Which words should be capitalized in this sentence?
michelle watched the movie silence of the lambs and was afraid to sleep.

Michelle is the first word in the sentence and it is a person’s name. Silence and Lambs are the important words in a movie title. Articles and other small words in titles are not capitalized. The word movie, as used in this sentence, is just an improper noun because it is not part of the name of something, so it is not capitalized.
