Given Will’s confinement in a cell barely the size of a phone box for formal interviews, the movements of characters are thrown into sharp focus, further emphasising his position of isolation, and how close all the characters are to teetering off the knife edge and into Hannibal’s dinner.Īway from Lecter’s butchery, Will has found a new mental pastime of fishing, a sport entirely about patience, calm and control – and one that just happens to be done standing still. The music selection in Hannibal is as much an essential part of the experience as the camera work, and its black humour mixed in with the macabre never fails to disappoint.įootwork, and the precarious steps the characters take, are seemingly a key tell in this episode, from the clues revealed in a victim’s final footsteps to those forward and backward taken by Hannibal and his therapist. Of course, the good Doctor is always one step ahead of us – an excellent pun given one laugh-out-loud moment of vicious, culinary experimentation juxtaposed with a frantic classical chorus. This means we can know for a fact when Will Graham is being honest – or do we? The recently-explained pendulum swing motion used in his crime scene reconstructions now has a swathe of alternate meanings – and when Hannibal seems deliberately naive. For the first time, we are given the chance to see with our own eyes how the murderous scenarios Will was previously called in to solve play out.

While the inventiveness of these murders are what draws the morbid crowds – ok, us – to this show, we imagine as the series progresses that the their role will shift from plot to providing more of a backdrop against which Hannibal’s madness is cast into sharp relief. This week opens, again, with violence and a fast pace, picking up where the previous episode left off to check in on the “human colour palette”.
It’s all there in the second – much stronger – episode of Hannibal Season 2.
