In our latest instalment of Page to Screen, Gen and Jette talk about The Silence of the Lambs. We had a great time talking about the classic film and the novel by Thomas Harris to kick off spooky season. It’s easy to see why Hannibal Lecter has captivated people! We’re not saying we like him necessarily, but he’s definitely fun to read about (and watch!)
Show Notes
The Silence of the Lambs film is one of only three to have won all five major awards at the Oscars: Best Picture, Best Director, Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Actor for Anthony Hopkins, and Best Actress for Jodie Foster.
The film is also the only horror film to have won Best Picture.
We’re both ready to dive deep into the Hannibal Lecter canon, including all the books, films, and tv adaptations.
In our next episode we’ll be celebrating our fifth (!!!) anniversary of the podcast!
