Quite frequently I felt repulsed and drawn in by the gore, but it is often counter-measured by deathly black humour. I often felt that the general tone and filmography should also be applauded, with a very dark, gothic atmosphere that is consistent throughout. The element of sanity hangs over everything that Will does, when he stirs the water with accusations it can be hard to judge the falsity in it considering he is in a mental institution. It really is a herald to the writing by Bryan Fuller that every character that we meet is hard to trust completely but also has notes of empathy.
Following on from the previous events of season one, Will is accused of many murders that he cannot recall doing, but with every piece of evidence pointing at him, we as an audience struggle to grasp on to his innocence. Throughout the second series, it seems to be a constant manipulative battle between the master and his squire a duel of one-up-man-ship. While HL may be the star of the show, the real intrigue and attachment revolves around his psychiatric patient, Will Graham (Dancy). Due to Mads’ excellent portrayal of the aforementioned cannibal, it is often hard to believe that he is as callous as suggested, thus magnifying the impact of his acts. His motives for murder do not reside in random acts of callous bloodshed, but for the somewhat humorous reason that his victims were rude. In contrast to the screen version of Hannibal (largely portrayed by Sir Anthony Hopkins), there is a methodical calmness to Lecter that is only seen by Mikkelsen. It is almost laughable to suggest that such a man could cause such barbarous acts. A cannibal that eats his murder victims suggests an image of a ravenous, unhinged monster but this is an antithesis to the person on screen a suited, softly spoken gentleman. The initial idea of Dr Hannibal Lecter is one that is ambiguous. The creator of the show, Bryan Fuller may as well pat himself on the back for creating such a daring and stylized interpretation of what is one of the most recognizable anti-heroes Hannibal Lecter. The questions and chat about a possible Season 4 begins around the 57:00 minute mark.The second season of Hannibal is insane, grotesque, charming, thoughtful and bloody brilliant.Īs I write to you in this current state of shock, the magnitude of the emotional impact imprinted on me has left me a husk of my former self.

"The great thing about the idea - with members of the cast in terms of where we're going - is that if we are going to take five years, six years, seven years or what have you and everyone's still interested in coming back then that's just how long they've been on the lam, as it were. If the show does return some day, Fuller teased an idea that he feels is a good jumping off point. "What's interesting is that we took so much from Clarice and wove it into Will Graham in a way that kind of hybridized those characters."

Of course, the big hurdle here is that MGM owns the rights to that particular book, and the character of Clarice Starling (hence MGM TV and CBS teaming up for a Clarice Starling procedural series), but Fuller also mentioned how much the show already borrowed from the Clarice character. "It will be interesting to see what happens with the show moving forward," he said, "or whether there is ever to be a Silence of the Lambs miniseries with this cast." Of course, nothing was said officially, but Fuller, as always, appeared optimistic about the chance to possibly adapt The Silence of the Lambs.
