EAT THE RUDE - Dr. Hannibal Lector

HANNIBAL HE KILLS

Hannibal returns for a third season beginning on June 4.

EAT THE RUDE
COME AND GET IT
Shakespeare is the first writer known to use the phrase “With bated breath” [in The Merchant of Venice].
Three centuries later, Mark Twain uses the phrase in Tom Sawyer: “Every eye fixed itself upon him; with parted lips and bated breath the audience hung upon his words, taking no note of time, rapt in the ghastly fascinations of the tale”. Today, I dare to use the phrase to describe how painful it has been to wait for Season 3 of Hannibal to start. I’ve impatiently been waiting with bated breath for Hannibal to start again. (Phrase definition: ‘Breathing that is subdued because of extreme emotion or emotional difficulty’).

There are hosts of reasons why I’ve been holding my breath in anticipation. Firstly, the season two finale was a breathtaking fiesta of the senses. Filled with subtle moments then ending with a crescendo the size of a meteor. Mortified by the prospect that Jack might be dead after he’s jabbed in the neck with a shard of glass. Simultaneously overwhelmed by Hannibal’s ‘guest,’ the mentally fragile Abigail Hobbs (Kacey Rohl) pushing Alana Bloom (Caroline Dhavernas) out a two-story window – as we watched Alana paralyzed in pain, gasping for water filled breaths.

Hannibal season three gives us a new chapter to chew on. We begin with Lecter on the run in Europe, accompanied by his protégé psychiatrist Bedelia Du Maurier (Gillian Anderson, The X-Files), sporting a new mission and a new identity. Will Graham (Hugh Dancy), Jack (Laurence Fishburne, The Matrix, CSI) and Alana (Caroline Dhavernas, Wonderfalls, The Pacific) don’t have a moment to recover from the events of the past season, finding themselves chasing the ghosts of their past.

I’m patiently awaiting how the writers merge Hannibal’s capture in season three with the introduction of Francis Dolarhyde (aka the Red Dragon) played by the talented Richard Armitage (The Hobbit). It’s to be noted that Harris’ ‘Red Dragon’ is a story in which Jack (Laurence Fishburne) is very much alive. Several other key elements still have to occur if we are staying true to the published literary works – there has to be a wedding for Will, as he and his wife Molly will presumably need to move to the Florida Keys after the eventual capture of Hannibal Lector. Bryan Fuller (Hannibal Creator) mentioned that the show would continue to use its creative licenses to create a new path for the characters – a new journey in their existence.

The faithful fans pray that with the investigation of the Red Dragon there will be and eventual introduction of Clarice Starling. Also that the story of "The Silence of the Lambs" will be integrated somewhere, but I predict that the story arc of Starling is so dense that it won’t occur until season four. With Director David Slade at the helm, we can predictably look forward to a beautifully shot season, worthy of cinematic awards – though last season the heavy artistic nature often overcast the plot points.

However, I wouldn’t dare be rude and complain, I might get eaten.

LINE HE KILLS

A conversation with Bryan Fuller:
(Hannibal Creator) 

Bryan Fuller:
“The whole point of the first episode. You don’t see any of the other characters.
It’s Hannibal and Bedelia. It’s the Talented Mr. Lecter and how they live under aliases and how they are navigating away from the FBI.
It takes place a year after the season finale, so they’ve been at it for an entire year when we land in their story. It’s going to answer a lot of question because we do flashbacks.
We understand what happened with her patient. We flashback to that.

We flashback to the night of the murders and what her perspective was”.

“The first episode is just Hannibal and Bedelia. We’ll see Will in episode 2 and start his story then. In a way, it might be a kinder introduction to the show because you’re not coming in with an FBI criminal procedural show. You’re coming in with a criminal and his psychiatrist, who have escaped the law and are living abroad and are having adventures with their situation that are exciting and intriguing.

Their relationship is hard to quantify for the audience because they think, “What is she up to? Why is she on that plane?” The fun for us was like,

“We have to make her smart.
We can’t make her brainwashed or be duped by Hannibal.”

She has to be a woman in charge of her own story and be driving her own story in the same way that Hannibal has to drive his own story”.

“We’re very into horror homages on the show.”

“Really, for Will Graham this season, the most accurate horror homage for us was Frankenstein. Here’s a guy that has been gutted, arguably dead, and coming back from that death, being sewn back together, and looking for the man who created him to understand what his journey is. That’s the tip of the iceberg.

It felt like an interesting journey where we had to make him a different Will Graham than Season One or Season Two Will Graham. They have to grow and have to change.

Everyone who survives that horror house finale of season two is a slightly different character because they can’t help but be changed by what they experienced”.

“We have harder violence and gore than most R-rated movies. They are always working with us to help navigate this. When Michael Pitt was cutting off his face and feeding it to the dogs, we called Standards and Practices and said, “There’s a scene in the book we’d really like to do. Help us do it.” She was like, “Okay, if you keep this in the shadows. If you have the red of the blood look almost brown or black, it won’t trip off the alarm bells.” They’ve been incredibly supportive. It’s unheard of”.

BATES MOTEL, S3 E8 – Post Mortem

4/28/2015

THE PIT

SEASON 3, EPISODE 8 - EPISODE REVIEW

★★★½ - 70%

  • Freddie Highmore shines, with one of his seasons-best performances.
  • Yet, even his brilliantly tortured soul cannot save the clunkiness of this uneven episode.

Bates Motel

***SPOILERS AHEAD***


THE PIT, S3 E8
★★★½

Week after week critics muddle over the ideal plot direction of Bates Motel.
Yes, we know the tragic ending.
Yes, we have an unwritten obligation to the source material.

However, do we?
Moreover, should we or can we?
I know I'm speaking as if I'm one of the writers… Respectfully, my point is clear.

Are the writers obligated to follow the beaten path?
Is it necessary to judge Bates Motel, based on its ability to reference the source material authentically?

I yell, no.

Hannibal successfully deviated from the franchise, while still keeping the essence of the characters grounded. Bates can achieve that too, if they stop listening to us (the audience).

Episode 8 followed some powerhouse episodes and was not a great episode itself. Simply because the writers could not decide where to place Caleb and Dylan within the storyline. The consensus is that Caleb must die for his sins. The most provocative question is when will he die, how will he die and by who will kill him?

I applauded his reconciliation with Norma.

My anticipation for next week’s episode is fueled by potentially seeing the raunchy chemistry between Romero and Norma unfold. In addition, there is excitement to witness the chemistry between the tragic Emma and her hero Dylan.

Norman, predictably always breaks my heart.

Highlights: 
  • Emma & Dylan romance. I love that this destined for tragedy.
  • Norman / Norma bedroom confessional scene was beyond brilliant.
Lowlights:
  • The mystery behind the swimming pool/pit. It was simply unbelievable that a stranger could dig a large ugly hole in the front of the Motel and Norma would easily consent to it continuing, without seeing the plans.
  • Romero judging Norma for lying about her husbands cause of death. The ultimatum he gave her was a little forced and seemingly inserted into the script to create additional tension, which was unnecessary.
  • The Bradley (resurrection) in Normans mind – or she is actually back (which is deliberately unclear) I find her character underwhelming.
