Episode 9: THE SILENCE OF THE LAMBS (1991)

Join Quinn and Curtis as they usher us into spooky season with Jonathan Demme's 1991 horror/crime classic THE SILENCE OF THE LAMBS, which is also one of our favourite movies. We talk about our favourite scenes, the phenomenal acting, themes, metaphors, feminist readings of the film, the scariest bits for us, and more. We also provide a brief summary of the film. In the last section, we cover films that we recently watched during the week. John is saving the world this week, but he will return soon!
