For those of you who had forgot, here is the quote again:
“I ate his liver with some fava beans and a big Amarone.”
And here are the answers I recieved.
First of all from Wild child 1080:
I think that’s from Silence of the Lambs. It was said by Hannibal Lecter(Anthony Hopkins). I’m
probably wrong but hey, I tried. [Wild child 1080]
Next from long time competitor Cosmic:
“I ate his liver with some fava beans and a nice chianti.” is what is said in silence of the lambs I
believe…..so the quote is from…..erm….. [Cosmic]
is it from some song by the rapper Big Pun? Not sure which one mind. my m8 likes his stuff.
[Cosmic]
The third answer I got was from LittleMissMuddle:
It’s from Silence of the Lambs. Not sure which way round this is.. I think the chianti line is from
the film, but in the book it’s Amarone. Or the other way round. [LittleMissMuddle]
OK I’ll admit it. I was just a little bit sneaky with this one. LittleMissMuddle earns boasting rights on this one as she was correct.
Cosmic was kind of correct as well. It is Chianti in the film. However in the book (end of chapter 3, p22-23 in my copy) Lecter, when asked if he would take part in the study replies:
“A cencus taker tried to quantify me once. I ate his liver with some fava beans and a big Amarone. Go back to school little Starling.”
Nice guy.
Next quote later on this week (probably over the weekend).
