When Jack Crawford is explaining to his team about the Tooth Fairy's note to Lecktor, there is, very prominently in the foreground, what looks like a paperweight on his desk. What exactly is it, and why is it so important as to be in the foreground? [It's the plaster cast of the Tooth Fairy's teeth made from the bite impressions he left on past victims.]

When the film was first broadcast on TV, why was the title changed to "Red Dragon: The Pursuit of Hannibal Lecter"? [It was done to capitalize on the success of "The Silence of the Lambs," which made Hannibal Lecter a household name.]
When talking to Freddy Lounds, why does Francis Dolarhyde wear the stocking over his face? [He wears the stocking over his face for two reasons: (a) to protect his identity (to make Lounds think he'll survive) and (b) remember that Francis believes he is an "ugly monster" so he is also wearing the stocking to defer judgement away from him.]
