CRASH COURSE FOR ANTHONY HOPKINS

Real-life horror for Anthony Hopkins on the set of “Red Dragon” — the “Silence of the Lambs” prequel — in a scene where Hannibal Lector lunges to disarm an FBI agent, played by Ed Norton! Hopkins charged, but overshot Norton and slammed into a huge bookcase, which swayed and tilted — raining books on the startled star! Norton and crewmembers leaped to catch the heavy bookcase before it crashed down on Hopkins — who burst out laughing under the pile of books, cracking, “This is one hell of a way to get an education!”
