Psychological theory is the association of personality, learning and criminal behavior that shows in the film.

1. Hannibal Lecter
He is a pure psychopath, a cannibal who eats multiple people, he enjoy making other people feel uncomfortable, and he also find it interesting by hearing unpleasant memories and he also don't mind if he kill other people.

Clarisse Starling
She has a post traumatic stress disorder due to nightmare or night terror, she is an FBI agent who saved catherine from buffalo bill's hand.

Buffalo Bill
He is a homosexual who aims to be a woman. he skins every female victim and makes them lotion their skin befor being killed and he also puts an insect inside the throat his victim. he is a horrible killer!

2. The movie silence of the lamb has a theme of where the characters there has a various psychological issues or problems which has something to do with the psychological theory where in it relates to the study of the mind. In that theory, it emphasizes the somehow bad behavior or how people think which affects the people and society. like what was being shown in the film the story focuses on how they solved certain crime made by a psychopath who is buffalo bill. A person with psychological disorder can somehow become insensitive, selfish, aggressive and much worst if it became dangerous to the point that they don't mind of hurting or killing people.

3. The gender symbols being utilized in the text are:
- Gun, this gun was being used by Clarice. since she is an FBI agent and is criminology graduate she is said to be a policewoman. her profession shows that even if she's a woman, she can still be able to do men's job where in fact she has a huge contribution to them because she's the one who saved catherine and killed buffalo bill. it simply shows that, even woman can do what man can do. in fact we are sometimes way better than them.

- Lipstick, this one was being used by buffalo bill. if a guys uses lipstick and tries to put some make ups obviously his role there is a gay.

- Handcuff
these one was used by policemen. it just shows that they are strong by being able to put a handcuff on somebody's hand, to make somebody silent and follow them. it just symbolizes on how dominant guys are that they sometimes uses their strengths to rule a certain group or person.

Number 2 question
psychological

# data[].attributes.body
1. The psychological disposition of Hannibal Lecter is a psychopath who is very clever in his field (psychiatry). He is fond of making others feel and remember their worst scenarios in life like what he did to Clarice Starling. Clarice Starling has a trauma from the lambs that she was not able to save way back in her childhood she thinks that if she will be able to save the last victim of the buffalo bill case, then she may not have to be guilty anymore. Lastly, Buffalo bill was the serial killer in the movie. He loves to get women's skin because for him it gives him excitement and he uses it to make himself a woman.

2. In the movie, the personality principles may be related. The ID principle (pleasure principle) can be seen on how buffalo bill kills his victim because through killing and getting the skins of woman makes him satisfied especially when he uses it to make himself a woman physically. The super ego is included as well. In the movie, Clarice Starling seeks for justice for all the victims of the case. Meaning, the moral that she has became her strength to solve the case of buffalo bill.

3. The gender symbols utilized here are (1) Gun, (2)women skins, (3) the sewing machine and (4) lipstick. (1) The gun made the character of Clarice Starling tough because she was able to do the usual job of a man which is being a police officer and also she was the one who ended the buffalo bill case. (2) The women skins made the gender role of women demoted because this is used by a male character who is the killer in the movie (Buffalo Bill). (3) The sewing machine is included because it was part of Buffalo's way of connecting the women's skins to make himself a woman. In here, he feels like he reached his fantasy being a woman.(4) The lipstick because it was used by a man in the movie.

# data[].attributes.body
1) Hannibal lecter is the cannibal killer in the film that somehow has something to do with what traumatic experience he had. Hannibal Lecter’s psychological problems began with the murder of his sister, this triggered his post-traumatic stress disorder. Lecter isolates himself from others like in the orphanage where he was seen as a loner and an outcast, this may have led to him feeling disconnected with others- demonstrated by the fact that he does not even speak to them. So, we can say that he really is an anti-social.
Clarice starling is an FBI trainee, she experienced post traumatic disorder, she always had a nightmare because she had witnessed the killings of those lambs that appears in her dreams.
Buffalo Bill experienced a lot of bad things in life, he does not know his biological father and even her own mother left him, he lives in the orphanage and he is good in sewing.

