Time will dilute or even dissolve some emotions, but I believe that time will also make other emotions deeper and more inseparable.
In the two hundred years of Louis's life, he only established a connection with Liszt and Claudia, and this connection was so deep that Louis could not let go of it in the two hundred years after Claudia's death. So, you say he is emotional? But when he reunited with Liszt at the New Orleans cemetery, he turned around and left.
Vampires have a straightforward love affair. The kind of precise intuition that decides to be partners with each other just by looking at each other. Once the person in your heart is gone, even if you have eternal life, why not have endless time to waste? Vampires have an enviable beauty that never fades, and they have abundant life that is proficient enough to be proficient in all the arts in the world.
If you understand that everyone has the once sea in their hearts, then Louis's choice to live alone after Claudia's death is not a problem. It is not that he is powerless to face another loss. After all, he has enough time to numb the pain. Rather than being afraid of losing his lover, he is more afraid of losing himself.
Vampires are like modern people, with endless information and endless choices, but they are more and more unavoidable to lose themselves. Louie has feelings, he hasn't lost his humanity, he even knows how to love and not seek companions just to preserve his strength like other vampires. The vampires, who are as light as swallows, are afraid of Louis, who has a soul. He reflects the weaknesses they dare not face, so that the vampires try their best to get rid of Louis and Claudia, who know love and dependence.
Louis has a unique charisma, that hesitant hesitation to move forward, that seemingly timid pity that would rather eat a mouse than hurt a human being. His undeniable charisma is probably why Liszt, Amanda and Claudia love him too much to leave him.
The beauty of the film lies in its escapism from revealing to the audience that even Louis, who was once full of human charm, eventually succumbed to the survival pressure of his long life. The picture is always of Louis looking at the corpse with a hint of hesitation, fear and disgust, always of him wearing a gorgeous embroidered gold costume and holding Claudia's hand in various ball theatres, always being his doting. Watching Claudia tell her that it was a long time ago to eat mice, but never spoiling how Louis lived after Claudia died. Smart Louis, he knows how to play tricks and flirtatious in front of reporters, and make him yearn for the life of a vampire. He hid his lonely life after Claudia's death, and he hid his actions that he wanted to hurt others in order to survive. Everyone has their own swan song in their lives, and the one that belongs to Louis is Claudia After Ya died, he left Armand with a firm and resolute back.
So what are we after? What do we need? No one can answer you. After all, your own life has to go by yourself. What do you want, in people's eyes, a vampire who is full of energy, with red lips and white teeth, and who dumps all beings, or is it a living dead who sleeps in a coffin at night, does not see the light of day, and eats mice and snakes?
The wind blew the veil over the weak and shriveled Liszt. The heavy and tense piano chords were mixed in the rolling white drapery, his blonde hair, his white face and red lips, his cynical expression, his aristocratic temperament, and his long white fingers when he played the sea. Except for him, no one can be called the name composed of the three words [Liszt].
He was beautiful when he didn't show his fangs.
