I'm confused as usual. Silence of the Lambs is close to my favorite film, and I've seen Hannibal the film several times also. I haven't read any of the books.
I'm confused because in the tv show, we have the guy who has the ability to go back in time and see each crime/murder that was committed. That to me is science fiction, which is fine.
But nothing from the two films is sci-fi. They could actually happen in real life. That's why I can't connect the tv Hannibal to Silence....
