Still Screaming: 'The Silence of the Lambs' Celebrates its 35th Anniversary

This month marks the 35th anniversary of the arrival of The Silence of the Lambs in UK cinemas.
Widely regarded as one of the greatest thrillers of all time, it also created one of the most memorable movie villains ever, the cannibalistic serial killer Dr. Hannibal Lecter.
As part of the 35th anniversary celebrations, the film has once again been shown in US cinemas.
From New York, Tom Brook looks at how he covered the landmark film back in 1991, and its original impact on audiences.
