Really strange line

(alluding to the fact that he had obviously been in her house)
So then why wouldn't he just check one of her shoes to see what size she is? And yes, he's being creepy. He is a serial killer after all.
Let's be bad guys. -

Right, if I was buying a pair of shoes for my girlfriend (which I would never do. I have know idea what attracts women to their shoes) I would just look at one, or the box. My point wasn't, how did he know her shoe size? My point was, it was just a really odd thing to interject into the conversation.

To me, he was trying to
not
be creepy, and simply throwing the compliment out there and/or (in his own way) being somewhat playful.
Recall the line immediately before that: "No, it does not
excite
me. (see: gross) It
pleases
me. (see: compliment)"
That's how I thought it was meant.
And it's one of the (many) reasons I enjoy this film more than SOTL.
Wait a minute who am I here? -

I'm not trying to start anything, but clearly, if you liked this film, you have not read the book or you do not understand the beautiful original story. Not only did this movie strip Clarice of the strength she had in the book, it cut out or changed some of the most important charactization moments in the entire series for both Clarice and Hannibal and Mason and Barney. Furthermore, Julianne Moore was not consistent with the accent Clarice is supposed to have which is very important to her character and did not come close to solidifying Clarice's place in the Hannibal Universe.
