Trivia:
While Lecter injects himself with sodium thiopental, he plays Johann Sebastian Bach's "Goldberg Variations" in the background, the same music that plays during his escape in The Silence of the Lambs (1991). The recording was made in 1955 by Glenn Gould. In the other movies featuring Hannibal Lecter, Gould's 1981 recording is used. moreGoofs:
Continuity: When the soldier pulls out the dog tag from Dortlich's mouth and examines it, he has no glove on his right hand, but when he turns around to examine the fire pit he removes a glove from his right hand. moreQuotes:
[first lines]Hannibal 8yrs: Hide quickly! Run away! Quick! This way! Quickly! Down to the lake.
[giggling, drawing on dock]
Hannibal 8yrs: M... for Mischa.

Well, no Anthony Hopkins so I didn't expect greatness, but was pleasantly surprised. Gaspard Ulliel did a very good job and has a wonderful look about him. I was caught up in the story about how Hannibal got started. To give an idea of my opinion so you know where I'm coming from, I think Anthony Hopkins is one of the greatest actors of our time and he was brilliant as Hannibal. That being said, I was reluctant to see this. However I can now say I'm hoping for more. The movie was done very professionally. They are saying this is the best since Silence of the Lambs. I now believe them although I did like Hannibal better than most. I don't want to give too much away, just believe me it's worth the time to see it. Just don't expect Anthony Hopkins. Keep in mind this is Hannibal at a much younger age. Go into it with an open mind.