2) If I were to situate the psychological theory in the film "The silence of lambs" is that it is obvious. Because when we say psychological theory it has something to do with how an individual or a person act in a certain situation or it has something to do  with the psychological disposition of a person- the behavior, way of thinking, wrong doing. Where in we can witnessed all in the film, they kill people because they are under or being dominated by what they have been through. For example is that the character of Hannibal lecter, he kills people and eat them afterwards, they are instances that he serves it for dinner, and the reason why hannibal did that is because he is under his traumatic experienced which he had witnessed by his naked eye how his sister is being cannibalized and because of that experience Hannibal also became a cannibal since he is hauted by memories of the past.

3) gun- we all know that when we heard the word "gun"  we usually think of a man, because it promotes masculinity,  in the story it was being portrayed by HAnnibal lecter and Buffalo Bill.

lambs- lambs is somehow for feminin because lambs are gentle, sweet, submissive just like women, it also showsfear and weakness, it was being portrayed by Clarice Starling, She dreams about lambs because she has tragiic experience about it.
Skin lotion- we all know that skin lotion is usually promotes femininity, that is qhy it is one of the gender symbol use in the story.

1. What is the psychological disposition of the following characters in the film?

Hannibal lecter is a kind of person who has a desire to eat another human. It begins when he witnessed how his parents died and also his sister mischa who has been eaten by 2 russian soldiers. When he was in the orphanage Hannibal never talks and always showing aggresive behavior towards other people and he was not obeying the rules. Buffalo bills is a murderer and wants to be a woman by making a suit made from woman skins and Clarice Starling is an FBI and she is like a man who have a job as a police officer which I think that job is suited for the boys.

2. How would you situate a psychological theory in the film "Silence of the Lambs"? I would situate a psychological theory in the film on how hannibal Lecter Behaves. As we all know psychological theory deals on how character behaves in the text. Hannibal Lecter who have a disorder due to his past experiences. He is mentally ill who kill other people and he has desire for their flesh.

3. What are the gender symbols utilized in the text? Give atleast 3. Identify the relevance in promoting the gender role of each of the characters? The first gender symbol is the gun used by clarice starling. I think that gun is most suitable for boys because it is so dangerous to use but as an FBI Officer clarice starling demoted the gender symbol. The second symbol is Make up, Jame Gumb wanted to be a woman so he uses make up which is not common, make up is usually for girls so he demoted na gender symbol. Last is the butterfly which symbolized freedom and change and it is usually being used for woman but jame gumb used it in the film.

QUESTION #1
The characters of the movie silence of the lamb particularly, Hannibal Lecter, Clarice Starling and Buffalo Bill has a Psychological disposition. Hannibal Lecter was a forensic psychiatrist and cannibalistic serial killer. Lecter was first an antagonist at the first novel and later became a protagonist on the third one. Clarice Starling, a student preparing for a life in the FBI. The Silence of the Lambs was chosen for the title because it is Clarice Starling's ultimate goal for the bloodcurdling screams of the lambs in her nightmares to cease. When she was younger, she witnessed the slaughtering of a herd of lambs and to this day she awakens horrified some nights to escape the nightmares that she so longs to end. She believes deep down that if she catches Buffalo Bill herself she will sleep soundly in the silence of the lambs. Buffalo Bill, whose real name is Jame Gumb, particularly targets young women for victims. He is trans-gendered and had tried unsuccessfully in the past to have sex-change operation, because of that he get frustrated. Like lecter he also had traumatic childhood.

QUESTION #2
Lipstick, the lipstick use by Buffalo Bill in the story was a symbolism of gender demoted, because he is only a man who once want to be a girl. He is a homosexual who have a disorder.
Gun - in the story the main character, or the protagonist which is no other than Clarice Starling uses a gun, for the reason the he a student who wants to be an FBI, but we all know that one thing that best represents a real man is a gun.
Lamb - the lamb in the story simple represents the suffering of the women who killed by the serial killer Buffalo Bill.

QUESTION #3
We can connect the psychological theory in this kind of story or movie, for the reason almost of the characters have psychological disorders that lead them to do wrong doings, specifically to kill people. It is very obvious that a cannibal person, who eats and kill an innocent people has a serious disorder.

