years, must watch it again. Great reaction

Omg yes!..I love this film, Jodie Foster and Anthony Hopkins are freaking amazing in this. Your reactions are both funny and priceless, we need more!

Nice one, Kamilla! I was living in Seattle when this one came out and I saw it in the theater. People were freaking out because they had their own serial killer, The Green River Killer, who had been working the area for several years by then. The movie rattled some nerves!

23:12 The look on Jack Crawford's face when he realizes he got played by Hannibal Lecter. No fame for you, Jack. Hannibal arranged for Clarice to get the credit.

Some tips on this movie are not easy to find out. You are very smart. Great job.

Try 'The Dead Zone' , 'The Medusa Touch' and 'Marathon Man'

I feel like you would REALLY enjoy nbc's Hannibal the TV-show. The latest episode aired in 2015 but it's actually been trending recently since it was added (and then soon removed, smh) to Netflix. Even in a film like this you were looking for a romance and if I was doubtful before, that convinced me you'd really enjoy it. It's a very special show, seriously something I've never seen before and a lot of reaction channels have started picking it up. The best description of Bryan Fuller's (the writer) Hannibal is that it's a seductive melodrama, a psychological horror, toxic relationship masterclass and a poetic forbidden romance. It's filled with references to different works of art and has so many original set designs that could be called pieces of art themselves. Please give it a try!! ❤️ I know I'm not the only one that wants to see more Hannibal on the reaction channel - side of youtube :)

Our church had a "drama group". In a play I played a young woman's subconcious. At certain points of the play the lights would go out on stage and I would turn on a flashlight so that only my face was illuminated. I would then recite my lines. I channeled Anthony Hopkins for my voice character. The second that the play was over our actress bolted from the building. I had creeped her out to no end.

Centrane: possibly the best police drama you'll ever see, is "The French Connection," loosely based on actual events and people, it is a must watch. I hope you'll make time to watch this extrodinary movie. Exceptional acting by Gene Hackman, extrodinary script/screen-play and story. Don't deny yourself from enjoying this incredible movie, you won't regret it!

Funny how every reactor has the same reaction to the end scene. "Oh no Lectar is free and on the loose. Oh wait, he's going to eat Chilton, I'm okay with that."

Great movie, great reaction…I became anxious watching you almost have a panic attack at the end lol

Hannibal drew the Duomo seen from the Belvedere in Florence, Italy and hung it in his cell. Buffalo Bill resided in Belvedere, Ohio. Did he know all along?

The Hollywood Museum has the whole prison corridor where Hannibal was kept, along with a lot of props from the movie, even the chair Clarice sits in which was actually cut down to make her appear smaller compared to Lecter.

Sir Anthony hopkins perfectly fits this character.. the demeanour, the cold stare, brilliance of a top notch psychiatrist who can read minds and ofcourse the indetailed meticulous plans

love your reactions

Yes, this movie was... On a totally different level. When I saw it at the theater, I got physically sick. For "The Stand" look for it on the "Peculiar Pictures" channel. It's here on youtube.

“Don’t let him get into your head” Not to sound rude but he was in her head the moment he asked for her credentials

When i was in highschool me and my buddy had this obsession with buffalo bill, we would constantly reference him and quote him to make each other laugh. We had sort of a dark sense of humour

Manhunter is based on the book “Red Dragon” which is the prequel to The Silence of the Lambs but there’s also a “Red Dragon” movie. So in order of releases there are movies Manhunter, The Silence of the Lambs, Hannibal and Red Dragon. Oh you got the Red Yoshi! 😊

Great reaction to Silence of the Lambs Kamilla and really pleased that you enjoyed it so much, it's one of my all time favourite movies. There is a sequel called Hannibal (2001) which you may find interesting to watch sometime and see what happens next? Keep up the good work Kamilla, your reactions are always really enjoyable and a lot of fun

Eating Liver with Fava beans and a wine like keanti(I know, I misspelled it) could be lethal to consume together.

Anthony Hopkins gets so much credit in this movie, but our girl Jodie Foster has a role that is just as impactful, she does her role so so so well. Hopkins did great in every scene he was in, but Jodie was in almost every scene, and its just as high quality.

Silence of the lambs is the sequel to both a book and a film no one had heard of at the time.

In Finnish the name for this film is "Uhrilampaat" which translates to sacraficial lambs.

Went to see this one when it first came out in theaters February 1991 I remember being very provocative and shocking at the time of its release I was 21 back then now 52

I saw an interview with Jodie Foster and she was scared of Anthony Hopkins, so he is an effective actor. Lol

I can't believe that you only have 8K subs. You should have so much more.

Nice reaction. Saw your video list and see you like science fiction too. Here are some recommendations: "Interstellar" (2014), one of the best sci-fis made and you'll be crying on that one. "Avatar" (2009), just awesome! The "Back to the Future" trilogy, a fun sci-fi. And "Jumanji" (1995) one of Robin Williams best movies, and fun. ✌️😎

Yes Kamilla, it is based of the novels by Thomas Harris. This is the 3rd book in the series. Check out all the movies too. They are in chronological order.. -Hannibal Rising -Red Dragon -Silence of The Lambs -Hannibal

Wonderfully done movie, great cast and taken from a great book. The prequel Red Dragon also had Lecter helping the FBI (Clarice's boss) catch a serial killer. Do love your reactions! Reactions I would love to see, since they are underrated movies like "V for Vendetta", "Brazil" by Terry Gillingham or the wonderful "Master and Commander" with Russel Crowe doing a wonderful job as Lucky Jack Aubrey!

One of my favorites, very disturbing especially the first time watching but I've watched a dozen times since and I appreciate it more each time. A brilliant movie all the way around.

Anthony Hopkins, who played Hannibal Lecter, was only on screen for 16 minutes of this more than 2-hour movie. Amazing. It absolutely doesn't seem that way. Shows you the impact of his performance.

perfect reaction... Love your reaction... You do a great movie reaction, thanks. Love from germany

Next up, Seven (1995), and then Munich (2005).

Great film! I've always thought the ending was a masterpiece.

The first film to feature Lechter was Michael Mann's "Manhunter" (1986), based on the book Red Dragon and starring Brian Cox as Lechter. Excellent film as well. A different take on Lechter.. a bit more grounded, less campy, but still scary for what little screentime he has.
