Hannibal “The Cannibal” Lecter, portrayed by Anthony Hopkins in The Silence Of The Lambs, has chewed up the competition to top a US list of film villains.

And Atticus Finch from To Kill A Mockingbird has defeated an army of swashbuckling idols for the top spot on the American Film Institute’s list of top screen heroes.
