'The Silence of the Lambs' at 30

Grab some fava beans and a nice Chianti to help Sophia and Nick celebrate the 30th anniversary of “The Silence of the Lambs”. First, they travel back to the 64th Academy Awards to share their thoughts on how the film accomplished what only two other films have in history, winning The Big 5 at The Oscars (11:23). Next, they dive into the film and discuss some of their favorite chilling scenes (25:28). They also get very close to doing character impressions when they share their favorite quotes (44:07).It’s hard to imagine anyone other than Anthony Hopkins and Jodie Foster in the film, but it turns out other actors came very close to being in these iconic roles (46:09). Finally, they share some of their favorite fun facts from the movie (52:58) and discuss the complicated legacy of Buffalo Bill (57:59).
