I know that now, but at the time I didn't. I remember looking at my watch at one point, knowing there was only about 20 minutes left in the movie, and thinking "fuck, they have a lot of ground to cover still."

The movie starts out by saying it is part one. I think a lot of people just missed that.

That is true though I must say I was surprised that it basically covered just Paul's time with the atredis. Adaptations tend to sprint through that bit.
Not that I'm complaining.

'Hannibal' creator Bryan Fuller accused of sexual harassment and assault

Bryan Fuller, a producer and writer behind shows such as "Hannibal" and "American Gods," has been accused in a lawsuit of sexually harassing and assaulting a colleague while working as a director on last year's docuseries "Queer for Fear."

Sam Wineman, a producer on the series, sued Fuller in Los Angeles Superior Court on Wednesday for sexual harassment, retaliation, emotional distress and other alleged workplace violations between 2020 and 2022. Wineman is also seeking damages from AMC Networks, Shudder, Steakhaus Productions and other potentially liable parties, claiming they ignored his concerns and enabled Fuller's behavior.

Wineman alleges that Fuller sexually assaulted him "several times," including once pressing his penis against Wineman's buttocks. The complaint also claims Fuller spoke of his genitalia and masturbation habits so often that it "became a running theme among employees."
