The Silence of the Lambs

Published: Jan. 31, 2023, 4 p.m.

"Hello Clarice..." "I ate his liver with some fava beans and a nice Chianti." So many great lines from this film based on the book written by Thomas Harris, with the film starring Anthony Hopkins and Jodie Foster. You can watch this film for free on Tube, Pluto, or Roku, so check it out if you haven't watched it yet. The film synopsis is: a young F.B.I. cadet must receive the help of an incarcerated and manipulative cannibal killer to help catch another serial killer, a madman who skins his victims.
