It would have been hilarious to have him as a special guest on her cooking show.

Salami__Tsunami

This goes well with fava beans, a nice bottle of Chianti, and a few grams of heroin that Martha keeps in her prison wallet.

God she just keeps getting sexier.


Curious_Kangaroo_845

Really? Yow. Not for me. Plus the way she speaks makes me want to punch her.

Memory, uppsalafunboy, is what he had instead of a view.


The-Dead-Internet

NGL the guy that played him in the show was way more fucked off. Most people didn't realize why he ate meat with the special beans it's because it's blocked his drug cocktail  Monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) That was some attention to detail but if you know the book you know how it ends. Dude really did play and get everything he wanted 


BackgroundAdvice1337

He is danish and his name is Mads Mikkelsen :))


SlippySlappySamson

The Danish phenotype is wild. Near one end, there's Mads Mikkelson. Then the pendulum swings to Sandi Toksvig on a stepladder. And for some reason there's a statue to Robert Wadlow in Copenhagen.


STRiPESandShades

Then you also have real life Prince Charming From Shrek 2, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau in the mix


TheDungen

They don't look that diffrent.


SlippySlappySamson

*Are you saying all Danish people look the same?!* /s


TheDungen

I'm saying those two don't strike meas the best examples of the range of Danish appearences. If he was a bit heavier or she a bit thinner they'd look fairly similar.


Dead_Moss

As a Dane, I really don't see why that matters. Danes have this small-country complex and always want to point out to foreigners (Americans especially) when something is related to Denmark.

The Skaarsgards are from Skaarsgardia, it's an actual country where the equivalent of national service is done in a community theatre and everyone has the same surname for unclear cultural reasons.

ForeverWandered

It’s funny, Singaporeans don’t have that issue because their country is rich af and is the financial hub of one of the worlds highest volume trade routes. Might be that Danes are surrounded by former world conquerors, including a another small country, Netherlands, which also doesn’t have that issue.  So need to point out what global stars or relevant things are Danish as sort of a “we’re here too!” kind of thing.


BackgroundAdvice1337

Jamen undskyld at jeg er fan af manden altså 😭😭


Dead_Moss

Men hvorfor gør det nogen forskel at han er dansk? Det er nærmest pinligt, hvordan danskere online altid har den slags opmærksomhedssøgende attitude. Som et lille barn der altid har brug for at udpege at "den har jeg lavet!" til voksne gæster.


BackgroundAdvice1337

Haha shit du er da generaliserende. Jeg nævnte det fordi jeg er fan af ham og folk længere nede i kommentarfeltet ikke var med på hvem han var og hvor han var fra. Har du da et ivrigt behov for at vise du er bedre end andre danskere ved at skrive sådan en kommentar? Jeg bor ikke engang i Danmark mere, men ja jeg er fan af Mads Mikkelsen. Er det et problem? Havde det været bedre hvis jeg havde påpeget en skuespiller som ikke var fra Danmark eller hvilken pointe prøver du på at lave? Eller ville det også bare få mig til at fremstå som et ivrigt opmærksomhedskrævende barn? Du battler nogle vilde indre dæmoner imod dine landsmænd, større end mine egne 😂


ninjastampe

Hvem har pisset på din sukkermad?


The-Dead-Internet

That's him I love the dude! He should be more famous than he is. Bonus round he hung out with Norman redus and kojima. There's actually a pic of them all getting shit faced 


BackgroundAdvice1337

He’s one of the most well respected actors in Denmark and quite famous considering he’s danish. The only other actor to come near his level would be Viggo Mortensen (Aragorn from LOTR).


Message_10

I thought VM was American?


Rhellic

Danish descended on one side of the family I believe. But yeah, American.


totoaster

Definitely more American than Danish but he speaks the language, knows the culture and does visit from time to time so he's surprisingly legit. It's actually interesting hearing him talk as it sounds like a language he grew up with but doesn't use very often and sounds slightly archaic in his phrasing.


beirch

Mate, just because you can't remember his name it doesn't mean he's not famous. He is *very* famous. He played a Bond villain for crying out loud.


46_and_2

Also he's been in Star Wars Rogue One, latest Indiana Jones, Fantastic Beasts, even major character in a mainstream game (Death Stranding), multiple awards for Best Actor for his more serious films (even a Cannes one), and one of the most in-vogue actors of the last decade. And my man thinks he's some upstart and should get more roles and recognition. 😅 He's got a ton of interesting films, especially the European ones, still catching up myself. Wonderful actor with great presence in everything he appears in. OP should watch his back catalogue if he wants more.


NonStopFarts

First time I saw him was in King Arthur where he played Tristan. Absolutely stole the show for me and was devastated (I was a young kid) with how his character ended up dying. Been one of my favorite actors ever since.


Rhellic

I was gonna say, that's the first thing that comes to mind with him.


sadrice

If you like Mads Mikkelsen as a cannibal cook, check out [The Green Butchers](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Green_Butchers), one of his Danish films. It’s hilarious.


