=========================================
I am the Dragon. And you call me insane.
I don’t know about the novel (yet), but I am positive this is hell of a lot better movie than Manhunter (1986). First and most important of all, the script is far better. It’s pretty much the same story, with many scenes and even some lines copied exactly, but it’s told with flair and attention to detail sorely missing in the original movie. Admittedly, sometimes it’s a bit too much; a few scenes come off talky and just a little too long. But with a cast like that, it pays off to have the characters and the relationships fully fleshed out. Lecter-Graham is one of the strangest friendships out there, exceeded only by Lecter-Starling. Anthony Hopkins was born to play Hannibal the Cannibal: it’s not even possible to consider anybody else in the role; if is he is less chilling here, it is because he is less prominent and we are somewhat used to him from The Silence of the Lambs (1991). It’s a sinister show anyway, rather overshadowing a fine performance from Edward Norton. Then there is the Dolarhyde-Reba duet, one of the strangest romances out there. Ralph Fiennes, with the finest back tattoo in his stellar career, all but grabs the movie and runs away with it. This is a different kind of madness than Hannibal’s, less innate and less irredeemable, but in many ways equally frightening. Emily Watson is touching as the blind Reba who, as Graham rightly says, reaches whatever human is left in Dolarhyde. All in all, while in places somewhat slow, this is an exciting and suspenseful movie, relentlessly working towards a thrilling finale. It makes Manhunter look like a forgotten homework from Michael Mann’s years in the film school. (