1. Lotion- Bill is threatening Catherine with the torture of being hosed by cold water unless she applies lotion to her body. Bill 'skins' his victims, and the lotion keeps the skin malleable and hydrated to facilitate its removal.
Butterfly Pupae- One of the biggest clues in identifying the identity of Buffalo Bill is also the smallest one: a bug cocoon found inside a corpse's throat and extracted in an extremely disturbing scene. It is usually associated with woman.
Dress- Buffalo Bill skinning the victims to make a 'dress' out of the skin.
2. The Silence of the Lamb is a film about a young woman named Clarise Starling an FBI trainee who is  involved in the case of the notorious killer Buffalo Bill. He used to remove the skin of his victim to make a cloth out of it. Inorder for Clarisse to cracked the investigation she need to gain some information to another serial killer who is Hannibal Lecter. Hannibal Lecter is a doctor, he is kept under the extra ordinary security measure because of his intellegence and strength that he may use to harm other. Its major theme is cannibalism. In the study of  Freud sucking or oral phase of development is the central focus of infants pleasure. Since both Hannibal Lecter and Buffalo Bill has a traumatic experience during their childhood we can somehow say that they didn't successfuly achieve this stage back then. Another traumatic experience that they encountered is the death of their love once that leads them to depression. Depression is the root of their psychological state which is being psychopath.  Aside from that Freud point out that people who's trying to eat or swallow another person they think that they can be like time. Buffalo Bill is a trans gender but he fails to have a sex change. Imitating the role of a woman is one of his character in the story. He gets pleasure in designing dresses that is made in woman's skin.
3. Clarice Starling live in a small town in West Virginia. She was raised by her father, a police officer who was killed in when she was about ten years old. Clarice then went to stay with her uncle on a farm, but soon ran away. She is a student at the FBI Academy. She hopes to join the Behavioral Science Unit as a psychological investigator. Clarice is a fresh new recruit who is smart and hard working. That dedication is the reason why she is tasked to interview Hannibal Lecter, an imprisoned killer whose very intelligent. Hannibal has information about Buffalo Bill, a serial killer, and Clarice must win his cooperation for the case. Clarice don't want to give her personal information to Hannibal Lecter. Yet when Hannibal offers her information in exchange for details on her personal life, Clarice may have to overcome her past to solve her first assignment.
Buffalo Bill- His real name in the story is Jame Gumb. He is a serial killer who brutally kill his victims his targets are young women. He is trans-gendered and had tried unsuccessfully in the past to have sex-change operation. His frustration and confusion regarding his own gender identity makes his behave like a psychopath. Moreover, similar to Lecter, Gumb has also had a traumatic childhood. His alcoholic mother abandoned him when he was only two years old. After living his childhood in various foster homes, he was adopted by his grandparents, who become his first victims. After killing his victim, he usually places a Death’s Head moth in the victim’s throat. Buffalo Bill make dress out of his victims skin.

What is the psycholigical disposition of the ff. characters in the story?
Hannibal Lecter-Hannibal Lecter  is a psychopath psychiatrist who kills and somekind of cannibal because he ate the police in order for him to get his freedom. He is also a smart and knowledgeable  person because he help Starling in his investigation and in order to arrest and imprisoned Buffalo Bill. He also shows a sarcastic attitude towards Starling in their first meeting, but I can say that he just want his freedom and he is willing to do everything that sets him free and things that makes him happy
Clarice Starling-Clarice Starling is a strong woman because even he is alone in his journey as an intern, she keeps on doing whats best for her. She is also a brave woman in a way that she interviewed the most wanted prisoner who is a Lecter. She is also a physically strong woman and she is an intelligent girl through out his investigation. She is smart when it comes in connecting clues. She is also a caring person because he somehow help Lecter and she thinks of her family even.
Buffalo Bill-Buffalo Bill on the other handis a killer. He kills a lot of girls. It is obvious that Bill has an insecurities in the other girls that made him to his condition. He also psychopath. He killed the girls, He kidnapped and skinned them for his own pleasure. It is obvious that he is insane and nothing to do but to sew faces. He also let one of his victim to swallow a caterpillar just for its silence and to do what he want to do. But in the end, Starling made her mission successful and that Bill was imprisoned.
2. Gender symbols.
Symbol used to utilize the text, first is the Gun used by Starling. It promotes that even she is a girl, she is eligible to use that because she is knowledgeable enough and she is strong like a man who uses guns. She is also in a job of a man which is an investigator it obviously shows that gender doesn't define her strength and weaknesses. Lecter uses a hairpin that he uses in order for him to ecape. And that hairpin is not only use by woman for them to be comfortable but for Lecter to get his freedom. At last is the Make up and sewing machine used by Bill, because this things he used is the things that makes him happy and with that he gets his pleasure. We can say that he overcome his loveliness and he is confident with that.
3. Psychological Theory
The situation that shows a Psychological theory is exactly the way Lecter thinks. He understand things and give his idea to Starling in order for him to help her in her investigation. Lecter shows his ability in thinking. He uses his knowledge and did not let affect the barrier between Satrling and him. Starling also shows psychological theory in a way that she connects every situations and clues and her physical strength to get and solved the Bill issue.

