Inventor Ron Popeil was a master of the infomercial, and was able to create compelling, memorable messages to highlight his many products. Of particular note was his “Showtime Rotisserie and BBQ,” a device that was rather hyperbolically sold with the tagline, “Set it and forget it.” If only print production was that easy .
Despite our hopes that Popeil’s tagline will extend into our printing processes, reality generally differs. While the goal of process workflow is a smooth, frictionless path from inception through delivery, bottlenecks in digital print production are a moving target, the locations of which are dependent on factors including technology, staffing, software, and training. When one element of a process either speeds up or slows down, it can directly affect other process steps and complicate that smooth-flowing ideal.
Most iconic films hinge on one killer central performance that stands above all others. But Jonathan Demme’s adaptation of
The Silence Of The Lambs centres on an incredible double-act – Sir Anthony Hopkins’ bone-chilling turn as calculating cannibal Hannibal Lecter, contrasted against Jodie Foster’s compelling turn as FBI rookie Clarice Starling. Both won Oscars for the film, a rare case of the Academy deigning to dignify a genre film with awards (it also won Best Picture, Director, and Adapted Screenplay for screenwriter Ted Tally). If it’s Hannibal who grabbed headlines, it’s Clarice who grounds the film, bringing heart to the horror – one of Jodie Foster’s most enduring performances.

Alone relies on a remote, woodsy setting and an emotionless feel to pull audiences along a grimmer road to survival.
Given we re still sitting deep in the strictly streaming period of films that will continue unforeseeably, I m grateful for anything new and remotely interesting hitting a platform I use.

Oscar tradition is for the previous year’s best actress winner to handle the best actor category at the next ceremony, and so it was at the 1992 Academy Awards when Kathy Bates announced, “And the Oscar goes to Anthony Hopkins in ‘The Silence of the Lambs.’” How fitting it was that the actors who had portrayed two of the most memorable and we dare say beloved serial killers in cinematic history would share the stage that night. Just as Bates in “Misery” burnished the character of Annie Wilkes into the cultural landscape with such memorable lines as, “I’m your No. 1 fan,” Hopkins created an unforgettable movie legend in Dr. Hannibal Lecter, who told his FBI inquisitor Clarice Starling, “A census taker once tried to test me. I ate his liver with some fava beans and a nice CHIANTI.”
