OT: First there was THE SILENCE...

[wire chief]

...OF THE LAMBS, now the eternal silence of Jonathon Demme. Gone at 73. Rest in peace.

A good movie, a better book. Mr Demme did a great job directing. The cast was beyond outstanding. "I'm having an old friend for dinner."

RIP. My favorite of his was Stop Making Sense (The Talking Heads)

Tom Hanks praised him on the Late Show last night.

It was a good book, but it was a very good movie. Anthony Hopkins conveyed a deep sense of menace with little other than the intonation of his voice. It was a very impressive acting job.
