REVIEWS:

"[Jodie] Foster...and [Anthony] Hopkins...give exciting
substance to the roles. .... Miss Foster and Mr. Hopkins are
so good, in fact, that Clarice and Hannibal sometimes seem more
important than the mechanics of 'The Silence of the Lambs,'
which is, otherwise, committed to meeting the
obligations of a suspense melodrama."

-- Excerpt from The New York Times; February 14, 1991