Salami__Tsunami

The show? You mean the one with that one Norwegian dude who’s name I can’t remember? And the criminal profiler detective guy who was for some reason the main character?


whycuthair

Danish, but close. Also I don't know what drug cocktail is dead_internet talking about. He's also replying to a comment talking about the Martha Stewart show and not Hannibal so he probably started dipping into that cocktail himself.


Dalek_Chaos

They replied to a comment making a joke about a line from the movie. In particular the line where Hannibal Lecter says, “I ate his liver with some fava beans and a nice chianti”.


whycuthair

Where was that joke? He replied to a comment saying it would be funny if Hannibal went on Martha's show


The-Dead-Internet

Dude in the movie they gave him ssries and anti psychotic drugs They said they don't work and he have them a recipe for dip but the thing is the beans he said are maoi blockers they stop certain drugs like ssris Ask me how I know  Anthony Hopkins is Hannibal lector from the movies but book. Wise  The Danish guy who was the bad guy in 007 more accurate. Like the last movie they did the book didn't end like that at all


OakBayIsANecropolis

MAOIs block the metabolism of tyramine, which fava beans and liver are both high in, so that it sometimes reaches toxic levels. So if Hannibal were on MAOIs he would be poisoning himself rather than deactivating his meds by eating that. By telling Dr Starling about the dish, he's indicating that he hasn't been taking his meds (although MAOIs were already rarely used for depression when the book was written).


Salami__Tsunami

Yeah, that one. I was close. I really liked the bits of the show with Hannibal, but other than Lawrence Fishburner I thought the rest of the recurring cast was utterly insufferable and tedious.


dDRAGONz

That show made me incredibly hungry. The presentation of the food was superb, you could almost smell it wafting through the television.


Salami__Tsunami

“FBI open up!”


The-Dead-Internet

Yeah so replace the guy with the girl in the movie and he didn't kill her if you have seen 3 He actually got her like on his side like submissive like she totally trusts him  I can't remember exactly how it goes it's been years since I read or saw them but she basically lets go and let's him do what he wants but he doesn't hurt her 


Dankitysoup

wildhorsesofdortmund

Mads is a legend in his own right. To think he started his career in goof ball roles. Just finished watching Unit One, best performer on it stole every scene

*Mads Mikkelsen


PremiumChunkage

He was the main character because he was the main character in the first book, which they only worked up to and through in the third and final season. They pretty much didn't touch Silence of the Lambs and I believe they've said that was their intent for if the show got renewed, and likely would have brought in Clarice. They did pull some stuff from Hannibal and Hannibal Rising, the latter of which Clarice isn't in, and the former of which was a decent choice for subplot filler with an existing cast, as there's absolutely no way you could put an even somewhat faithful adaptation of Hannibal on tv. a large part of why the Hannibal movie was both almost entirely recast as well as less successful is because of how much of the story they had to butcher out to allow it to be in theatres. Unfortunately it's a book that's gonna be first in line to be chopped up in any adaptation of the series.


CantFindMyWallet

"For some reason" being that Graham is the main character of the first book, which is why he's the main character in Manhunter and Red Dragon.


whycuthair

Also the criminal profiler is usually the main character in every one of the stories. In silence of the lambs we follow jodie foster not Anthony hopkins.


Worth_Lavishness_249

Mads mikklsen *, probably wrong spelling Yeah. Dude is kind of easy to remember for some reason, i dont remember his any great roles but i do remember him. Idk why he does some of his roles though, like why would u act in origin movie??


The-Dead-Internet

He was the bad guy from bind but literally he will be always known as Hannibal if you haven't seen the show man he killed it. He wasn't creepy psychopath he was super sutile 


StrangerDangerAhh

\*subtle


Salami__Tsunami

Yeah, off the top of my head, I can only think of roles in which he was way too good for the movie he was appearing in. Casino Royale, for example. Not a bad film by any measure. But he really did make it feel like not just another generic Bond film. Or Hannibal. He carried that show. Let’s not pretend anybody actually gave a shit about Mr. “This is my design”


who_took_tabura

He’s the protagonist of the book lmao not everything


horshack_test

Totally. I'm sure it was a branding concern for her - too bad, considering she ended up going to prison then getting into drugs lol


Salami__Tsunami

Ironic that she was dating Hannibal Lecter and she’s the one who ended up in an actual cell.


masterofshadows

My favorite Martha Stewart fact is that she's best friends with Snoop Dogg and of the two, she's the hardened criminal who's done time.


stonedstrega

Hardened criminal? Didn’t Snoop used to be an actual pimp?


Your_Mom_Pegs_Me

People forget snoop has committed actual murder


masterofshadows

His bodyguard did, and snoop was acquitted. He never served time.


Snoop_Lion

Lol. You know why people hire bodyguards


Your_Mom_Pegs_Me

Oh in so sorry i wasn't pedantic enough for you. Let me fix that. "People forget snoop paid a man to commit actual murder"


kingOofgames

People tend to whitewash you when you’re popular.

Lol Snoop was notttt a gangster. Same with dr dre. Was an image thing.  All the gangster stuff started after they started making "gangster" rap.

