Фуллер, спасибо тебе за канон.
Ну и сама мысль радует...
UPD:Mads Mikkelsen:
"Lecter is a man of opportunity, and he sees opportunities everywhere. Every day is a new day, and every day is a chance for something beautiful to happen. When he sees Will, he recognizes himself to a degree. [Hannibal] has empathy, but [he] uses it as a tool; Will has empathy, but he doesn’t know what to do with it. Lecter sees an opportunity to open this man’s eyes and see his full potential realized. And he also sees the opportunity for a friend, which is probably not what he’s had too many of. Even though Hannibal is the puppeteer, he really loves Will."
