What's your favourite Jonathan Demme movie?

Jonathan Demme has died, but not before he left his mark with some truly landmark films.
Does The Silence of the Lambs run away with the title "best Jonathan Demme movie"?
Or perhaps Philadelphia?

I do think The Silence of the Lambs is the one for which he will (rightfully) be remembered, a masterfully directed film that sits well outside of what one might have seen as his comfort zone. One of the best American movies of the 90s.
But I am also a fan of his quirky 1980s run - Melvin and Howard, Something Wild and Married to the Mob,

I'm not saying it's his best, but I just love The Silence of the Lambs. That would be my favorite.
