CrimeDramaThriller124 min

Former FBI agent Will Graham returns to work when a serial killer starts slaughtering entire families, and the only lead that makes sense points him back to Dr. Hannibal Lecter, the imprisoned murderer who once nearly killed him. Edward Norton is Graham, pulled into a new investigation that depends on reading another predator’s mind. Anthony Hopkins’s Lecter turns their meetings into a tense exchange of clues, provocation, and old grievances, while Ralph Fiennes is the killer the press dubs the Tooth Fairy. The case moves between crime scenes, bureau pressure, and Graham’s dangerous effort to think like the man he’s hunting.
