FWIW, on the comment on physique - Mads Mikkelsen was actually part of a dancing ensemble for 8 years before becoming an actor.
āFrench food?ā
Heās been eating mostly American from what Iāve seen.
Did anyone else find the staging of the latest corpse a little far-fetched? So he rigged up those glass plates by himself? I donāt think so. He must have interns.
Iām enjoying these reviews, but what happened to the Walking Dead reviews? Was the third-to-last episode too WTF for them to handle?
My favorite Lecter savoring was his reaction to Jackās āYouāre a great friend, Hannibal.ā I think Lecter misses Bedelia.
Well played.
Yes, definitely. I hesitate to nitpick to death because these reviews do get really long, but this was the first episode where I had a hard time suspending my belief. It would take a lot longer than one night to completely freeze a body to stone. Iām just guessing. (Or am I?) If a little ice pack for my portable cooler needs 5 hours in the freezer before itās up to snuff, Iām going to assume a whole body takes longer.
And then, yes, transporting and staging and lifting glass? Thatās a bit too far. But it sure made for a cool visual. Which I guess is really the point. But I prefer my Hannibal a tiny bit more grounded.
This is an ongoing theme in the series, itās āMagical Realismā. The overly complex set of glass slides is of a piece with the angel maker (who psychically identified criminals and hung himself from a rafter) , the totem pole (one 70+ year old did THAT?) or this seasonās āeye muralā.
