Silence of the Lambs
Jonathan Demme’s elegantly terrifying thriller was one of those rare beasts capable of satisfying both the recherché leanings of the Academy as well as the wild and wooly demands of grindhouse audiences. Anthony Hopkins is hypnotic as Hannibal Lector, the erudite cannibal with a taste for Chianti, and Jodie Foster is masterful as Clarice Starling, the green FBI agent whose knotty relationship with Lector turns deeper than she bargained for.
