This block will stay here, I am going to leave this post here and then change out the movie plot details below. This page will get outdated as far as posts go, but will have a new movie each week (or at least I am going to try and do one a week). You can stream older movies on places like Fandago but they don’t have all the titles and some are really hard to find. You could go to the library and get the DVD and watch these older movies but then you run the risk of the copy being scratched and well not working that’s what happens when you lend things out to anybody. So yeah this change, I may update the date on the post so that you will be able to see when I have a new movie to watch.
Hannibal
Ten years after the death of serial killer Jame Gumb and the escape of cannibalistic serial killer Hannibal Lecter,[a] FBI Special Agent Clarice Starling is blamed for a botched drug raid that resulted in five deaths.
The event attracts the attention of Mason Verger, Lecter’s only surviving victim. A wealthy child molester, Verger was paralyzed and disfigured by Lecter and has been scheming to torture and kill him ever since. Using his wealth and political influence, Verger has Starling reassigned to Lecter’s case, hoping her involvement will draw out Lecter from hiding. He is aided by corrupt Justice Department official Paul Krendler, who is upset that Starling refused to sleep with him.
After learning of Starling’s disgrace, Lecter sends her a letter; he is hiding in Florence under the false identity of library curator “Dr. Fell.” A perfume expert identifies the fragrance on the letter: skin cream with unusual ingredients available in only a few shops. Krendler sexually propositions Starling again, implying that he can save her career, but she rebuffs him.
Florentine policeman Rinaldo Pazzi questions Lecter about the death of Dr. Fell’s predecessor. When Starling asks Pazzi for a local fragrance shop’s security footage, Pazzi realizes Dr. Fell is Lecter. To claim Verger’s $3 million bounty for Lecter, Pazzi agrees to help Verger’s men kidnap Lecter without police involvement. However, Lecter subdues Pazzi and forces him to confess. Lecter then disembowels Pazzi and hangs him from the balcony of the Palazzo Vecchio.[b]
Verger bribes Krendler to frame Starling for hiding evidence against Lecter, leading to her suspension. Lecter summons Starling to Washington Union Station, where he encourages her to quit her job. However, Verger’s men trail Starling and capture Lecter. Starling infiltrates Verger’s estate, where she learns that Verger intends to feed Lecter alive to a herd of purpose-bred giant forest hogs. She frees Lecter from the boar pen but a guard shoots her. Lecter saves the wounded Starling from being attacked by the boars by picking her up and standing still, as the boars devour the bleeding guards. Verger orders Cordell, his physician, to shoot Lecter, but Lecter offers to take the blame if Cordell kills Verger instead. Cordell, who dislikes Verger, shoves him into the pen, where the boars eat him alive. Lecter carries an unconscious Starling to safety.
Starling awakens in Krendler’s home, wearing an unfamiliar cocktail dress. Although Lecter has sedated her and Krendler, she has the presence of mind to call the police. She then finds Lecter preparing an elegant dinner, during which Krendler lobs misogynistic insults at her. He then insults Lecter’s cooking. Lecter opens Krendler’s skull, removes part of his brain, sautés it, and feeds it to Krendler. Although Lecter hopes to impress Starling by torturing her oppressor, she is horrified and attacks Lecter, but he overpowers and kisses her. She handcuffs their wrists together. Hearing the police arrive, Lecter raises a cleaver over her wrist, seemingly ready to maim her. However, the film cuts to Starling raising her hands, both intact, to meet the police. On a flight, Lecter, his arm in a sling, shares a piece of Krendler’s brain with a curious boy, saying it is important to “try new things.”

Obviously my interests include philosophy. I think thinking and thought are the beginning of every great thing. It’s how we understand and perceive the world. Periodically I’ll change things up and blog about something math or computer science related or even a blog about mythology. I am not political, trendy, or savvy, but I do like a good story. That is why I try and find a movie clip that hints or encompasses what I want to blog about. Sometimes the relevance is there, sometimes it’s a reach and I just really love the movie that I put in the post. The intent and purpose of my blog is to make you think, make me think and together our thoughts can be shared in a collection of material.
