Overview

Retired FBI profiler Will Graham nearly died the last time he got close to Hannibal Lecter. Now, with a brutal new killer leaving bodies across the country, Graham has to walk back into that prison cell and ask the man who almost killed him for help. Brett Ratner's 2002 prequel to Silence of the Lambs leans hard into the psychological cost of that arrangement, with Anthony Hopkins and Edward Norton sparring across glass and ego.
