The feeling of an ordinary moviegoer

About this very famous movie, let's talk about the characters first: 1. Louie: He lost his life and desire for life because his wife and children died in childbirth, and he became a walking dead figure for a period of time. Later, he was chosen by the vampire Le Shida to become a middle-field demon who never grows old and lives by sucking blood. At the beginning of becoming a vampire, he was restless in his heart, and felt guilty and rejected for sucking human blood. It can be said that there is still a trace of humanity in him. This may be one of the reasons why Lusta was attracted to Louie, and why other vampires wanted Louie. When a person, no, a vampire, has lived in the dark for a long, long time, this remnant of humanity really is a light they haven't seen in a long time. Louis wants to escape the control of Le Shida, it may be because Lu Shida treats the victims cruelly, or Louis finally found his spiritual sustenance (the little girl Claudia), he and Claudia designed the murder together. Died Le Shida, fled to another world to seek a more perfect teacher. Later, when Claudia was executed by the perverted vampire troupe, Louis' inner anger erupted and all the vampires in the troupe were burned to death. From then on, Louis became a person again, until he returned to New Orleans later. When he saw the weak Lestad again, he may have a little warmth in his heart again, but the two were not partners all the way, and Louis still separated. Lexida left. In my opinion, Louis is a half-human, half-vampire existence. His human side prompted him to smoke rats, pigeons and other animals, and his evil side made him kill and become a real demon. In the end, Louis tells his story to passersby. In his heart, he hopes that people will not go to the end of the world because of temporary sadness, not greedy for empty eternal life, but cherish the limited and wonderful life.

2. Lu Shida: The reason why Lu Shida became a vampire is not mentioned in the movie, but it only portrays a cynical and sophisticated vampire noble image. He is graceful in temperament, gentle in killing, and self-proclaimed as Louis' vampire mentor. Maybe at first, he just wanted to see if Louis, who did not indulge his desires and still retained his humanity, would become a vampire and fall into the same fall as himself. Later, he failed, and Louie always let him down. For Louis, the little girl Claudia was transformed, which can be said to wipe her ass for Louis (Louis couldn't hold back from smoking the little girl for a while, and later woke up with regret and sadness). He taught Claudia to kill and hunt, and cultivated her into a genius killer vampire, but in his eyes Claudia was just a puppet, and his real partner or his salvation was always Louis. But deep in his heart, he still regarded Claudia as his family, and when Claudia confessed that he made him drink dead blood, he still believed her. In the end, Claudia stabbed him to dry blood, and although he was relieved by the dirty animals of the swamp, he was finally burned by the fire of his beloved Louis. I don't know how Lesta escaped from the fire when Louis and Claudia left, and how he survived alone until Louis came back again. To tell the truth, I am full of sympathy for Le Shida, Louis became a vampire is a voluntary depravity, can not blame others. Le Shida taught Louis how to survive and how to be a vampire, which is a lot of sincerity. What he did wrong might be to turn the little girl into a vampire. According to his harsh eyes, Claudia was not fit to be a vampire in any way, but for Louis, he did it anyway. In the end, blood-drying, burning, betrayal, abandonment, loneliness. It can be said that Le Shida is a vampire with many crimes and scars.

3. Claudia: From the very first time she appeared, I didn't like this character very much. Childishness, lust, jealousy, murderousness, and ungratefulness are all shown in the back. It can be said that her becoming a vampire is the responsibility of Louis and Lesta. But without them, she probably would have died of the Black Death long ago. In the first few years of becoming a vampire, she was a little girl mentally, and her lust for killing and uncontrollable desire was understandable. But when she lived a long, long time, her heart was still the same childishness. Jealous of the relationship between Louis and Le Shida, disgusting that Le Shida always regards herself as a little girl and a doll, but she has no self-knowledge, is she really mature? What's more, Le Shida has outlived her for so long that it is strange not to treat her as a child. She was attached to Louis, who showed a little warmth, but mocked that Louis wouldn't have been sucking mouse blood for a living. In the end, she actually harmed her benefactor. No matter what she said, Le Shida gave her life again. Although this kind of life will get tired after living for a long time, the first years of rebirth are undeniable. When he was executed by the vampire troupe, he also transformed a woman into his mother. He was simply selfish and deserved to be executed by the sun. Don't say she's just a child, she's a long-lived vampire, and not all children are as annoying as she is.

4. Passers-by: This guy didn't believe that Louis was a vampire at first, until Louis showed his fangs and showed his ability. Normal people usually run away when they see a real vampire, but this weirdo just wants to hear Louis' story. After listening to Louis' story, the restlessness and desire in his heart became more and more full, and he even wanted to become an immortal vampire. It can be said that he was blinded by desire, and he was willing to be transformed for eternal life. Unlike Louis, who was trying to escape the deep sadness, the little girl Claudia had no choice. He went against Louis's original intention, and Louis left in disappointment. In the end, he galloped away on a bicycle and played Louis's self-reported tape on the car. At this time, Le Shida found him. In the end, he should have been turned into a vampire by Lu Shida, and became a replacement for Louis. exist. I don't know if it's good or bad, anyway, this person won't have a good end, and the eternal curse of emptiness will turn him into a walking dead in the end.

What I don't understand:

1. After Louis was sealed by the vampires of the troupe, although he was rescued by Amon, are they not afraid of Louis' revenge for killing Louis' daughter? Why not get ready? All lying in coffins waiting to die is outrageous. In the end, the head of the troupe should be a vampire older than Louis, and he has been sucking human blood and teleporting. How can he be stabbed by Louis from behind? It's very confusing.

2. I don't know why all the vampires in the troupe were burned to death, but Leshida was not burned to death. Could it be that Leshida is the ancestor of vampires?

Interview with the Vampire: The Vampire Chronicles quotes

  • Louis: Thirty years had passed, yet her body remained that of an eternal child. Her eyes alone told the story of her age, staring out from under her doll-like curls, with a questioning that will one day need an answer.

  • Louis: Though the fire seemed to spread through the quarter, I stood on that deck, fearful he would come out again from the very river, like some monster, to destroy us both. And all the while, I thought, 'Lestat, you deserve your vengeance. You gave me the dark gift, and I delivered you into the hands of death for the second time.'
