Lester could have walked a life that lasted for hundreds of years alone, like Amon, indulging in original sin and content with himself. It's a pity that when he met Louis, who had no love for life, loneliness became the beginning of his tragedy.
For Lester, Claudia and Amon, the sin of being a vampire is not as serious as Louis. They miss the life in the sun and indulge in the pleasures of the night. Good and evil are not absolute.
But Louis is different. He is a traitor within the system. Whether it is his kindness as a slave owner or his kindness when he becomes a vampire, he is like a thorn in the hearts of his peers. This thorn touched Leicester's conscience, Croatia's admiration, and Amon's awakening.
So the three have different choices in the movie, Lester's destruction and transformation, Claudia's possession and attachment, and Amon's inspiration and company. But these three are not what Louis expected, because Louis himself is an indecisive person.
In the face of Lester's oppression, he was twisted and submissive, Claudia's domineering, he became an accomplice, and Amon's invitation, he hesitated again. All the tragedies have nothing to do with him, but because of him, he is like a beautiful beauty who was never born, showing a hint of tenderness gently, so that the heroes fight to the end, and no one is left in the end.
Every traveler projects on Louis, looking for his lost self, but they all forget that Louis is the one who lost his wife and child, waiting for redemption. What he wanted was an elder in spirit and a dependant in appearance, so that he could recall the envied, happy, and plain life.
So among the three, I still feel the most distressed about Lester. But if Leicester has half of Croatia's obsession and weakness, Amon's reason and patience, Louis will not easily turn his back on him.
People who are easy to hesitate are also easy to grow in love. To deal with such a person, as long as you stay by his side long enough, you can get the fruits of victory. And Lester had taken the lead, he gave Louis a second life, and accompanied and guided Louis to grow up.
It's a pity that Lester can't see such a future. The difference between him and Louis is both admiration and hatred. His behavior is both crazy and unreasonable, leaving Louis at a loss. So his heart that was hidden under the old soul and attached to his companions was ignored by the two of them.
In his recollection, Louis finally admitted that maybe Leicester paid more to Claudia than he did. They are like Claudia's parents, except that Louis played the white face and the red face Lester, and got more blame.
When Claudia hysterically slashed Wright's face with a knife, he just stared wide-eyed in surprise to condemn her. At that moment, Lester must be more sad than angry. After that, the vampires subordinate to Amon found out that Claudia had killed her kind, and decided to execute her. The actions were crazy and decisive, leaving no room for it, and the difference between family members and outsiders was clearly visible.
Claudia's soul is filled with the anger of monopoly and immature growth, and the guilt of Claudia and the expectation of being depended on cover up Louis's conscience, so Lester, a generation of vampires with peerless elegance, just abused over and over again.
Lester's heart is actually so naive and fragile. He couldn't keep Louis, so he created Claudia like Louis' daughter. Claudia, who was regarded as her daughter, scratched her face, and she just condemned and not punished. , Claudia gave a little coquettish gift, and he reconciled easily. This is simply a child. Behind all the arrogant words, Lester has compromised again and again, as long as his family is willing to stay with him and never leave.
Lester is a 100 attack power, defense and counter-attack of -100 Zhan Wu scum. And Louis only saw the bad side of him and ignored the other side.
The night interview seems to be about Louis' twisted and tangled memories, but in essence it is about the tragedy of Lester's loneliness and loneliness.
Lester is just a person who is afraid of loneliness.
