The Oscar-winning actor’s autobiography combines vulnerability with bloody mindedness and belligerenceIt’s the greatest entrance in movie history – and he doesn’t move a muscle.FBI rookie Clarice Starling must walk along the row of cells until she reaches Dr Lecter’s reinforced glass tank, where the man himself is simply standing, his face a living skull of satanic malice, eerily immobile in his form-fitting blue prison jumpsuit – immobile, that is, until such time as he launches himself against the glass, making that extraordinary hissing-slavering sound.