What is the psychological disposition of the following characters in the story?
*Hannibal Lecter - A former pyschiatrist. He is  cannibal, pyschopath and a serial killer. He's an intelligent man who knows a lot of things specially about pyschology. His behavior is not normal, to the point that he will kill people for the sake of his pleasure as a cannibal. He always have psychoanalysis when talking to someone, he also have that love to music and art. A manipulativer person.
Clarice Starling - A strong and brave woman. She is a FB trainee and she was given a task to investigate the case of Bufalo Bill. Dr. Lecter asked her some questions with the exchange of th information that she wants to know. She has a Post Traumatic Disorder because during her child days, she always hear the noise a lamb who's getting killed, and she wanted to save it, but she can't. that became the reason why she always have a dream about it.

Buffalo Bill - The man who kills women. Also has a Post Traumatic Stress Disorder because of what he experienced on his past. He feels nothing killing women. He is also a manipulative person.

2. What are the gender symbolizes on the text? Give atleast 3 ....
*Gun - Shows aggresiveness in the story. (Not just Clarice, but also on the other characters like Hannibal, Bill and the policemen.)
*Lotion - a girl things used by women to take care of their skin. Symbolizes a thing that is commonly used by women.

*Lipstick/Make Up- Usually used by women. On the character of Buffalo Bill, since it seems like he wanted to be a woman, he puts make up/lipstick on himself.

3. How would you situate a Pyschological Theory in the film?
-  The Silence of the Lambs written by Thomas Harris was a great story where he shows the psychological situation of a person. The characters have different psychological disorder that made them act base of their role. For example, Buffalo Bill and Dr. Hannibal, they are not normal. They are manipulative and loves to kill people. Their past experiences affects their psychological situation, and their pyschological situation affects their action that they are doing. The story shows how such psychological situation affects the life and action of a person.

# data[].attributes.body
1.
Gun -  it is being used to promote the role of a policeman, and also in the film it used by a woman to promote the essence of the characters role. It is being used by the men that's why it is demoted by the character clarice, but it is being promoted in the situation where in it is being used by the FBI agents.
Lipstick - it is being used by buffalo bill that will show his pursuance to become a woman, he uses this as a symbol of feminism It is one of the most feminist thing in the world that why when a guy uses this it is being demoted, just like in the situation of Buffalo Bill it is being used to promote his trans sexuality.
Lotion - a kind of beauty product which uses by the woman specifically to make their skin beautiful and slender. It promotes the feministic idea in the text that buffalo bill is indeed a trans sexual person who wants to become a woman that why he killed a woman and get her skin and make it an accessory for his body.

2. I can situate the a psychological theory in the film by means of analyzing and focusing on the characters mind set, the whole story is actually a product of different minds, where in all the characters were producing different psyche to make the story more intense and more interesting. Our mind has an ability to think and it's the source of our actions. So whatever you think or whatever you have in your mind will happen to you, just like in the film, they have thought of their situation and they received the consequence. I've seen different psyches in the film the id which is the abnormality of a mind through actions which also express the limitless pursuance of something. And also the ego was presented in the film by the protagonist by balancing her mind to the situation she has. And the superego which is internal feeling of someone not to do something, and this film is really interesting one because of the combination of the psychological theory and feminist theory.

3. Hannibal Lecter - he is a doctor particularly psychiatrist, who was imprison because of murder, he actually killed people by eating them, that was the result of his psychological disposition, he's so intelligent, he can predict, and analyze mind set of other people by means of conveying with them.

Clarice Starling - She is a trainee in the academe of the FBI, she serves as a detective, in solving the cases of killing women by the serial killer buffalo bill. She has a childhood trauma when her father died and also her mother. She stayed in her cousin's house and stayed there briefly and she runaway immediately because of some reason, that's why her mind set was of anxiety and her situation is very mysterious, but she is good in her path being a detective.

