When Anthony Hopkins takes a break in between takes of Silence of the Lambs, he gets snacky. The director, Johnathan Demme, knows what he likes, so he feeds him French fries. This is how movie friendships work. It’s weird seeing Hannibal Lecter in his famous mask having a little fun. We’re so used to being terrified by the character that it lightens the mood a little bit. Then again, maybe that’s a child’s finger that he’s being fed. Maybe Lecter was being good while he was being transported so Demme decided to give him a treat.
