Hannibal - Primavera - Advanced Preview

"Hannibal" started its season in a very unexpected way. Last week season premiere divided a lot of fans. While some people thought that the episode was very interesting and offered the opportunity to develop some characters others thought that it was disappointing because they didn’t tell us what happened after the butchery in Hannibal’s house.
In my opinion, it was a great idea because we focused on two characters and deepened their feelings regarding their new life. This ellipsis was brilliant because it allowed us to guess by ourselves what happened during this time and try to put the puzzle together and that’s how I can differentiate a really good show from an ordinary one. A show where they tell you everything and a show where they push you to use your imagination and analyze everything so you can read between the lines.

Anyway, if last week's episode divided the fans, this week's episode will not. With this episode, we can say that ''Hannibal’’ is back on track. For those who were disappointed last week, you’re going to get a lot of answers and see what happened in those 8 months. However, you’re not going to get all the answers again because this week's episode is also going to focus on two characters. I can tell you one of them: Will, but the other character is a very unexpected surprise you won’t see coming (I think i’ve learned how to tease now, right?).
More seriously, the episode is mainly focused on Will and his ‘’new’’ life, because in a way, I think that what happened in Hannibal’s house changed him. I don’t know how far it changed him, but it did. We follow him through the episode searching for Hannibal in Florence, taking the path that he took for the last 8 months.

That’s why I think that this episode is very similar to the last one and also very different. Different because it gives us a lot of answers and clues concerning what happened after the butchery and similar because it focuses on one character especially and it leaves us very skeptical regarding his motives. Indeed, last week we were confused by Badelia’s motives: is she forced to be in this '’relationship’’ with Hannibal or she’s willingly staying with him? This week, as the relationship between Hannibal and Will is in a very complex position, we are asking ourselves: is he searching Hannibal in the context of a ‘’hunt’’ or is he searching him to repent himself and try to reconnect with Hannibal? Frankly, I can’t really tell but I think they're going with the second one and this doesn't displease me at all.


In this episode you’ll also discover a new character who is going to be important in the next episodes in my opinion. He will interact with Will to try to understand his motives as he's a detective and the Florence police department discovered the murder Hannibal committed in the previous episode. You'll learn that this detective had a previous history with our serial killer.

And as usual, the aesthetic is perfect, flawless and exquisite. On the other hand Hugh Dancy and Mads Mikkelsen are tremendously talented. And finally, to tease you one last time: remember that scene in the first trailer when Will is searching Hannibal in a cellar saying « Hannibal? I forgive you »? Well, this scene is in this episode.
Oh, and the most shocking scene of the episode is related to the other character accompanying Will. The shocker is not his identity (although his identity is shocking too!) but through the episode you will realize something and it’s going to be a very big surprise. I didn’t see it coming at all. You'll find out soon enough !

  6. I'm thinking it could be Chilton, too...

  7. Hmmm... Maybe Abigail follows Will throughout the episode, but you find out in the end that she's dead and only in his head.

  8. Chilton is coming back in episode 4, I think. I definitely think it's Abigail, but maybe they try and trick you into thinking she survived and then you realize she's only in Will's head.

  15. Thanks for the great preview and yeah, you definitely know how to tease. I can't wait to have Will and the amazingly insanely talented Hugh Dancy back on the screen. I am very much looking forward to this episode, even more than the premiere itself. I am concerned about what you said about Will wanting to reconnect with Hannibal instead of catching him though. But then again, they played with that duality for the entire second half of Season 2 and it worked fine, so probably it works here as well. Very excited for this.

  16. I agree, this show is very binge-worthy, i wish we could marathon the whole season instead of watching weekly. I actually manage to do that for Season 2 and then watched in a day (LOL!) but I can't really wait this time.

  17. You're right to be excited, this episode is better than the first one. And I think that indeed, last season they managed to turn the relationship between Will and Hannibal into a very special and complex one so I'm excited to see if they're going to deepen that or not. Wait and see.

  18. This show is such a tour de force that it is a shame more viewers are not watching to catch its rich artistry. I think that a misstep was made in not having Will make at least an appearance in Episode 1 even though it was mesmerizing on its own merit. The show may be called Hannibal but Will is its heart and soul. Your preview was excellent and look forward to hearing more from you.

  19. I agree entirely that despite being called Hannibal, Will is the heart and soul of the show.

  20. Wow! That is a great preview! I can't wait to watch! Thank you!

  21. As much as i love Hannibal,there is no show without Will.Missed him so much in the premiere.Can't wait!!

    ReplyDelete
  22. I agree with both of you but I think that they managed to do a great episode last week even if Will was not in it.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Thank you very much, hope you'll enjoy the episode ! :)

  24. So you're not going to be disappointed this week. Enjoy !