Buffalo Bill - he is the serial killer who kills many women and getting them skinned after he killing them, he actually a trans sexual person, who wants to become a woman that's why he is getting skin from other woman, and he is so confused on his situation, his mind is full of trauma and anxiety and that's the reason why he killed many people particularly women.

3.- LIPSTICK is being used by bill bufallo in the film the silence of the lamb bufallo uses make up that should be used only by woman but since he is a man that uses a thing of a woman i think gender symbol here is demoted.
- GUN is being used by clarice starling in the film silence of the lamb which is the gun symbolizes masculity and should be used by man but in here clarice uses it because she is an FBI secret agent.
She uses it eventhough she is a woman.
- DRESS dress is commonly used by a woman but in this film it is being used by buffalo which is a man since he wants to look like a woman he is sewing a dress from his victims And he only targets woman.

1. Hannibal Lecter
-A condition that can be attributed to hannibal lecter is Anti-social Personality Disorder as a result of severely traumatic experiences in the past. It can sometimes be characterized with impulsive or violent behavior.
Clarise Starling
-When she was younger ,she witnessed the slaughtering of a herd of lambs and to this day she awakens horrified some nights to escape the nightmares that she so longs to end.She believes deep down that if she catches buffalo bill herself she will sleep soundly in the silence of the lamb.
Buffalo Bill
-Buffalo Bill whose real name is Jame Gumb ,he particularly targets young women for victims.He is transgendered and had tried unsuccessfully in the past to have sex-change operation.The culmination of his frustration and confusion regarding his own gender identity make his behave like a psychopath.Gumb has also a traumatic childhood.

2.
As a child, Clarice took action by kidnapping the lamb to save it from being slaughtered; she actively joined the FBI to go after killers, like the ones who killed her father; encountering Buffalo Bill, she tries to apprehend him herself.The FBI is concerned with its discovery of an increasing number of victims and the progress it is making toward locating Buffalo Bill; Clarice Starling is concerned with her progress as an FBI trainee; Buffalo Bill is concerned with the progress of his “suit of skin”;  Hannibal Lecter is concerned with the progress being made toward better accommodations and escape.Members of society cannot feel secure with serial killers on the loose, and expect the FBI to remove that threat.  No amount of security, even steel bars and plexiglass walls, seems to protect society, and especially Dr. Chilton, from Hannibal Lecter.  Clarice’s sense of security as a child was destroyed by her father’s death and seeing and hearing lambs slaughtered.
Twenty-five years on, Clarice Starling remains one of Hollywood’s most memorable female protagonists. But she’s also a reminder of just how timid mainstream film can be.

3.
Serial killer Buffalo Bill wants to become a woman by sewing himself DRESS made out of his female victims’ skins. He’s a kind of nightmare image of Clarice herself, who is trying to shed her femininity in the workplace and model herself after her deceased policeman father.The movie adores Lecter in all his cannibalistic evil and hyperbolic cultured intelligence. And so it gives him continued power over its heroine.Lecter acts as a sort of twist FATHER figure to Clarice throughout the film, feeding her hints and leads so that she can track down her quarry. Despite her intelligence and her ambition, Silence of the Lambs puts Clarice in the position of trading on her youth and her attractiveness. She solves the case not just because of her initiative or drive, but because Lecter likes her. He is the director of his own film, sending her here and there across the screen with his calculating, eager eyes. Men act threateningly towards women:  Miggs makes threatening gestures towards Clarice, which she ignores and he follows through by attacking her.  Buffalo Bill threatens the Senator’s daughter with the hose if she doesn’t use the skin cream.  He threatens Clarice by cocking his GUN, and she responds by shooting him.

Silence of the Lambs Symbol

Dr Lecter tells Clarice that when she manages to identify Buffalo Bill and prevent him from killing anyone else, the screaming of the lambs in her dreams will stop and their silence will symbolize the release of her guilt; she will have regained her power and that is why she will not hear them anymore. The silence of the lambs will symbolize that no more women will go to Buffalo Bill like lambs to the slaughter.
Women's Skin Symbol

Buffalo Bill identifies as a woman and so to him the act of wearing the skin of his female victims is a symbol of putting on their womanhood and becoming a woman. Although the clothing he wears gives him the appearance of femininity this symbolizes to him the act of pretending to be female; wearing the skin of a woman symbolizes his actually becoming one.
Buffalo Bill's Nickname Symbol

Wild Bill Cody, aka Buffalo Bill, was renowned for killing and skimming his prey and this is also what the unidentified serial killer does to the women he kidnaps. The nickname that has been given to him, Buffalo Bill, is a symbol of this modus operandi and of the brutal way in which he hunts, kills and skins his victims.

