Sometimes you forget just how damn good something is:
'Silence of the Lambs', Criterion bluray.
Haven't seen it for years, so put it on last night. Still packs an almighty punch. That whole sequence when Lecter escapes from the 'cage' is stunning.
Noticed a few things this time, mainly how many times Starling is 'ogled' by men. In a couple of scenes she is literally surrounded by men, their size vs hers emphasised.
Great stuff, a true 5/5 for me.
