Chilling and thrilling: experience this cult classic, multi-Oscar-winning film with iconic soundtrack performed live by the Hallé orchestra.

FBI agent Clarice Starling (Jodie Foster) races against time to stop a serial killer nicknamed ‘Buffalo Bill’. Hoping it may unlock the answers to this case, she interviews prisoner Dr Hannibal Lecter (Anthony Hopkins), a cannibalistic psychiatrist whose fascination with the young agent is as great as his hunger for murder. 

As their relationship develops, Starling is forced to confront not only her own demons, but also an evil so powerful she may not have the courage to stop. 

Jonathan Demme’s landmark film remains a gripping, unsettling ride 35 years after its original release with its seminal performances and Howard Shore’s brilliant, atmospheric score.
