This is truly one of the hardest choices I've made in my 1,000 matchups on Flickchart. Both films I would easily put on my Top 25 favorite films of all-time list. But which do I like more? Fargo is simply brilliant from the Coens, but The Silence of the Lambs seems to stand out more as a cinematic masterpiece.

This is so unfair

Wow, this is tough. With a gun to my head, I'd pick Lambs. Both are very well-made, but Lambs is a classic script in terms of structure, from a fine book.

Im going with Silence of the Lambs

GAH. both are nearly perfect, but in different ways. I guess i'll go with Silence because i know deep down in my heart that it's a better film, and i've watched it more times than fargo (although both VHS copies died pretty worn out).

Both great films, but at the end of the day I think I liked Fargo better.

I like Silence of the Lambs more!

Hannibal Lecter, Buffalo Bill, nuff said.
Silence is good entertainment, but highly overrated. Fargo is flawless.

Am I going to go with Fargo? Oh, ya, you betcha.
Not difficult at all for me. Give me them Lambs.
Silence...by a hair...

Two great 90s thrillers in a close match up. I go with Silence of the Lambs.

Tough choice. Two damn near perfect films with very different tones and themes. I gotta go with Fargo on this one.

Fargo is honestly better. It just had better writing
