forever lonely

At first glance, I didn't feel much, until Tom's appearance. The pale neurotic morbid appearance and the French aristocratic accent that was deliberately imitated by pinching the throat was simply divine.

Pete is not suitable for such a role, and has always believed so, both in appearance and temperament. Especially the big cheek. Maybe he's melancholy enough, but it's just a comparison to himself. I have seen a video of a female police officer on the International TV station. The AV movie male pig who was killed in revenge for the unjust boss mother and son contracted AIDS was probably chosen based on Pete's model, with a pale face and a mouth full of blood. , Just looking at it, I thought of the pale head in the trash can, shockingly similar to the horror.

Dunst's leprechaun is ingenious, with such a vicious look and ruthless means, he completely compares himself to his grown-up self. 30 years of growth, more than 30 dolls of different shapes, the rotting corpse of the once envied woman hidden under the doll, longing for love, and even more eager to be loved... This little person is just one and the same. The slender needle pierces your heart alive, making you feel distressed involuntarily.

Regarding Lestat, I suddenly felt that he was very much like the real person in Takahashi's "The Legend of the Mermaid", the child who lived alone for 800 years. Because there is no way to live alone, so to make a companion like him (maybe from some perspectives, Claudia and this kid's characters are more similar). Even such a real person has gone through 800 years of vicissitudes, and the long years have built up his invincible cold heart. And this is the biggest difference between Lestat and real people. After knowing that he had created the betrayal of the person who accompanied him, the real person's choice was to find another person to replace him, but Lestat gave up and wanted to keep Louis by his side. From the point of view of today's fangirls, how ambiguous and ambiguous this pair is. In fact, in my opinion, it's nothing but his creation. He gave him life, but only taught him to be a Vampire. In the way of foraging, he eagerly wants to turn this self-created life into a second self, which is just a disguised fear of loneliness, that's all. For Louis and Claudia, he was like a domineering parent, which made the two little devils resist. How similar Lestat is to Louis, and the real person is to the "mother" he created in "The Mermaid Wound".

Personally, I don't like Louis very much. After the death of his lover, he is sluggish. He has the heart to die but has no courage to die. When a vampire who can satisfy his wishes appears, it has become his natural choice to survive. He just found that this dark new world was far less beautiful than he had imagined at first. He was confused about what kind of creature he was, and he didn't dare to face the filthy self after mutation, as well as his reliance on Lestat. He had no choice but to choose. Accept it silently. Yes, I always thought that he didn't drink human blood because Armand claimed that he still had the power of the human heart, and he didn't do it because of his cowardice - until Claudia came along. In Lestat's eyes, she was still the daughter of a good boy, but at the end she showed sharp fangs, which was probably the feeling of being bitten by a snake she raised. The act of letting Lestat suck the blood of the dead and cut his throat with a knife was all done by Claudia alone, and Louis, who just completed the two tasks of watching and discarding the corpse. Years later, after Claudia had died and he had declined Armand's invitation, Louis returned alone to the city where he met Lestat, only to find him still there. For such a holding hand, he still chose to let go and leave. From this perspective, Louis is like Yuta, who has been on a never-ending journey, alone, for a lifetime.

And the little guy Claudia, no matter how you look at it, looks like Natsume in Sheriki's words, with a flamboyant personality and a short life, although it is just a passing visitor in Yongtai's 500-year long life, it is also a very important stroke in his life.

The reason why I don't say "most" is also because of Lestat.

At the end of a mermaid's words, Yongtai asked Zhenyu, what would happen to you if I was gone, the girl replied, she will keep looking, keep looking... Beside Yongtai, she kept muttering in her heart, "She just doesn't. Saying words like 'loneliness' and 'loneliness'..."

But Lestat finally gave up his pursuit of Louis, he found the little reporter who wanted to be his kind, and the vampire career that didn't want to be lonely will continue. .

At the end of the film, Lestat's close-up fingers and thumbs when driving after restoring his original shape are really amazing. It can't be exaggerated to describe how tender and jade-like it is~~
