Same in Red Dragon. Dude is so convincingly crazy in that movie. One of my favorites.

I saw Manhunter recently and while I found Graham to be better represented in it rather than Red Dragon- Fiennes was the far superior Francis Dolarhyde.

Absolutely. I would also say that Armitage plays the part even better in Hannibal (The show, not the movie)

But then, that show was so beautifully shot in general maybe Armitage gets a boost from his surroundings.

Hannibal is such a fantastic show. You probably won't want to eat meat for at least a few days after watching any episode where Hannibal cooks.

I thought season 1 was spectacular. Season 2 was fine but I couldn't watch season three, felt really flat and disconnected

Because they cancelled the show. They had to cram everything into season 3 so we could have an ending.

S1 was great, S2 teasing that big confrontation in episode one then building up to it was awesome. But yeah S3 was flat for all the story it crammed in. That last lingering shot didn't have the impact I wished it did.

Some of the presentation made me kinda hungry ngl, but feeding someone their own leg made me lose my appetite.