Buffalo Bills
He has a Gender Identity Disorder as a shown in his dance scene where he puts on make up etc. He was rejected for sex change surgery thats why he abducted womans, removed their skin and used it as a suit.

2. Because those characters has their own Psychological Dispositions.
Clarice has Achievement Motivation, she has a desire of wantint to do her best as to meetor go above the standard of excellence.
Hannibal has Social Personality Disorder wherein he acts socially wrong like eating parts of his victims
And Buffalo Bills has role confusion.

3. Gun - used by Clarice because shes a student at FBI.
Womans Skin - Used by Buffalo Bills to gives him the apperance of feminity or to pretend that he's a woman
Dress - used also by Buffalo because he wants to be a woman.

Those gender symbols are demoted because it was not used by the dedicated gender itself. Like the gun. Gun is for man but Clarise using it that supposed to be a man use it. And also a womans skin and dress used by Buffalo. He's a man, he's not supposed to be using those things.

When we say Histrionic personality disorder is characterized by pattern of excessive attention seeking, emotion instability, and self-dramatization. Seeking to become a woman and targeting on a senator’s daughter shows his desire for complete attention.

Transvestic fetishism is known as cross-dressing.Buffalo Bills enjoyed makeup and dressing up in women’s cloth. He had entire secret basement filled with women clothing including the one that he was making out of victims’ skin.

Transsexualism is remarked by strong and persistent cross-gender identification and persistent discomfort with one’s biological sex or inappropriateness in the gender role of that sex.

Clarice shows a post traumatic stress disorder  wherein she got it when she witnessed slaughtered lambs. As a child and being unable to save those lambs cause her to have this disorder and for her saving Catherine will rid her of this guilt.
Buffalo Bill shows a Gender Identity disorder since he is a homosexual his disorder show by skinning overweight females and make it a suit for himself so that he can feel that he is female. He also shows APD since he feels no regret of murdering woman for his own personal gain.

2.  The  psychological theory in the movie was evidently seen on the characters of  Hannibal and Buffalo somehow on Clarice also. Hannibal and Buffalo are serial killers and feels no empathy about murdering and the feelings of other people. Both of them had a past that maybe led to these disorders. Hannibal’s parents during WW2 were killed and his sister  was used for food when there is shortage that time on the other hand Buffalo underwent an abusive childhood but it’s not stated clearly. Hannibal and Buffalo shows a lot of wrongdoing which is obviously not a doings of a normal person specifically murdering people without regretting it and skinning women for the sake of himself.

3.   Gun :   Clarice she is an FBI trainee and we all know that that kind of work is usually for men and gun symbolize as gender is demoted.
Lotion when Buffalo forced  his victims to use it before he skins them. It promotes gender role since lotions are commonly used by women.
Lipstick as used by Buffalo since he wants to become/ looks like a girl he uses some make up since make up is a symbol for women the gender is demoted.
The lamb which symbolizes woman’s fear and suffering .

1. Alter analytical psychological condition of the three main characters in the novel in a purpose to compare their psychological development, the sublimation in particular. the writer can find the traumatic experience and about kinds of self-defense mechanism. Based on the life of Hannibal Lecter. his mentality suffer for traumatic experience after undergoing and seeing his sister being cannibalized. This traumatic experience causes his character changing in the later years. Hannibal Lecter. a smart. genuine. and campasionate kid turns into a cannibalistic serial killer. In fulfilling the drive to take revenge. he manage himself to have a well known and well educated person. who has name among the society. Lecter only entered medical faculty, but he also known as a respective psychologist eventhough he never learn formally in school. His aptitude capability in finding himself in the society is the form of successful sublimation.

Buffalo Bill on the other hand. has undergone several bad experience during his
life; left by his parents, not knowing his biological father. living in orphanage, fostered by his grandparents which later killed. jailed and living in mental institution. Buffalo Bill. however can show his work in sewing. His ability in sewing can be classified into the form of sublimation. because sublimation itself is the process of changing the impulse in the form of anxiety. anger, sadness. regret or another guilty feeling into positive and productive outcome in which society believe as something on accord or valuable.

