'DRAGON' RIGHTS
Anthony Hopkins and Julianne Moore made another debut on this week's chart, but unlike Hannibal, their performances now are miles apart. In at No. 1, Red Dragon -- Hopkins' third incarnation as madman Hannibal Lecter -- was a hit with video buffs, while critically acclaimed Far From Heaven -- with an Oscar-nominated Moore -- made it into the top 10, and for an art-house film that's a thriller.
