The Silence of the Lambs (1991) Soundboard Edit

Access to Lecter is limited. We've received death threats.

Advancement. Listen. Look deep within yourself, Clarice Starling.

Agent Starling, meet Mr. Acherontia Styx.

Agent Starling! Come back! Agent Starling! Agent Starling!

All good things to those who wait.

Amputate a man's leg, and he can still feel it tickling

And he can sew!

And shut the door.

Are you there?

Been in the water a week. Looks like Buffalo Bill.

Billy is not a real transsexual.

Bobby, get the vest.

Boy, that's smart.

Breaking doors or windows to enter or exit.

Buffalo Bill's real name is Louis Friend.

Busy hunting that new one, Buffalo Bill.

Can I get Mrs. Lippman's address? I need to talk to her.

Catherine Martin?

Clarice Starling and Jack Crawford have wasted too much time already.

Come and get it, pretty girl.

Come and get it!

Come on, girl!

Congratulations.

Crawford? Thanks, Ardelia.

Crawford's very clever, isn't he, using you?

Did you have a trainee make a phony offer to Lecter in the senator's name?

Did you...

Different configuration than the other victims. Get close ups.

Do you know Florence?

Do you spook easily, Starling?

Don't forget your phone call.

Don't you feel eyes moving over your body, Clarice?

Don't you leave me here!

Don't you make me hurt your dog!

Dr. Lecter.

Dr. Lecter...

Excuse me, officers and gentlemen. Listen here, now

Exit wound level with the second or third thoracic vertebrae...

Five foot ten, strongly built, about 180 pounds.

Fredrica went into Chicago on the bus to see about a job.

Freeze!

From a research point of view, Lecter is our most prized asset.

Go, doctor.

Go.

Good.

Good. Then you should be able to remember the rules.

Got his clothes, cash.

Hair, blond. Eyes, pale blue

He is much older, but do you think he visualizes scenarios, exchanges?

He knew her.

He was so heavy.

He would consider that rude.

He would have toyed with you, then turned to stone.

He'd be about 35 now.

He's here, Ardelia.

Her body was the only one he weighted down.

Here's that number.

Hester Mofet: The rest of me?

Hey! Don't you hurt my dog!

His name is now a matter of record with the proper authorities.

Holy shit!

How did?

How the fuck should I know? Just get me out of here!

How?

I ate his liver with some fava beans..

I called Senator Ruth Martin

I can smell your cunt.

I can't tell you any more

I crept up into the barn.

I do wish we could chat longer...

I don't believe Lecter's seen a woman in eight years, and you are his taste

I don't expect him to talk to you..

I don't know. I didn't have any food, any water...

I don't think so.

I never thought about it.

I now think of him as an experiment.

I only pray they haven't doomed the poor girl.

I really appreciate this. Thank you

I rolled the dice. I had to.

I see him.

I see.

I thought...

I'm down here! I'm down here!

I'm going to show you why we insist on such precautions.

I've been in this room for eight years now, Clarice.

If he won't cooperate, I want straight reporting.

It started as a joke in Kansas City Homicide.

It was found in a murder victim. The body was in the Elk River.

It was...

It's nothing.

Jack, Hannibal Lecter is being transferred to Memphis.

Johnson, good entry, good command. Starling, where's your danger area?

Know what I mean?

Lambs.

Lecter is missing and armed.

Lecter?

Lecter's been in prison for years.

Lecter's gone, sarge.

Ligature marks found around wrists...

Look at the blood!

Louis Friend?

Main stairwell secured.

May I use your phone, please?

Memphis police say the missing girl's blouse has been identified...

Miggs is dead

Nice and slow, baby.

No, sir. That's a bug cocoon

No, we don't.

No, we just...

No. I came because I wanted to.

No. That is incidental.

Not anymore

Now it places the lotion in the basket.

Nutrition has given you some length of bone...

Of each particular thing, ask: What is it in itself?

Oh, God! Oh, God!

Oh, Jack Gordon.

Okay

Okay

Okay, good.

Okay, Starling.

Okay, three days...

Okay.

Or did Jack Crawford send you for one last wheedle...

Our little Billy must already be searching for that next special lady.

Pack your field gear.

Pembry got off one round. There's a chance Lecter's hit.

People will say we're in love.

