This month is Masterclass Month at Catching Up On Cinema!
September 2024 marks our 6th anniversary of podcasting, and to commemorate the occasion, we take a month to do a deep dive on a popular, long-lived movie franchise.
For this year's Masterclass, we'll be reviewing the Hannibal Lecter series of films!
Created by author Thomas Harris, Hannibal Lecter is a charismatic serial killer that, across multiple novels, films, and most recently, TV series, has consistently captivated global audiences since his inception in 1981.
This week, our Masterclass begins with a review of Michael Mann's, Manhunter (1986)!
Moody and filled with sumptuous visuals, Manhunter is an adaptation of Thomas Harris' first Hannibal Lecter related novel, Red Dragon.
A commercial failure at the time of release, Manhunter has been retroactively reappraised, and is now a highly regarded film in Mann's filmography.
While the character of Hannibal Lecter is only featured in a small portion of the film, Brian Cox's portrayal represents the first instance of the character realized on film.
