Chatty Hollywood

Chapter 94 The Silence of the Lambs

""The Silence of the Lambs"!?"

Jodie Foster was surprised;

"It is true that Dr. Hannibal is very confusing and intimidating as a cannibal maniac, but in the movie he has never done anything similar to painting!"

"I'm not talking about Dr. Hannibal."

"Not Hannibal?"

Jodie Foster suddenly trembled,

“You mean—Buffalo Bill!?”

Although "The Silence of the Lambs" made the cannibal doctor Hannibal the image of film history, in fact, this character played by Anthony Hopkins is not the real villain BOSS in the movie at all.

The real villain is Buffalo Bill.

In fact, "Silence of the Lambs" is based on the investigation process of FBI agent Clarisse's investigation of "Buffalo Bill", a serial killer who kills women and then skins them.

And the cannibal doctor Hannibal was actually helping the FBI - even if he escaped in the end.

This is also the reason why Anthony Hopkins can win the Oscar for Best Actor for his negative role as Doctor Hannibal - to a certain extent, he can indeed be said to be the leading actor of this movie.

However, even if the hero is more of a villain than a villain, according to the story of the movie, Buffalo Bill is the real BOSS after all.

Although in terms of aura, this doctor is completely inferior to Dr. Hannibal, who raised cannibalism to a philosophical level, but from a purely perverted perspective, he is indeed superior -

"If I want to change my gender into a woman, I will peel off the skin of the women I killed and sew it into clothes to wear on my body..."

In front of Jodie Foster, Charlotte listed the criminal characteristics of Buffalo Bill in "The Silence of the Lambs" one by one.

"Although it sounds exactly opposite to many characteristics of painted skin, this is probably the cause of painted skin, and-"

"It's also about putting clothes made of women's skin on your body and dressing yourself up as a woman. This is where Buffalo Bill is most closely associated with painted skin, right?"

Judy understood what Charlotte meant, and she couldn't help but feel horrified when she recalled the movie she starred in.

"Buffalo Bill's clothes sewn from women's skin are indeed very similar to what you call painted skin. However, does this mere similarity lead to the birth of a monster like painted skin?"

"That won't happen!"

Charlotte shook her head. He didn't mean to deceive Judy.

"To be precise, the reason why things like painted skins were born was completely different. But it was indeed the movie "Silence of the Lambs" that made them look like painted skins after birth."

"What does it mean?"

"Let's deduce it!"

Charlotte looked at Judy and asked her question,

"If in the movie, Buffalo Bill keeps committing crimes but is never caught, will he eventually complete his dress made of women's skin?"

"Maybe... yes!"

Jodie Foster nodded hard.

"Then if he puts on that dress and goes to a bar, will he think he is a woman?"

"Maybe!"

"What will he do when faced with a man in a bar?"

"this……"

"Look, you understand it, right?"

Charlotte laughed,

"Buffalo Bill can be said to be the human prototype before monsters like Painted Skin were formed."

"But even so, why do those painted-skinned monsters look like me?"

Jodie Foster still doesn't understand.

"You still don't understand this!?"

Charlotte asked a question very directly,

"Who do you think is the most beautiful woman in the entire "Silence of the Lambs"?"

"I!?"

Judy pointed to her nose,

In this regard, she is still very confident.

"Whether it's a woman or a pervert who wants to be a woman, there are very few people who want to be ugly."

Charlotte shrugged.

"so……"

"This is what this is..."

Judy discovered for the first time that making a classic movie brought so much trouble, but on the other hand, she still didn't understand.

"The Silence of the Lambs was released in 1991. Even if Anthony and I won an award for this movie, it was only in 1992. Why did this painted monster appear now?"

"Because the birth of ghosts like Huapi requires special opportunities!"

Charlotte further explained,

"The Silence of the Lambs, a movie that everyone is familiar with, has accumulated enough magic power due to the fear in the hearts of the audience. Once it encounters a suitable opportunity, it can trigger the birth of the corresponding ghost!"

"The opportunity you are talking about means——"

“An event that sparks that magic!”

Charlotte scratched her head in distress,

"This must be a very random situation! Otherwise, Hollywood would be full of ghosts!"

——But because of this, it is difficult to determine what the incident is!

This was the question that confused Charlotte, but he did not say it clearly, but continued,

"However, judging from the fact that Huapi was born as a monster between men and women instead of an ogre like Dr. Hannibal, this opportunity may not only contain pure fear."

"What else?"

Charlize on the side was also very curious about this - she had seen all kinds of ghosts and knew that ghosts needed fear, but she didn't know what the other things Charlotte said were.

Charlotte's answer was straightforward,

"There are also jealousy and psychopathy! Only when these emotions are mixed with fear can the magic power be formed that can give birth to a monster like Huapi."

"In other words, as long as the influence of "Silence of the Lambs" still exists, the magic power that can birth monsters will continue to flow!?"

Seeing Charlotte nodding in agreement with her guess, Jodie Foster couldn't help but feel a little desperate.

"Then what should I do? It's impossible to erase the movie "Silence of the Lambs" from the audience's memory, right!?"

"Of course this won't work!"

Charlotte smiled slightly,

"But there is another way, which is to directly find the opportunity for the magic power to transform - after all, without the opportunity, the magic power will just stay there quietly, waiting to dissipate."

"But how do you find that opportunity?"

Jodie Foster looks like I am helpless too,

"Didn't you say that was a very sporadic situation?"

“It’s not hard to find accidental situations!”

Charlotte is not completely helpless;

"Actually, I'm going to follow a clue right now—"

As he spoke, he looked at Jodie Foster with a very formal look,

"Judy, when you just touched the painting in my hand, you screamed in fright - does this mean that you not only recognized that it was not a rubber, latex or silicone product, but also recognized it all at once? Its essence, human skin!?”

As soon as these words came out, Judy's face suddenly turned white. Her eyes were a little dodgeful, but Charlotte didn't let her go.

"Have you ever come into contact with something made of human skin before!?"
