This scene gave me chills, the lighting isn't a gimmick, it isn't rushed. It's Hannibals glimpse into the inferno, a look at the internal wreckage of an emotionally and mentally shattered human being. The drawing analysis was a beautiful touch, the signs of someone who can't cope with what they've endured... it's absolutely chilling.
When a psycho killer gets into the head of another psycho killer and feels his part of justification of his wrong doings the natural reaction is tears through eyes. Wow greatly portrayed by Sir Antony Hopkins.
Only he brando pacino in the godfathers & jack in the shining just command yr attention. Last film ever to sweep the top 5 & as great as the writing & foster are direction w/o hopkins which is only 16 min which is astounding btw to win best actor.
I don't like the background light but Sir Hopkins monologue is just amazing showing some kind of empathy for Buffalo Bill, you can feel the sympathy on his voice. Well, that is for sure a Super-duper-duper-duper-duper-duper moment.
In a way, I'm glad this was not in the final cut-it's too overwhelming and powerful. The climax of the movie, for me, at least the emotional climax, is Starling's revelations about the screaming lambs. Lecter sheds a tear there, and I think he should only shed a tear once. That was the moment for it. This scene features some fantastic acting, but all this emotion and sympathy, the only time he expresses it, has to come out of his relationship with Starling, whom he loves. If he loves anyone.
He have tears on his eyes not because of sentimentalism about what he is telling, but because he was with his eyes open without blinking in the whole scene, try to do the same and you will see your eyes will start to tear.
This and also they didn't want him to give too much information, he was manipulating Agent Starling to get what he wanted. If they included this, it shows a weakness which may make him vulnerable to being used instead. Quid pro quo, Clarice.
Yeah, the acting was decent, but this made Lector seem less in control with his emotions than the rest of the film implied. The character is manipulative, but stoic. It's better if he is passionate in his communication but unperturbed by the implications.
Instead of sympathy for Jame Gumb I think Hannibal's describing his own internal pain as he can empathise with elements of Gumb's life being similar to his.
It's interesting to read some of these comments claiming he was "too emotional" in this scene, and that's why they cut it. Read the books, people! He's neurotic as hell!
I think what makes Lector so scary is not only is he beautifully eloquent and intelligent but in a frightening way he's oddly likable. A masterpiece of a film
I love that these deleted scenes are available for us to watch, but I can see why they were cut. Both have a different flow that seems out of place, although it might be different with the soundtrack to match the mood. The second scene in which Hannibal is basically telling Clarice the info she needs, feels REALLY out of place; the rest of the movie he's made her work everything out herself. They're brilliant scenes on their own, and all Clarice/Hannibal scenes are amazing, but they'd feel odd if they were left in.
Dylan Hatfield You can see it takes Anthony Hopkins awhile to re-emerge from underneath Hannibal Lecter's personality. I'm betting that if you had placed a dish with raw human hearts in front of him then, he would have gobbled them up without a second's hesitation.
It doesn't seem like him, which is why it is so powerful and climactic when Starling's story of the screaming lambs moves him to tears. That is the true payoff for this character and it could only be in that context. Starling's haunted pain resonates somewhere inside of him, and more deeply than the pleasure he receives from sucking the pain out of others, like the Senator. Shortly after this, he drew a portrait of Starling holding a lamb like Mary held Christ; he orders lamb for dinner, extra rare.
@@darkprose I thought that myself that when clarice told him her childhood story about the lamb that it actually for a second made him seem human! Perhaps he looked upset because he actually deeply DEEPLY loves clarice and would kill anyone who would harm her or even take her away from him.
