Red Dragon Review excerpt and link: Relatively faithful to Thomas Harris's novel, the Red Dragon arc stands apart from both its cinematic adaptations with its own aesthetic, its extreme patience of character development, and the human portrayal of Francis Dolarhyde by Richard Armitage, who apes neither Ralph Fiennes's exaggerated performance nor Tom Noonan's detached psychopath. His is the first truly pitiable Red Dragon, a man constantly fighting back his madness, and losing nearly every time. Francis's relationship with the blind Reba (Rutina Wesley) no longer feels like a blatant signifier for his struggle, but a real connection with consequences for both people when his illness gets the better of him. http://www.slantmagazine.com/dvd/review/hannibal-season-three
French actor Stanley Weber plays a Cistercian monk in one of RA's recent movies titled Pilgrimage. In a recent interview Stanley made following comments:
He plays a monk who travels to an Irish monastery after being sent by the Pope. A group of monks plan to deliver a sacred relic - a stone used to kill St Mathias - to Rome. The journey through Gaelic lands is very dangerous, therefore the monk makes a deal for security with a Norman lord. RA plays the Norman knight Godfrey's son Raymond de Merville. The latter chases the group in order to retrieve the relic. Weber said it starts as a movie about religion and faith and transforms into an adventure.
