It begins with a movie called Red Dragon, Initially I took it as just another movie on Pshyco Killers or Serial Killers. However, it wasn't what I predicted, the movie was more than it met the eye initially and the plot got me glued till the end. The movie ended but, the effect of one particular character was magical. I was so engrossed by it that I researched on the topic and came up with two more names, the sequels purely focusing on the character that had left me in an awe.
First, The Silence of the Lambs and second, Hannibal and by now no more prize for guessing the character of Dr. Hannibal Lecter, I must say the suaveness and the sharpness of the character is unmatchable. The chilling effect with which he manipulates and gets into the head of his audience was appalling.

The concept of Cannibalism was something new for the audience and the finesse in the character of Hannibal Lecter was refreshing, a perfect anti-hero, who manipulates with the mind of the best assigned to imprison him. The character also portrays a sense of love and compassion yet fierce and horrific ruthlessness.
The very words he spoke had such preciseness and yet had so many hidden meanings, I must say I was impressed by the acting, direction and the eerie feeling. All in all a complete package worth watching.