Clarice Starling an FBI trainee suffers from Post Traumatic Disorder when she as a child experienced seeing the lambs getting killed. From that day onwards she always had nightmares about the lambs. She feels that is she can save Catherin she can be free from guilt.

2. The film, The Silence of the Lambs, which follows closely the novel by Thomas Harris, is about a young woman in training with the FBI, Clarise Starling, who becomes involved in the pursuit of a serial killer who skins his female victims.  In order to get ideas about the serial killer, she is sent to interrogate another serial killer in a state prison, Dr. Hannibal Lecter.  He is a psychiatrist who was convicted of having killed and cannibalized patients.  Dr. Lecter is kept under extraordinary security measures because of his inventive intelligence, strength and ferocity combined with his penchant for mutilating careless attendants with his teeth.  The physical action of the film centers around the search for the serial killer, referred to as “Buffalo Bill,” but the emotional action centers around four face to face verbal confrontations between Clarise Starling and Dr. Lecter.

With a cannibalistic psychiatrist as its central character, it is not surprising that we should look to this film for fantasies about the earliest, oral phase of development, in which sucking and, later, biting are the central focus of the infant’s pleasure.  Freud and other early psychoanalysts, particularly Melanie Klein, wrote about an infantile fantasy that by swallowing or eating another creature or person, we become like them (an early version of “you are what you eat”).  In Totem and Taboo, (1913) he wrote about primitive tribes that worshipped an animal, the “totem”, and would eat the animal in a ritual meal in order to take on its powerful characteristics.  In Mourning and Melancholia (1917), Freud suggested that mourners and some depressed patients unconsciously fantasize that they have taken in a valued person who has been lost to them through death or for some other reason.  He pointed out that mourners frequently adopt some characteristics of the deceased and that depressed people often attack themselves with reproaches that would better fit a valued person who has been lost to them in some way.  Freud speculated that one of the child’s earliest means of loving and holding onto a loved object was by incorporating the object, devouring it in fantasy in order to have the object and its desirable qualities inside itself.

1.WHAT IS THE PSYCHOLOGICAL DISPOSITION OF THE FOLLOWING CHARACTERS IN THE FILM?

·        Hannibal Lecter is one of the character who likes to kill people and sometimes kill people close to them, Lecter a psychiatrist has killed patients before just like Bill they do weird things with human flesh.

·        A psychopath known Buffalo Bill is kidnapping and murdering young women across the Midwest. He fortunes them and then murders them. But atleast he’s nice enough to give them lotion to keep them moisturized

·

2. HOW WOULD SITUATE A PSYCHOLOGICAL THEORY IN THE FILM “THE SILENCE OF THE LAMBS”?

The Psychological theory in the Silence of the Lambs starts with a scene where it shows a woman, Clarice Starling, running through a type of training course. She's then called into Jack Crawford's office and told to go and talk to a psychopath who was once a famous psychiatrist, Dr. Hannibal Lecter. He has been know as "Hannibal the Cannibal" since he became a murder and ate parts of his victims. Crawford uses Starling to get information from Lecter about the ongoing case of "Buffalo Bill" in hope they can catch him before killing another one of his victims.

Projective Measures
Projective measures is where you would have someone tell you a story and you would watch them to see if they reveal anything. Lecter has a "quid pro qo" session with Starling and that's how he learns of her father and her living with her aunt on a ranch with sheep and with him being a psychiatrist, he notices subtle things that she does unconsciously.
Lecters Personality
Antisocial Personality Disorder
Hannibal Lecter seems to have antisocial personality disorder. Antisocial personality disorder is where you behave socially wrong, you are deceitful, and irresponsible. Now I don't believe Lecter was/is irresponsible, but I do believe the other things are true about him. He behaved wrong socially by eating parts of his victims, and he is deceitful by giving wrong names, using riddles as answers, and a few other

3.WHAT ARE THE GENDER SYMBOLS UTILIZED IN THE TEXT? GIVE ATLEAST 3. IDENTIFY THEIR RELEVANCE IN PROMOTING THE GENDER ROLE OF EACH THE CHARACTERS

·        Our heroic FBI trainee and stalker-stalker Clarice Ann Starling is direct, honest, determined—and smart enough to know when she should be scared spitless. She agrees to tangle with one of the most violent, brilliant, and dangerous criminals ever to practice psychiatry. And we all known that most of the member of the FBI are men WHO USES Gun.

