Atheists, if all Southern Americans are backwards?

I haven't seen it since it first came out, but...

As I recall, part of the dynamic of that movie was that Clarice was supposed to be a rural American, not at all sophisticated. She's resourceful and clever, not stupid, but culturally not sophisticated. While Hannibal has high-class cultural tastes. 

In fact the only character in popular culture who would read Dante or T.S. Eliot is a serial killer cannibal.
