After retiring from the Bureau, FBI agent Will Graham (Norton) is recruited back once more to hunt down "The Tooth Fairy," a madman who kills whole families and then covers their eyes with pieces of broken mirror. Needing help in finding the killer, Will reluctantly goes to visit Dr. Hannibal Lecter (Hopkins - whose portrayal of the character in "The Silence Of The Lambs" earned him an Academy Award® for Best Actor in 1991), the cannibal who almost killed him and sent him into an early retirement. Dr. Lecter feeds Will little bits of information, but of course he knows much more than he's willing to divulge. The killer's name is Francis Dolarhyde (Fiennes), a mild mannered man working at a film processing lab who is wrestling with his own inner demons. Attracted to the blind Reba McClane (Watson), Francis tries to control his murderous urges when he's with her but when he feels betrayed by Reba and he knows the FBI is right behind him, Francis can't help but go after one more family - and Hannibal leads him right to it. "Red Dragon" is based on the book by Thomas Harris. (Tricia Littrell)