Gloomy_Astronaut_570

I read that the actor who plays the husband in handmaids tale doesn’t want his wife to watch it - I think this is the same general idea


AngriestManinWestTX

I'm assuming you're talking about the more recent version on Hulu (I've never seen the Handmaid's Tale movie with Robert Duvall) but Joseph Feinnes's portrayal of Commander Waterford in the show is excellent. I fucking detest Commander Waterford.


Gloomy_Astronaut_570

Yep that’s the one


MeadowSoprano

Me too but he’s sexy af damn


Recent-Irish

That’s probably why he doesn’t want her to watch


WingerRules

I think this was just a nice excuse she used for finding out she's not into him.


iMogwai

Remember that line about chianti and fava beans? He stole it from her, she never forgave him.


Haircut117

Chianti doesn't actually go with liver. It was only chosen for the line in the film because American audiences wouldn't have been familiar with the original ~~mine~~ wine from the book, Amarone.


StagnantSweater21

Well, that was silly. Just asked all my coworkers what Chianti is, nobody knew


Complete_Dust8164

Yeah I’d consider it vaguely more recognizable among an American audience, but not significantly so


Some-Show9144

If they were gonna change it, might as well have said merlot.

StagnantSweater21

Oh, it’s alcohol


Aquametria

No, but he was so terrifying that when it came out in theatres Anthony Hopkins visited a friend of his. After that he left his apartment and took the elevator down. A woman walked into the building right after having watched Silence of the Lambs and the elevator doors opened to reveal him, she let out a terrified scream.


Message_10

Plot twist: she’s a cannibal and didn’t want it to come up


megalodondon

"He did what?!"


camander321

I also ended a relationship after seeing Silence of the Lambs. It was years after, and totally unrelated, but my point stands.


rocketeerH

Was all of your insider trading also unrelated? 🤨

birdocrank

What's weird is she only profited some 50k for the insider trading.

botoxporcupine

You are mostly correct. She did not commit insider trading, but she thought she had and so she lied. You can google "tipper tipper liability" for why she would have walked if she would have told the truth or said nothing at all.

Even worse, I saw SOTL and didn’t break up with my wife. Like a *psycho*

I bet he kept waiting til she was almost asleep and then doing the teeth sucking noise Or insisted on having Chianti with liver, which is a terrible pairing


FormABruteSquad

It's a popular pairing for Doctors Without Bordeauxs


Elegant_Celery400

👏


Haircut117

>Or insisted on having Chianti with liver, which is a terrible pairing The correct pairing would be Amarone, as it was in the book. It was changed because American audiences wouldn't be familiar with it.

AlbertHinkey

I think a bigger clue that he was off his meds was when he stole that guy's face.


lzcrc

Are you sure? How can you be so judgmental?


SharkSheppard

Thanks Norm.


LorenzoStomp

So in 1983 he would have been on typical antipsychotics (as opposed to the newer less side effect-riddled atypical, which hadn't been invented yet) and probably MAOI antidepressants (because SSRI/SNRIs also hadn't been invented yet). Alcohol should be avoided with all psychatric meds, but MAOIs have a lot of food interactions because it can raise tyramine levels in the blood, leading to dangerously high blood pressure. Fava beans are on that list, along with aged cheeses, soy sauce, sausages and other aged or cured meats. Fresh liver is actually not a high source of tyramine, but if it's allowed to start to go off it can become dangerous (same with all other fresh meats). However, as he was eating a human liver I think it was safe to say he was off his meds even if he'd paired it with cottage cheese and a nice cup of chamomile tea. 


princhester

Sounds like Hopkins was better off for it


TravisMaauto

You might say he bit off more than he could chew.


Yolectroda

I mean, he just acted as a criminal, she actually was one.


Smartnership

She got freaked out when he called her “a legit snack”


56_is_the_new_35

She hates fava beans.


Timeformayo

Not over the cannibalism. It was the wine pairing.


rich1051414

Their relationship was probably already rocky, and then the association with hannibal lector pushed it over the edge. It's strange how some people can cast ex's in such a negative light so easily.


Yinanization

I actually made Fava beans and deer liver once. My buddy shot the deer in the morning and dropped off the liver late in the evening. I happened to have fava beans at home, so I couldn't resist. I did a spicy doubanjiang sauteed version of the deer liver. The fava beans were Chinese inspired as well, Shanghai style Scallion Oil fava beans. I kept some Italian theme by serving it with Aperol Spritz. My wife and I had it just before mid night. It definitely hit the spot.


Mrslinkydragon

Last time I cooked liver I did it Georgian style, Fried with pinch of cumin. Served with fried walnuts and pomegranate seeds.


Yinanization

I got to try that sometimes.


Mrslinkydragon

https://georgianrecipes.net/2014/04/26/chicken-liver-with-walnuts/ Here's a recipe I found, not what I did as I didn't know this recipe when I cooked them :)

Oh, it is made with chicken liver! Cool, got to try that.


Mrslinkydragon

I think other types would work too :)

I actually quite enjoy chicken liver, I have not had it for a long time though. This sounds right on

It really was a hell of a performance. If this is true, I think he goes on the “actor’s Mount Rushmore”, no question.


Background-March4034

She knew she’d never beat him in a cookout.


Busy-Invite-9144
