Image Analysis (Favourite)

This shallow depth of field shot of Hannibal Lecter is when he is being questioned through the bars of imprisonment. Straight away we can say that bars in front of him connote his evil/dangerous behaviour. From looking at the setting and props of this shot we can assume the mahogany chair and glass table are connotations of upper-class Englishness. This more comfortable environment is something you wouldn’t normally see in a prison cell, making him seems more manipulative and dangerous. The main indications used to show his psychotic personality is through the use of direct mode of address, expression and dialogue. His mockery expression and way of talking shows that he is not bothered about what people think, making him very intimidating to the audience. Finally through the use of Hannibal the Cannibal they have added historical context of the real life case of Ed Gein. This has been used to make the film more realistic and appealing the targeted demographic.
