Silence of the Lambs


Tonight, while I was watching "Silence of the Lambs" I experienced the strangest sensation. The movie took on the quality of an old film, a "classic" movie right before my eyes and ears. The music sounded big, sweeping - Grand! The color quality reminded me of technicolor films like "Sweet Charity" or "West Side Story. And of course Jodie Foster had more of dewey quality rather than sinewy.

I hope someone experiences me in the same way.

"Silence of the Lambs" is the only horror film I consider a comfort film.
