After a horribly long day, I needed a mental break. I threw on my parka, with the raccoon fur around the hood, and I went to see a movie. But what to see? Something sweet and stupid and harmless. At the movie theater on Second Avenue and Twelfth, a title caught my eye. I thought, ‘That seems good. Jodie Foster and a puffy, friendly farm animal, a butterfly.’ I unzipped my jacket and headed inside to see a movie I’d heard the name of but knew nothing about. It was called Silence Of The Lambs.
