Hannibal. Lecter is a classic character created by American writer Thomas Harris, a psychiatrist and ogre with a high IQ.
The film "Silence of the Lambs" made Hannibal a nightmare for many, and a series of subsequent films made this elegant gourmet a synonym for "thriller" in modern Hollywood.

The American drama "Hannibal", which is currently airing its first season, is based on "Red Dragon" in the novel trilogy.
The format of the case is still heavy: deer antlers, human flesh mushrooms, skinned angels... The whole performance art exhibition of a perverted murderer.
However, behind the plots of various psychological terminology analysis, this gloomy and ruthless image of a black-bellied uncle made me, a psychology lover, disappointed.
On the contrary, I miss the image of the dwarfed, but full of evil old man played by Anthony Hopkins in the movie.

Hannibal in this new American drama plays like a calm hunter or a seasoned spy, but without the heart-opening tenderness of a psychiatrist.
The cannibal doctor portrayed by Anthony Hopkins in the movie can bring out his gentle and refined aura to every corner: the
smiling and provocative analytical female detective, who shaped the act of killing and skinning into a totem-like artwork, The cooking skills of liver digging lungs and even eating human brains are elegant and emotional.
This kind of natural elegance perfectly combines the twisted and perverted hobbies, which is the charm of the cannibal doctor's contradiction.
In the TV series, there is only ruthlessness, and even psychoanalysis is as precise and ruthless as a scalpel, without seeing the distorted, lustful human nature.

Unexpectedly, this kind of performance is more popular with laymen. "Variety" and "Entertainment Weekly" all agree that this is a rare masterpiece in recent years.
Maybe Americans still tend to think that only tough guys can be the number one villain and do such unconscionable things. Ha ha.
But how can a cold and rational tough guy show the charming tenderness that Hannibal would rather cut his own arm than hurt the female detective in the movie? ?