It's a very beautiful scene, the acting from them both is sublime, and I mean that in the truest sense of the word; they both touch on something that transcends. It's one of my favourite scenes in cinema. Silence of the Lambs is a love story in a lot of ways, I think it has more in common with Lost In Translation than it does with the likes of Seven or other thrillers.
this is interesting but I can see why they cut it it seems a little bit rushed and carnivalesque. I mean more so than the rest of the film. in other words the tone seems off. in fact this wasn't so much cut as reshaped
This scene was freaky enough when it transitioned into Dr Chilton's recording the conversation. The dialogue would've been fine if Lecter hadn't sounded so emotional in this take.
Nobody commands snyones prescrnse like this other than hopkins. Once he exits hes so missed. The only other people who have commanded the audience were pacino & brando in the godfather & jack in shining. Whats anazing is hopkins was finished w/ movies until hos agent sent him the script
I don't know, but I swear that the first time I saw this film, in their first meeting Hannibal welcomes her saying "Hello Clarice" and Clarice looks petrified. Or is it me?
Yeah I thought so too, but it makes sense that he _wouldn't_ say that, because he doesn't actually know her at all she's just a random visitor at first.
he has always said "good morning." it is not the mandela effect anymore than 'luke i am your father" being the correct statement - people are fallible and incorrectly remember things. enough idiots in the media repeat the error, and here we are 28 years later with "hello clarice" still being incorrectly quoted.
Most people mistakenly recall his first line as "Hello, Clarice". But if you think about it, for a first encounter, this greeting would be entirely too casual and intimate for someone like him. I think maybe the "Hello, Clarice" line is heard in the final scene, on the phone.
DeathCreationist I wouldn't have. It would be neat to see how different stimuli affect Lecter's passions. To see him tear up over imagining Billy's childhood mindset would be an intriguing nuance.
Lietiel I feel if they showed that it would destroy Lecter's image. make him look weak and vunerable, therefore he wouldn't show it. Hannibal wouldn't give a fuck about Billies childhood one bit, after seeing the movies and reading the books, he doesn't care lmao. no emotion- no weakness.
DeathCreationist But he is vulnerable. He's just very guarded about it. In the books, there are a few instances where he breaks down and screams over the memory of his sister Mischa. Will Graham points out that passion is one of Lecter's two weaknesses (the other being his egotistical need to be the smartest person in the room). And Thomas Harris himself states that Clarice has the ability to frighten Lecter, indicating that the Doctor's emotional complexity involves vulnerability. I doubt that Lecter would consciously show his weaknesses to others, but his weaknesses are there nevertheless. He simply represses them and armors himself with detachment.
The writing in the first part was not as good as the other scenes, and the parts with the same lines that ended up in the movie were better in the scenes that that chose. I’d say good choice to cut these.
I can tell why these scenes were cut; they don't gel with Lecter's reptilian demeanor throughout the rest of the movie. His performance here heralds the campy interpretation of Lecter Hopkins used in the sequel, Hannibal.
Incredible acting. Hopkins embodies the character fully, and at the drop of a hat. But I can understand why they cut it out. His performance might well have proven too strong in the over all arch of the film. It worked better with reduced appearances from him.
@@basedbarackobama I actually agree. There are way too many people, including people I know who thought they were trans as teens, but then realized they aren't. People don't realize they need to wait to be sure
![[ASMR] hannibal lecter cooking](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/lOIZmoOhJik/mqdefault.jpg)
Anything with Hannibal in it, should not be cut from a movie lol.
he won an Academy Award, regardless :D
DeathCreationist ikr !!!!
Actually if you are filmmaker you need to learn to cut your darlings.
The Manhunter truee

read the original script? :) it's very faithful
So true brother
legends has it he still is saying "duper" to this day
Not anymore.
When a psycho killer gets into the head of another psycho killer and feels his part of justification of his wrong doings the natural reaction is tears through eyes. Wow greatly portrayed by Sir Antony Hopkins.
Portrayal, Anthony Hopkins IS THE TRUE Hannibal Lecter
He knows the pain.
Only he brando pacino in the godfathers & jack in the shining just command yr attention. Last film ever to sweep the top 5 & as great as the writing & foster are direction w/o hopkins which is only 16 min which is astounding btw to win best actor.

