(at around 7 mins) When FBI agent Will Graham (Edward Norton) realizes that Dr. Hannibal Lecter (Sir Anthony Hopkins) is the killer for whom he is looking, Lecter stabs him with a knife, but Graham fends him off with arrows. This may be a subtle reference to how Hannibal was exposed in the novel. One of his victims was found horribly mutilated with multiple stab wounds. Graham discovered that the victim had a scar from an old wound that was caused by an arrow, and finds out that Dr. Hannibal Lecter was the physician who had treated the wound. Graham visits Lecter a few times in the hope that Lecter may be able to provide a helpful lead. During one visit, he notices an illustration in one of Lecter's books, depicting a man with the same stab wounds as the victim, which makes him realize that Lecter is the killer. However, just as in this movie, Lecter surprises Graham and nearly stabs him to death.
