		A film crew of three people arrived in Hannibal on Wednesday evening to begin filming for a biography on Mark Twain that is scheduled to be broadcast on Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) in the fall of 2001.
		Following the filming along the river, the crew returned to the New Mark Twain Museum where time was spent filming individual archival photographs relating to Twain.
		Throughout filming, Duncan said the crew is being careful to exclude any footage which possesses 20th Century inventions, which would not be authentic to the time represented in the film.

	Hannibal (film) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Hannibal is a 2001 film, directed by Ridley Scott, adapted from the Thomas Harris novel of the same name.
		The films begins in Italy and moves to the United States; one of the final scenes shocked audiences and critics alike.
		Another reason was that Jodie Foster refused to appear in the film unless the ending was changed; by the time the re-write was done, she had moved on to another project.

	Guardian Unlimited Film \| Reviews \| Hannibal (2001)
		i studied the film "the cook, the thief, his wife and her lover" at degree level and was repulsed by it totally but after last night i think it is a picnic in the park (scuse me).
		As novels, Hannibal is vastly inferior to its forerunner but, by virtue of the fact that the film of Hannibal is superior to the novel upon which it is based whereas the film of SOTL is vastly inferior, everything balances out.
		Hannibal is an enthralling film and does disturb but I must address the fact that it is morally dubious and has been labelled as a gorefest.

	Hannibal : film review
		Based on the 1999 novel by Thomas Harris, Hannibal is a fairly accurate adaptation of its literary source, which means that the problems that plagued the book also haunt the movie.
		Ten years have passed since Dr. Hannibal Lecter (Hopkins) escaped from custody, ten years since Clarice Starling (Julianne Moore, replacing Jodie Foster) interviewed him in a maximum-security hospital for the criminally insane in the hope that he could help her catch the serial killer known as Buffalo Bill.
		Yet, Ridley Scott manages to take the material and mold it into an entertaining film, one that is rich in his trademark smoky atmosphere and one that is capable of delivering some very intense, suspenseful and darkly humorous scenes (his handling of the section in Italy is excellent).

	Hannibal review
		Nonetheless, despite gory scenes that border on ridiculous, in Scott's hands the film is visually stunning and difficult not to admire.
		A strange twist is that Hannibal is a much more sympathetic character than the others who surround Clarice, which leads to a hypothesis that the movie at its core is more about corruption than any sort of serious psychological thriller.
		Scott is careful, however, and we reconsider hiring Hannibal as a tour guide when we see the world through Clarice's point of view, and the horror she sees through a morphine haze.

	DVD.net : Hannibal - CE - DVD Review
		Hannibal is presented in its correct aspect ratio of 1.85:1 and is anamorphic.
		Hannibal is not an action film, yet it does contain a dynamic shootout near the film’s beginning; despite the high level of activity and rapid cutting, there is no grain.
		The film can be regarded as an insight of the corruptibility of the modern world when individuals forsake morality in exchange for personal gain, whether it be financial, beneficial, or sexual.

	Hannibal. A Hollywood Jesus Movie Review
		In the film FBI agent Clarice Starling, the sacrificial lamb, is wounded and is resurrected from "death".
		From: David in NC While I am not ready to swallow the wholesale notion of Hannibal as a Christ figure, the use of blood as a means of salvation, deliverance, and justice are evident in the film.
		This too is a must see, a deft film which goes so far as to employ the style and structure of a mid-70s 'religious' film (those well intended but poorly done kind) to confront believers head-on with the fallout from 'literalist interpretation' of sciprture.

	DVD Times - Hannibal (Special Edition) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Hannibal is, for me, is a truly wonderful piece of work: a Grand Guignol masterpiece, and that rare example of a film produced within the confines of Hollywood commerce that actually comes close to functioning as an art film.
		The film has a sort of snickering attitude to its gore (which is less shocking than it would like to be) heightened by the fact that Lecter seems to have gone plump and camp, like a sociopathic Truman Capote.
		Hannibal is a more baroque piece which does make a real attempt to delve into the reasons for the development of Dr Lecter's psyche (a thread not in the movie at all, and rather a pity, since it shows why Lecter finds Starling so attractive).

	Filmtracks: Hannibal (Hans Zimmer)
		Hannibal: (Hans Zimmer) It has been nearly ten years since Silence of the Lambs swept through the world with its hauntingly brilliant acting performances, and Sir Anthony Hopkins now reprises the title role in 2001's Hannibal.
		Casual film score fans, and especially those who first recognized and became fans of Hans Zimmer's music last year, will surprised to hear Hannibal, which is an effort that reaches back to some of the most poignant classical work that Zimmer has ever done.
		The violin section performs the entirety of the extremely subtle, but equally classically-formated theme for the film, and together with a consistent piano, Zimmer is very successful in conveying that refined classicism necessary for Hannibal's intelligence.

