"I'll confess it is pleasant to look at you asleep. You're quite beautiful, Will."
"Looks are an accident, Dr. Lecter."
"If comeliness were earned, you'd still be beautiful."

Choose your favorite autistic FBI agent:
-guy who insists all of the crimes are caused by aliens (he is right somehow)
-woman who, fresh out the academy, fell in love with the cannibal that the FBI decided they needed the help of to catch a different killer, and probably tells her academy roommate about it
-man who stands at crime scenes and vibrates like a small nervous dog and falls in love with the SAME cannibal (it’s worse)
-man who low key has ESP and prophetic dreams but has such an endearing personality and love for pie and coffee that you can overlook how this is an unorthodox way to go about solving a murder investigation

I'm writing an analysis of gender performativity in The Silence of the Lambs for my gender and sexuality class and in the course of my research I have encountered so many bad takes!! I can't not say anything so I've come to Tumblr to rant.
The most common criticism I see is that the ending of "Hannibal" discredits, undoes, or diminishes Clarice's feminism, autonomy, or power, or that it ruins the message of SOTL. That indicates a complete misunderstanding of Clarice and the point of the books! The point of "Hannibal" is to show that it does not matter how amazing, powerful, or how much of a feminist you are: if you are a woman in a career, especially a federal career, the system is designed to put you down and keep you quiet. I think there is nothing more she could have done and nothing she could have done differently to prevent her disgrace. When the system is set up to put men in power and keep them in power, your talent and integrity do not matter if they decide they don't want/need you anymore. There is nothing she can do to prevent the label of "female officer" from haunting her credibility. Even Crawford, who respects her and fights for her, sees her with the caveat of "woman." The one man who does not consider her gender any sort of detriment or a reason to treat her differently is Hannibal Lecter. They have genuine mutual respect. When she chose to be with him, she chose respect, love, and comfort over a life of fighting to be recognized, respected, or listened to. Just as much as it is respectable for women to fight for their right to be recognized in their careers, we must also recognize that that fight should not need to exist in the first place. So, why should there be any shame about choosing not to fight that fight anymore? She spent years in an uphill battle, and she probably never would have escaped it (to no fault of her own!). The ending of "Hannibal" is Clarice raising a middle finger to the system, the FBI, misogyny, and the patriarchy by recognizing that she deserves unconditional love and respect and that the system she fought so hard for was, in fact, completely undeserving of her talent or presence. Her decision is powerful and empowered!
"She was brainwashed!" she literally wasn't. Hannibal tried that (I believe because he was so unfamiliar with the idea of love or family that he didn't know how to understand Clarice outside of the lens of Mischa) but he was unsuccessful. If she was able to resist his efforts of brainwashing while in an altered state she certainly had the strength of mind to make her own decisions. Her decision was not impulsive. Also, I think it serves as a testament to her influence and power over him. She gained control of the situation and he didn't resist that. Ultimately, Clarice chose to spend the rest of her life with the one man who ever truly saw her as more than just a woman, who admired her intellect, and who respected her enough to challenge her. That is not weak, submissive, or misogynistic. Quite the opposite. She chose to leave behind the life she put years of effort into building (because she knew it would be fruitless) in favor of being finally honored and appreciated. That takes courage! She knew her worth, and she knew the FBI didn't deserve her.
Also, anyone who paid any attention to the books saw the romantic tension throughout the story. It didn't come out of nowhere. She really just needed an opportunity or an excuse to be with him, and she was finally presented with it.
I think reading the ending to "Hannibal" as anything other than empowering is a mischaracterization of both Clarice and Hannibal and shows a lack of understanding of the message of the books. I think it reflects a shallow understanding of not only the books, but of how feminism operates IRL (especially during the 80s/90s).
I also must give the disclaimer that I do not think these books are epitomes of feminism or representation. The transmisogyny, racism, queerphobia, etc., are obviously inexcusable. Just because I interpret their message as a story of caution about how misogyny operates, and how it is respectable to choose a path that does not work within that system, does not mean I agree with everything presented in them or any of their harmful rhetorics or stereotypes. I have a STRONG love/hate relationship with these stories and I don't ever mean to undersell the "hate" part of that lol.
#wanna talk about bad endings? lets talk about the hannibal MOVIE!#ok this post sounds a little bitchy but I'm not trying to be argumentative I'm just way too invested in this lol#the silence of the lambs#silence of the lambs#sotl#hannibal book#hannibal books#hannibal movie#thomas harris tetralogy#thomas harris books#thomas harris#clarice starling#sotl analysis#clannibal#clarice x hannibal#hannibal x clarice#I'm also peeved by the whole “breastfeeding kink ew weird” claim like cmon#that is the tamest kink ive ever heard of#in this context i find it kinda wholesome tbh

I don’t think we talk enough about what a Mary Sue Hannibal is in the books. He’s got maroon eyes that “reflect red pinpoints in the light,” six fingers on his left hand, perfect pitch, several graduate degrees, a photographic memory, and a literal actual castle. He speaks seven languages. He can do every kind of art. He can smell cancer. He gives himself reconstructive surgery (twice). He’s the funniest bitch alive. AND he gets his girl.