·        Buffalo Bill He's solitary, not part of a tribe. He wears tidy, pressed clothes. And he probably brushes and flosses after every meal, even if that meal did involve a nurse's tongue served extra rare. He's brilliant and sophisticated and knows it. Roger Ebert's description nails it: "His speaking voice has the precision of a man so arrogant he can barely be bothered to address the sloppy intelligence of the ordinary person

·     lamb—beautiful, innocent and helpless—walking through a world full of evil, with men like Hannibal and Buffalo Bill waiting to slaughter her. Can she survive? Who will nurture and  protect her? Ironically, it is  slaughterer—Hannibal—who is also in part her protector here, although ultimately she must overcome her fears and protect herself. Her “fear” is the fear of failure, which leads to self doubt; she overcomes it by following her instincts and succeeding where her fellow agents fail.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Hannibal Lecter: is a cultured man who appreciates the art and beauty in life, even if he does eat people. He's being punished for his crimes by having these views taken away; by helping Clarice catch Buffalo Bill, he'll be rewarded.

Clarice Sterling: She's one of very few women in the FBI training academy. She was assigned to catch buffalo Bill and with the help of Lecter, Clarice tracks down Bill.

Buffalo Bill: Buffalo Bill hates himself and wants to change. He decides to change himself by killing women and making himself a woman suit.

2. Since one of the characters in the film specifically Buffalo Bill, is mentally- ill, I can say that this is connected to a psychological theory. He became like that because of his traumatic childhood and systematic abuse. He wants to be a woman but since he is mentally- ill, he kills women and eventually take- off their skin and put it to his body as a “woman suit”. He also doesn’t care about the people he kills for the sake of his happiness. Because of being traumatized during his childhood, he kept on doing that thing.

3. First gender symbol that is being utilized in the text is the gun because it is commonly used by men but in the story, the gun was used by Clarice because she is an FBI trainee and she also used that to kill Buffalo Bill. Since she is an FBI trainee it can be a sign that the gender here is demoted because she do things that should be done commonly by a man, Another one is lipstick because Buffalo Bill used it but it is only for the women. Because he wants to be a woman, he used or do some things that only woman does. He is an example of a person who failed the expectations of the society because in the first place, he is a man, but he wants to be a woman through skinning a woman to attain a feminine form.

1. Sterling: she has posttraumatic stress disorder because of the death of his father and the lambs who were slaughtered every night. She is guilty for not being able to help and that's why she became an FBI.
Hannibal: he has an antisocial personality disorder. He lacks empathy and remorse. He is cannibal and loves hearing traumatic stories of someone.
Buffalo Bill: he has both ASPD and PTSD. He feels no regret for murdering. He was abused when he is a child and he seeks revenge to 5 women.
2. I think, there are two villain in the film and both of them are scary. But Hannibal seems the creepier on the two. He can just control his inner desires to kill human. He will listen to your story and used it to defeat you. He don't need to kill you right away but by using your weakness is his way. At the end of the film, he had conversation with Sterling and he talks about the lamb and if I were Sterling, it really creeps me out.
3. Gun: it symbolizes masculity. But it takes over by Sterling. She was an FBI trainee and she used it to kill Buffalo causing him to death.
Death's-head hawkmoth: Buffalo Bill has an obsession with moths because they represent what he wants for himself. Moth begins as caterpillars, but then enter a cocoon and emerge as fully formed moth. He is a man who wants to become a woman, but denied a sex change operation. He murders women and collects their skin to create a woman suit-- a cocoon for himself to become a woman.
Lamb: it symbolizes inner fear. A woman's inner guilt and fear portrayed by Sterling.

2. How would you situate the psychological theory in the film "The Silence of the Lambs? (max of 100 words)
The two characters Lecter and Buffalo are very interesting to be analyze because they appeared the similarity in serial killer, and also the diffrences in style. Both of them, comparing in the development of their pscycological problems by their chilhood traumatic experiences. The writer uses the psychological approach by Sigmund Freud who divided three human psyche zones Id, Ego and Superego. Also the Self Defence Mechanism that proposed by Anna Freud. These characters, Buffalo Bill who used the traditional method in serial killer and Hannibal Lecture who is categorized as sophisticated serial killer. Both of them applies their self defence mechanism as the tools to achieve their goals.