	Hannibal Movie Review by Anthony Leong from MediaCircus.net
		The influence of the film was also felt on television, as a number of dramas brought the trappings of the genre to the small screen, such as "The Profiler" and "Millennium", as well as providing the inspiration for yet another pop culture icon, Agent Scully of "The X-Files".
		Instead of focusing on the psyche of Clarice, as well as her riveting mental and verbal spars with Hannibal Lecter, which gave "Silence of the Lambs" much of its emotional resonance, "Hannibal" is your by-the-numbers catch-the-killer-before-he-catches-you type of story, with complexity of its heroine being reduced to a two-dimensional tough-talker with a gun.
		Of course, the title of the film is "Hannibal", implying that the focus is on the cannibal himself, which it is-- alas, very few new insights about one of cinema's most interesting villains are revealed.

	Hannibal: Cinephiles Movie Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		For instance, in the first film, mostly narrative references are made with respect to Dr. Lecter's victimization of his patients, whose body parts he recalls having eaten.
		Hannibal Lecter's free state, however, also deprives the story of a more intellectual approach, where the character would rely on ingenuity to escape from captivity.
		Clearly, the film's focus differs from that of its prequel, and Hannibal completes the unfinished portrait of the respectable madman.

	Total Film - Hannibal
		Hannibal’s living it up in Italy, while Starling’s FBI career is on the skids thanks to her trigger-happy reputation.
		But despite its faults, there’s no denying that Hannibal is an adept adaptation of a silly book, succeeds in translating its grand-guignol excesses to the big screen, and reminds us why Hopkins made Lecter such a perversely entertaining mad guy in the first place.
		As a sequel to The Silence Of The Lambs, Hannibal isa disappointment.

		Similarly, in Australia the film originally received an MA15+ classification but it was changed a week after released to R18+ due to protests.
		In SOTL, Foster perfectly portrayed Starling's flat surface with a turbulent depth; in Hannibal, there was nothing under her surface.
		There isn't a lot of gore in the film, but what there was, was...

	SPLICEDwire \| "Hannibal" review (2001)
		"Hannibal" takes place several years after "Silence of the Lambs," and Lecter has been in hibernation while his psychological foil, agent Clarice Starling (Julianne Moore taking over the role from Jodie Foster), has become a liability to the FBI after a controversial shooting incident.
		In one of the film's best scenes Lecter calls Starling's cell phone and toys with at her mind while she tries to track him through a crowded public square by following the background noises coming through the line.
		As a result this film misfires at some key moments -- like the climactic dinner scene, which is so extreme it belongs in the kind of serio-comic horror movie that frequently has the word "Chainsaw" in the title.

	Hannibal (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		When, later in the film, Scott pointedly cuts between close-ups of Verger and a boar, emphasizing the similarity of their appearance, the film moves from the grotesque to the inexcusably offensive.
		Scott and his composer Hans Zimmer are aiming for operatic emotions, but the effect instead is of inflation, attempting to push the tawdry brutality into a realm it's simply not interesting enough to reach.
		The film's effects are so calculated that our response can only be purely visceral: we flinch, we cover our eyes.

	Kinoeye\| The international reception of Ridley Scott's Hannibal
		Throughout this earlier film's reception, and during the preparations for the sequel, Lecter's character was consistently singled out by, among others, journalists and academics as the single most interesting element.
		It becomes a horror film only when, and because, the monster's role in the narrative renders a specific and reasonable meaning to all (or most) of the film's other signs and metaphors.
		This is not just because extra-textual factors, coming from the film's surroundings, have led people to label it as horror, but, just as importantly, because we have been able to link these extra-textual elements to textual features—to what belongs to the film text itself.

		Seriemoordenaar Dr. Hannibal Lecter ontsnapte 10 jaar geleden uit een zwaar beveiligde psychiatrische inrichting.
		"Hannibal" was a solid hit upon its release in February 2001, but, like the "Godfather III," it stood in the shadow of its more superior predecessor.
		But for all its shortcomings, "Hannibal" the DVD is a worthy purchase because MGM gave this disc such a deluxe treatment.

	The DVD Journal: Hannibal: Special Edition
		The Silence of the Lambs was a near-perfect film.
		Hannibal's living in Florence, Italy, working as an art curator, and he's made it a point to stay on top of Clarice's doings.
		Scott came to Hannibal directly from making Gladiator, and his eye was still accustomed to looking at big shots of big coliseums with small people; his film is curiously detached, with lots of scenes shot from rooftops, from across rivers, from hundreds of yards away.

		Inspired film music, for the most part, really comes from a great movie, which arises from an inspired script.
