The dance between rookie FBI agent Clarice Starling and demented serial killer Hannibal Lecter—a shocking mix of attraction and repulsion played out in a claustrophobic space—is a thriller for the ages. Based on the best-selling novel by Thomas Harris, the intensely paced crime thriller swept five Oscars, including wins for Jodie Foster and Anthony Hopkins in the leads. In order to fulfill her assignment to help track down another serial killer, Foster's smart but naive young investigator matches wits with Hopkins's precise, carnivorous psychiatrist. The final chase—set in darkness with the killer wearing night-vision goggles—is a heart-pounding cinematic nightmare.
