 Jack Crawford (FBI) - RecipeFacts   (Site not responding. Last check: )
He had retired after being attacked and nearly killed by Lecter, a Baltimore psychiatrist who had helped the FBI on several occasions, after Graham intuited that he was the serial killer he sought.
All of Gumb's victims had been large women, so her suspicions were aroused when Gumb asked if Bimmel was "a great big fat person." Upon stepping inside, she saw a Death's Head moth like the ones that Buffalo Bill stuffed into his victims' throats, and realized she had found the killer.
Crawford was offended by the gesture and momentarily lost his trust in Starling, thinking, incorrectly, she had told Lecter about his personal life.

 Julianne Moore as Clarice Starling in Hannibal
Clarice's empathy is that of the dead grieving for the dead.
Clarice is no longer the West Virginia rube who Hannibal dismissed as "poor white trash." In the contours of Moore's keenly focused and sexually charged performance, Clarice is ready for any predator.
With Lecter less terrifying and Starling less vulnerable around the edges, there is hardly any reason to worry that anything bad will happen to her, a diminished fear that she'll be overmatched by the most horrific things imaginable.

Starling is an autonomous woman; her mother died at childbirth, and her father was killed in the line of duty when he was ten.
By depicting Starling as an object rather than a person in certain scenes, the audience is transposed with her, and feels her apprehension.
Starling stands out even further as an object because her blue sweat suit contrasts with the loud red outfits that each of the men are wearing.

Peepers is on a good diet (same as y'all have posted and the usual diet as we use at the wildlife center), is eating well (fed every 45 minutes; about 1.5 cc's normally and pooping well) and I plan to start him/ her on insects and fruit in another week or so.

 Hannibal movie review on AudioRevolution.com
It was utterly engrossing because we became truly involved with Starling and regarded Lecter with the FBI agent’s sense of guarded fascination.
In "Hannibal," Starling is a much simpler character, a good woman and a good cop being assaulted by several different kinds of badness.
Moore is coolly focused as the capable Starling and Liotta is superbly smarmy as a supervisor who raises harassment to new levels.

 Hannibal
Thus we learn not just that Starling drives a Mustang, but that it is a "5.0-liter Mustang with steel tube headers." The car is cataloged as it pulls into her parking lot at the end of a long day.
Harris emphasizes that Mapp and Starling had "both had crushes on [John] Brigham when he was gunnery instructor at the FBI Academy." Brigham died in the shoot-out, and Starling is about to be blamed for it (I don't remember if Brigham is a character carried over from the earlier novels in the trilogy).
In any case, Starling goes to the now abandoned hospital, and we have a scene reminiscent --nay, replicating -- the one in the first in which she goes to a storage unit and gives the guardian a number to call if she doesn't come back soon.

 Mystery Guide - The Silence of the Lambs by Thomas Harris   (Site not responding. Last check: )
Clarice Starling is a young, ambitious FBI trainee who is pulled out of school by her boss to go on a special assignment.
It is unclear whether Starling is picked because of her background in psychology, or because her boss thinks that she might be charming enough to Lecter that he will say more than he has in other interviews.
He gives her clues about a current serial killer that no one else is privy to, and she fights battles with her superior and the bureaucracy to be able to follow them up.

 Hannibal London Movie Review
This time round, Clarice Starling is played by Julianne Moore (Boogie Nights, Magnolia), while Anthony Hopkins reprises his Oscar-winning turn as Dr. Hannibal ‘the Cannibal’ Lecter.
The story picks up ten years later, with Starling’s once promising career seemingly on a downward path after a bungled shoot-out leaves one of her colleagues dead.
As for Julianne Moore, though she’s a chameleonically-gifted actress, she seems to have been directed to play Starling as coldly and unemotionally as possible, meaning that we don’t get any real idea of her feelings for Lecter, all of which is crucial in the final reel.

 Hannibal
John Mathieson's strongly lit, wide-canvas cinematography is exquisitely beautiful; gorgeous food, music, architecture, and painting are regularly trotted out for our viewing pleasure; and the gritty, fearless Julianne Moore, replacing Jodie Foster as a sterner, angrier, more disappointed Clarice Starling, is both a beautiful bit of recasting and a beautiful vision unto herself.
Starling, once so resolute a protector, is now unsure what exactly she owes to the institution trying to capture and perhaps assassinate Hannibal.
She is further unsettled, as we are, by odd intimations that Hannibal is in love with her, or at least has some secret, hard-to-deduce designs on her that may involve more than her mind.

 All about Hannibal Lecter - Facts and Fiction by Anthony Bruno
In these two novels, Lecter, in his indirect, Cheshire-Cat way, advises the FBI as they hunt for headline-making serial killers who are on the loose and very active.
Clarice Starling, now a full-fledged special agent, picks up his trail, hoping to recapture the wily psychoanalyst with a taste for human flesh.
He has six fingers on one hand, the middle finger “perfectly replicatedÂ… the rarest form of polydactyly.” His sense of smell is highly developed as exhibited by his ability to detect Clarice Starling’s brand of perfume—L’Air du Temps—on their first meeting in The Silence of the Lambs, even though she hadn’t worn any that day.

When F.B.I. Agent Clarice Starling (Julianne Moore) is blamed for a botched drug bust, her boss Paul Krendler (Ray Liotta) makes a media circus of her humiliation, which catches the attention of Lecter.
A banquet for the splatterati, reveling as it does in gore and dismemberment, the film features brilliant work by a stellar cast, and the kind of meticulous art direction and lushly magnificent photography that one has come to expect of one of Scott.
Jodie Foster, who starred in SILENCE OF THE LAMBS, passed on the film, because she was dissatisfied with the manner in which the character of Clarice was handled.
