Description
USA | 118 Minutes | R | Dir. Jonathan Demme "Jodie Foster stars as Clarice Starling, a top student at the FBI's training academy. Jack Crawford (Scott Glenn) wants Clarice to interview Dr. Hannibal Lecter (Anthony Hopkins), a brilliant psychiatrist who is also a violent psychopath, serving life behind bars for various acts of murder and cannibalism. Crawford believes that Lecter may have insight into a case and that Starling, as an attractive young woman, may be just the bait to draw him out". - Rotten Tomatoes "A movie with this kind of haunting power comes along only once every decade or so". - Susan Wloszczyna (USA Today) Watch the trailer here: https://youtu.be/6iB21hsprAQ?si=GtzeFjSYg12MigRi For information on available assistive content for WUD Film screenings, please visit the Assistive Movie Screenings in the Marquee Theater page .
