13/20 #filmsky The direction was to list "20 movies that have greatly influenced you, one a day for 20 days, no explanations, no reviews, just posters.” For better or worse, this film had a great influence on me.

Poster to the Jonathan Demme 1991 film “The Silence of the Lambs,” based on the novel by Thomas Harris. The poster is dominated by an over-exposed, deathly white image of Clarice Starling’s face (played by Jodie Foster), eyes open and colored a deep red; her mouth is concealed/sealed by a “death’s head moth”. Credits beneath her chin list Foster, Anthony Hopkins (Lecter) and Scott Glenn (Jack Crawford), and beneath it, in a lighter, more orange-red, the title of the film. Beneath that, “from the terrifying best seller”.

My relationship with this film has changed incredibly over the years as I have lived and learned. But in 1991, Foster’s performance was revelatory to me, as was Clarice’s story. Clarice’s DNA can be found, in small part, in Carrie Stetko, I’m sure.
