Hannibal Lecter is kinda a big deal with me. I had no interest in seeing Silence of the Lambs despite the fact that everyone at school was talking about it in the Staff Room. I hate the kind of movie they were talking about. I had no interest in having my nightmares stocked full of images that I would never forget. It did seem like the film transformed everyone I was working with at the time.
But those were the days of living in the far Canadian north and I didn't want the movie to leave town without me seeing it. I went. I was horrified but freaking delighted to be THAT terrified and impressed with a character all at the same time. I hated how much I admired Lecter for his escape and how he remained so arrogant while doing it.
