A mask of villainy isn’t something you get right on the first try.

Does your prey scream in terror on first sight? Does your mask haunt the dreams of the innocent when you’re up to nefarious doings elsewhere? Or do the other villains at the club laugh at you instead of cower?

The Criterion Collection has brought to light the reels of film showing the masks rejected for Anthony Hopkins’ classic character Hannibal Lecter when filming Silence of the Lambs, so you can decided if they made the right choice or not.

Full story at The Criterion Collection via Neatorama.
