Overview
Clarice Starling is a high student at the FBI's training academy. Jack Crawford wants Clarice to interview Dr. Hannibal Lecter, a brilliant psychiatrist who is also a violent psychopath, serving life behind bars for a variety of acts of murder and cannibalism. Crawford believes that Lecter may have insight into a situation and that Starling, as an attractive young woman, might be just the bait to draw him out.
