“In the end I let them go, as you must let characters go, let Dr. Lecter and Clarice Starling decide events according to their natures. There is a certain amount of courtesy involved.”

— Thomas Harris (via decreasing-entropy)

THE SILENCE OF THE LAMBS | WHAT WE DO IN THE SHADOWS

This is an update of my original post. (Hannibal is part Italian so I'm counting it because it's funny.)

The Silence of the Lambs (2/14/1991)

[memorypalace-observer]

Y’know how in Hannibal 1999 Dr Lecter and Clarice Starling run away together?

Yeah, that was pretty great.

The only fandom that doesn't need fanfiction to fix the ending 🤩

[memorypalace-observer]

Oh y’know

I forgot about this part

I need a minute 🤧

[fabiana-walles]

Oh, one of my favorite moments between them. His whole speech is great. And the way she returned empty handed.

[userlecter]

It's true, I will not ever get over it and life does not go on. I will die hating this show.

I truly wish I had the ability to completely disregard the book characters and enjoy the show like other people but I just can't. It's so bad.

[fabiana-walles]

You know, the problem with this show isn't just that it does a terrible job with canonical characters and events. The show is simply bad.

And I never even expected it to be good, I always had a feeling there'd be nothing in it from real psychiatry or investigation; I knew it'd be an empty pretentious show that makes people believe they're intellectuals for watching it. I expected it to have homophobia, queerbating, misogyny (even if I didn't know all the right terms at the time), because a lot of mainstream shows in 2010s were like that.

so he goes like:

then she reacts like:

AND YOU'RE TELLING ME THEY AIN'T THE TRUE OTP?

[userlecter]

You left out the best part...

"P.S. Don't bother to flip through, there isn't anything else."

Once again, a man tells Clarice "don't," therefore she must "do".

[fabiana-walles]

I bet he knew she wouldn't just trust his word.

He probably played this whole scene in his head while writing her a note. And he enjoyed it.

I think they both did.