Super-duper-duper-duper-duper-duper...
Tyler Parke 🤣
and yet the re-did this scene lol
But, we're going to cut it from the final film...
That should've been in the movie
Notice he does Not blink. Ever. For almost 3 minutes.
He also has eye drops in his eyes, note how watery they are.
Sir Anthony Hopkins is a legend
In a way, I'm glad this was not in the final cut-it's too overwhelming and powerful. The climax of the movie, for me, at least the emotional climax, is Starling's revelations about the screaming lambs. Lecter sheds a tear there, and I think he should only shed a tear once.

Joseph Charles agree but Hannibal isnt one dimensional. He can love many.
He have tears on his eyes not because of sentimentalism about what he is telling, but because he was with his eyes open without blinking in the whole scene, try to do the same and you will see your eyes will start to tear.
Yam Delgado his speech was rather sentimental though.
This and also they didn't want him to give too much information, he was manipulating Agent Starling to get what he wanted. If they included this, it shows a weakness which may make him vulnerable to being used instead. Quid pro quo, Clarice.
Yeah, the acting was decent, but this made Lector seem less in control with his emotions than the rest of the film implied. The character is manipulative, but stoic. It's better if he is passionate in his communication but unperturbed by the implications.
That last part was very disturbing. Anthony was so frighteningly believable as Lecter.
I could watch this again for ten hours and be entertained.
Instead of sympathy for Jame Gumb I think Hannibal's describing his own internal pain as he can empathise with elements of Gumb's life being similar to his.
Agreed, thinking back to his own hellish childhood
Until this time...I never thought there were deleted scenes from The Silence of the Lambs.
Now it makes sense. All the holes in logic and plot are all cleared up.
It's somehow terrifying watching Hannibal get teary eyed
never seen this - absolutely fascinating
Beautiful scene!!
Well, that second part was fucking terrifying
Haha - that made me belly laugh! It freaked me out too, and I was watching it in the dark!
terry fying lol
2:38 What an instant and strong transformation!..
It's interesting to read some of these comments claiming he was "too emotional" in this scene, and that's why they cut it. Read the books, people! He's neurotic as hell!
Ugh, I love the books. They're so good. Hannibal is like the definition of emotional, he just repressed it
2:40 Love how A. H. is so into character that it takes him a moment to go back, from being Hannibal to being Anthony again.
“Super super duper duper duper”
He's so good as Hannibal, I'd be afraid to criticize his performance for what he might do to me.
Amazing acting describing Buffalo Bill
I think what makes Lector so scary is not only is he beautifully eloquent and intelligent but in a frightening way he's oddly likable.
A masterpiece of a film
I love Anthony Hopkins whenever he's in this type of role but boy does he scare the $#^! out of me sometimes...
Still love the character & movie. The books are great reads also.

I've been listening to the audio book of this and it's awsome!!
Nothing of lecter should be deleted
Wow. That was intense
Nunca tendría que descartar esta escena...Tony lo mejor del mundo
Este monólogo lo indica❤
shame they cut it. Most of that was right from the book. esp about the tree.
I can see why they cut it, he showed a flicker of emotion and longing, that is not within the character of Hannibal Lecter
It doesn't seem like him, which is why it is so powerful and climactic when Starling's story of the screaming lambs moves him to tears.

Good point.
"No names Clarice, no names" No Title by Kool&The Gang
He is an AMAZING actor and i wish they chose this instead of the one from the movie. More in dept for sure.
Because secretly I'm wrong about crime too..
Those scenes would have been great to have.
OK yeah, cut out the best parts of the movie. Got it.
Thank YOOOOU! I make videos about certain fandoms like this on my channel and this is gonna be a great help xx
This scene was freaky enough when it transitioned into Dr Chilton's recording the
conversation. The dialogue would've been fine if Lecter hadn't sounded so emotional
in this take.
