Review of Hannibal

Hannibal (2001)
9/10
A tribute to Dante Alighieri - without tears
15 October 2012
A great thank to Patrick Cassidy! "Vide Cor Meum" I kept in my soul.

To portray Firenze that way was not the only really great idea - to get to Europe, to the cradle of the renaissance, and to use an anthropophagous M.D. to present and represent some key aspect and applied ethics in medieval times. "Avarice, hanging, self destruction" - "I make my own home be my gallows." It still works. Be aware of Renaldos, Masons, Pauls...

Julianne Moore gave an outstanding "Goodbye" to the phantom 'Clarice Starling' that almost became real by that magnificent work of her predecessor. She never tried to copy something from her, and she did not "trample" on "her". I felt a deep silent satisfaction - just a little bit like bliss - seeing her in her beautiful unpretentious black dress at the end of this two hours stripped from pride, weapons and the connection with the cannibalism, that she let ran after the last attempt to imprison it. You cannot catch this, much less if you're trying to use cuffs.

Incipit vita nova.
