"Interview with the Vampire" is the most impressive movie I've seen. One of the reasons is naturally that the movie has taken over two of Hollywood's two god-level handsome guys (now also handsome uncles) Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt; the main reason is that the interpretation of vampires in this movie is the most in line with "human nature" and the most in my opinion. Profound.
Louis, played by Pitt, was assimilated by the vampire Lestat, played by Cruis, when he was dying. The feeling of being lit by the sun for the last time before his death was what he missed the most after being reborn as a vampire. After a brief curiosity after the transformation, he quickly fell into Human suffering. Because he had to take the lives of others in order to satisfy his own hunger, and he was a rare predator with human nature among vampires, he had to endure double torture. However, once the long-held belief is loosened, it will fall short. Claudia's blood has been exchanged for lifelong pain and loneliness. In order to relieve Louis' loneliness, Lestat gave him Claudia, and also gave him the helplessness of being imprisoned and the sense of guilt that he was unable to dispel. . This is human greed and desire.
The same Claudia was still a little girl when she was transformed, and she knew nothing about sucking human blood with the leatat without any scruples, but over time, when a normal girl has developed into a slim and graceful figure When she was a woman, she was still only the height of a child, the appearance of a child, and even the hairstyle she left at the moment of her death could not be changed. Being immortal, but never being a real woman, made Claudia hate Lestat who transformed her, and finally, with the help of Louis, Lestat was reduced to ashes. Here is human anger and resentment.
Lestat is probably the most vampire-like vampire in the movie. He is beautiful and mysterious, but he is
cruel . He accepts everything he has as a vampire, but he constantly imposes fear and despair on others. In the end, he died in the hands of the two vampires he personally transformed. It is not so much a vampire, it is better to say that he died in the hands of his prey-human.
Vampires are killed by human nature while taking human life. This is probably what the film is trying to convey to us.
But reincarnation never ends. At the end of the film, the only remaining vampire, Louis, invited the reporter to be a guest at his home and told about his century-old experience as a vampire, but he did not expect to arouse the reporter's desire and curiosity. The vampire story will continue.
