Probably my favorite movie from the trilogy. I kind of feel guilty to like Hannibal Lecter, but he's so complex and interesting! But I have to say that the villain of the movie made me really uneasy which shows how good the actor was. I love this movie and the weird relation between Hannibal and Serimg is so intriguing, like a darker version of the Beauty and the Beast.
