This film trailer is for Hannibal, a man who eats his victims. In this film he is in hiding, and throughout the trailer you only see him for a few seconds each time, a lot of the time he is out of focus or hiding behind something. His true self is left a mystery, making the audience want to watch the film to properly see him. It starts with the female character (Clarisse) talking, and she basically explains that he is wanted by the FBI and has killed 14 people that they know of. Writing appears during this, it first says "his genius undeniable", then.."his evil unspeakable" then as Clarisse answers the phone to Hannibal, writing says "his name..Hannibal" right at the point where we hear his voice. There are then snippets of shots from the film and you see the gradual build up to trying to find him. More writing appears, this time in smaller font saying "how long can a man stay silent" we then see sped up images of action as the music intensifies, then writing says "before he returns". Then there is more action and the writing continues to say "to the thing he does best". With a final quick shot of Hannibal you see in writing the award winning Anthony Hopkins and award nominee Julianne Moore, it then says "in a Ridely Scott film" and finally you see the title again Hannibal. This means the name will stick in your head to make sure you go and watch it. Then right at the end is the date of release so you now know when to go watch it.
