No not solely on that at all. Jame Gumb is always overlooked bc of Hannibal but he is right on par with him or maybe better.

The connection between Hannibal and Starling is unique. I love the quote "you know they're going to say we're in love" (might not have quoted that exactly but..). He had a genuine interest in her and wanted to help just by getting to hear her history. Someone that the entire world considers a monster wants to help poor little Clarice solve a crime. Better than any love story could have been. You see his true genius too.

Yeah, I think Buffalo Bill always gets the shaft when bringing up great villains. Why does Hannibal get all the glory? I'd much rather be captured, killed, and cannibalized by him than Buffalo Bill. At least Hannibal is quick and to the point, but Buffalo Bill makes you suffer for months on end in his creepy well of a basement, and then uses your body as a jock strap instead of sustenance. Hannibal is really just creepy to me, while Buffalo Bill is absolutely horrifying. Not to mention Hannibal is not the antagonist of SotL, and thus not the villain; Buffalo Bill deserves that glory.