That was so creepy
1:27 It’s like he’s not behind glass.
.....................................................holy shit.
1:00 handsign
Ikr
super duper duper duper duper
Is it just me or is she is stunningly beautiful
Nah, she's perfect
I want to see those drawings now
Nobody commands snyones prescrnse like this other than hopkins. Once he exits hes so missed. The only other people who have commanded the audience were pacino & brando in the godfather & jack in shining. Whats anazing is hopkins was finished w/ movies until hos agent sent him the script
Anyone else think this is kind of similar to the opera scene in 'Philadelphia', also directed by Jonathan Demme?
How odd, I see both of them in the shot here. I don’t remember them being in a shot together.
That second scene...
Clarice Clarice Clarice Clarice
No names, no names))
yo, those tears in his eyes?
That last scene was haunting, why would they leave it out?
I don't know, but I swear that the first time I saw this film, in their first meeting Hannibal welcomes her saying "Hello Clarice" and Clarice looks petrified. Or is it me?
It's called the mandela effect
Yeah I thought so too, but it makes sense that he _wouldn't_ say that, because he doesn't actually know her at all she's just a random visitor at first.
he has always said "good morning." it is not the mandela effect anymore than 'luke i am your father" being the correct statement - people are fallible and incorrectly remember things. enough idiots in the media repeat the error, and here we are 28 years later with "hello clarice" still being incorrectly quoted.
Most people mistakenly recall his first line as "Hello, Clarice". But if you think about it, for a first encounter, this greeting would be entirely too casual and intimate for someone like him. I think maybe the "Hello, Clarice" line is heard in the final scene, on the phone.
CLARICE SHOULD'VE PLAYED TO OLD HANNY-BOY'S EGO, AND TOLD HIM SHE WAS AFRAID OF HIM!!!!!
more like altered scene :(
The fuck was this cut for tget filmed the part where lecter specifys jame gumps drawings wow i tough this only existed in the novel wow
greatest comedy of the 90's - TSOTL
Was Hannibal crying? If so why
Anthony, not Hannibal. His eyes teared up because he just finished staring into a camera for about a minute and twenty seconds without blinking.
Interesting, do you think they would have edited out the tears?
DeathCreationist I wouldn't have. It would be neat to see how different stimuli affect Lecter's passions. To see him tear up over imagining Billy's childhood mindset would be an intriguing nuance.
Lietiel I feel if they showed that it would destroy Lecter's image. make him look weak and vunerable, therefore he wouldn't show it. Hannibal wouldn't give a fuck about Billies childhood one bit, after seeing the movies and reading the books, he doesn't care lmao. no emotion- no weakness.

how the fuck do you go that long without blinking?
Why was this cut?!
Why Jodie didn't make it in the sequel?
So I made George to reborn 2011 in Viena not sure he liked it neither me. As that made him loose a feeling of security about life
Incredible acting. Hopkins embodies the character fully, and at the drop of a hat. But I can understand why they cut it out. His performance might well have proven too strong in the over all arch of the film. It worked better with reduced appearances from him.
I wish he was my husband
that would make you wife no 4. sir anthony is as much a lover as a drinker. dracula got nothing on him.
There you have it, Hannibal saying transgenderism is a mental disease. 😂
If yoi actually watched the movie you'd know that buffalo bill was never transgender, he just thought he was.
@@sakuwagtail8743 just like almost all modern "transexuals"
@@basedbarackobama I actually agree. There are way too many people, including people I know who thought they were trans as teens, but then realized they aren't. People don't realize they need to wait to be sure
He said Buffalo Bill isn't trans at all, just hates his own skin so much and envies that of women, that he'd like to be reborn into a woman's skin.
COULD CHUCK NORRIS HAVE BEATEN HANNIBLA LECTOR IN A FIGHT?????????
"As a united states senator...?
Too Sinister
This is garbage writing.
Right!