Please come. Come on.

Please continue now.

Please. My daughter is Catherine.

Plum Island Animal Disease Research Center.

Point taken.

Precious?

Proceed. Shots fired on five.

Raspail was a transvestite?

Ray.

Right.

Say, are you about a size 14?

Seal off a 10 block radius.

See, my mom is a real important woman.

Sergeant Tate! He's alive!

Sewing was her life.

She had an object deliberately inserted into her throat.

Shut up!

Sit down.

Sit. Please.

So actually, she was the third girl found.

So nobody's been in here since 1980?

So you take care now to extend me the same courtesy.

Some kind of seedpod?

Somebody grew this guy. Fed him honey and nightshade.

Sometimes you do.

Spread your legs!

Starling!

Starling!

Starling! We know who and where he is!

Starling.

Subject's name is Jamie Gumb, a.k.a. John Grant.

Take this thing back to Baltimore.

Tell me his name, doctor!

Terns nest there. There's beautiful...

Thank you.

Thank you.

That doesn't interest me. It's the sort of thing that Miggs would say.

That was good.

That's what's strange. They only live in Asia.

That's why you sent me in there, isn't it?

The crew was dead.

The death of my father.

The first girl taken, third body found. Why?

The security system's set up?

The significance of the moth is change.

The water leaves us no trace evidence of any kind.

There never was a deal with Senator Martin, but there is now

They don't have a name for what he is.

They know that you're with me.

They scammed you, Hannibal.

They shot him.

This is the number for the U.S. Attorney

Ticktock, ticktock, ticktock.

Time, Pilch. My move

Try to be a student, Dr. Pilcher.

Two of her fingernails are broken off...

Unit 31 was leased...

Upstairs.

Was she a great big fat person?

Watch it!

We heard it on the radio.

We'll extend you every courtesy, but right now...

We're going in

We're going up.

We're inbound with a 50 year old male officer...

We're interviewing all serial killers in custody...

We're on our way right now.

What did you mean by fledgling killer?

What did you mean by transformation, doctor?

What do I say?

What do you think?

What does he do, this man you seek?

What else do you see, Starling?

What happened to your drawings?

What is its nature?

What is that?

What is this shit?

When she's finished, bring her out.

Where does it come from?

Who is Buffalo Bill?

Would you fuck me?

Would you?

Y'all brought her this far, and her folks would thank you if they could...

Yeah, I bought this house two years ago.

Yeah, we'll be sending in a minute

Yes or no, Clarice? Poor little Catherine is waiting.

Yes, she was a big girl, sir

Yes, sir, I will

Yes, sir.

Yes. A moth.

You answer me now...

You don't know what pain is!

You don't want Hannibal Lecter inside your head.

You haven't mentioned anything about the information in my report..

You keep to the right.

You know I can't make that promise.

You know who he is, don't you?

You mean this is a clue from a real murder case? Cool!

You see a lot, doctor.

You started at what time?

You still think you're gonna walk on some beach and see the birdies?

You still wake up sometimes, don't you?

You want to come in?

You went to live with cousins on a sheep and horse ranch in Montana. And?

You will let me know when those lambs stop screaming, won't you?

You're to tell him nothing personal.

Young Catherine is the only daughter of U.S. Senator Ruth Martin...

Your anagrams are showing, doctor.

Your bleeding has stopped.

Clarice. Hey.

Clear! Clear!

Clear. Clear.

Do you understand? Yes, I understand, sir.

In the corner. Did you check it?

Is it true what they're saying? Huh?

May I? Yeah, sure

One warning. We need him alive. Got it.

Out! Tell me his name.

Then tell me how. First principles, Clarice.

Transsexuals are very passive. Clever girl

You ready? Let's go!

... it has stirred the government to its highest levels.

... not around the ankles.

... the Republican senator from Tennessee.

...and if the girl is found in time..

...and refusing to share information with me for the third time

...and the patient is on 10 liters of oxygen.

...based on the case evidence.

...but you're not more than one generation from white trash..

...exhilarated.

...for 10 years, prepaid in full.

...for a psycho behavioral profile.

...glitter nail polish. It looks like town to me.

...I've brought an affidavit guaranteeing your new rights

...in two diamond shaped sections above the buttocks.

...screaming
