Can't let you down

In 1791, the vampire Lestat de Lioncourt selected Louis, a 25-year-old man.
Take his life first, and then give him dark eternal life.
Share immortality with Lestat.

If a Yankee is lost in Tokyo. Not to mention two species.
"That thing in Lestat was the same. We could not bear to live alone! We needed our little company! A wilderness of mortals surrounded us, groping, blind, preoccupied, and the brides and bridegrooms of death."


Poor Louis Also compassionate, claiming to accept soul torture every night (if he has any).
In the first four years of being a vampire, he only killed mice and never touched human blood.
Lestat was very tired and called him coward. Being a vampire is also abnormal.
"Know your nature, kill, be what you are."
But this emotion is as fresh as blood.
He fell in love with this tossing Louis, as he himself said "plainly and simply".

Lestat's days, no, night, are like this:
get dressed, drink good blood, go to the theater box to see Shakespeare, pick up girls, and play hunting games with strangers.
Spending money like earth, the long night is not wasted.
Morality, don't talk about it.

In 1795, in order to keep Louis, Lestat made him a vampire daughter Claudia to coax him.

In the adaptation of the movie, Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt are both too beautiful.
At first glance, I sympathized with Louis.
Revisited after more than ten years, but the result was completely opposite. I love Lestat.
He is a real vampire, just as Captain Barbosa is the purest pirate.
Because it is pure, it is respectable and cute.
Lestat will never complain about himself, anyway, it is a foregone conclusion, face his nature honestly.
Simply be a magnificent vampire and leave stunning wounds on the girls.

Lestat protects and pets them in his own way.
Let the tailor make the most fashionable clothes for Claudia.
Hire someone to paint Claudia's bedroom wall as a large forest with unicorns and golden birds.
When he was in a good mood, he would ask Louis to accompany him to the musician's house.
Drinking the blood of a drunkard, alcohol actually works on Lestat. How cute.
He wants nothing more than a few happiness: blood, coffins, a lot of money, mansions, costumes, parties, and Louis.

"Evil is a point of view."
He said so confidently, this guy never gave himself hard time.
Sometimes, he really looks like Lord Henry. There are two charming people, one ghost and the other, with the carnival spirit of "let's party".

poor person must have something mean.
Louis’s question, I asked myself. In a word--- He just needs to be comfortable with who he is.
His meaningless moral values ​​irritate me.
His betrayal made my teeth cold.
The burning candlestick was thrown at Lestat.
If that's the case, I might still think that Louis is a bit prosperous, and count him as ruthless.
But afterwards, why bother to remember the last sound of Lestat? ?
Coward! At
this point, he is not even as good as Claudia.

Claudia hit the nail on the head, "Your evil is that you cannot be evil, and I must suffer for it."

Fifty years later, New Orleans meets again.
Lestat, weak, withered.
Holding Louis with a dry hand, he said "She should have never been one of us, Louis." Then, Lestat beat his dry chest, "us", and repeated softly.
His obsession is "us", just like his original intention two hundred years ago. Betrayal, grudges and grievances come and go, only this "us", he wants.
While Louis looked at him, what he thought of in his mind was "the three of us together"...
every time I saw this page, Lestat was worthless.

-------------------------------------------------- ---------

Much like Xiaoqing in "Green Snake", "I am next to her and her next to me" is her best time. She said to Suzhen, "We are each other's new love. Until the end of the world." But if three people are necessary, then three people, let's party.

Can't put you down.
Obsessive, unrepentant evildoers are the loneliest.
The loneliness that ordinary people face is only a hundred years, Lestat is eternity with no end in sight.

Anne Rice uses it frequently in the book"

    Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise together are enough reasons to watch this movie. Tom Cruise’s Leicester are really superb.

    2012-07-15 I think it is a good metaphor, regardless of whether the play is written like that: the United States knows the secrets of European power and beauty, but Europe cannot gain the vitality and conscience of the United States. The quest of the vampires of the New World echoes the quest of American culture. Not only did Louis fail to find the answer from his predecessors, he lost his lover, and resolutely put aside his predecessors and left his creator (colonial culture). Have a good discussion of human nature by writing about immortality.
