Interview with the Vampire, 1994

A sad slice of ham and like 10 grapes. Optional – two butter knives to eat this mistake.

#Nailed it.

adirotyndOH MY GOD tvc iwtv I never actually noticed jesus christ these fucking no wonder everyone KNEW y’all were goddamn DEAD ‘yes tonight I think we’ll have two (2) slices of ham and maybe some grapes but only a few’ ‘grapes go with ham right it’s been so long since I tasted anything but the blood of the innocent I can’t rly lol jk’ ‘I meant I just love grapes with ham it’s my fave dish I wrap the grapes in the ham’ and no wonder Yvette was practically in tears she’s over there like Red on OItNB ‘I HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THE FOOD’

I’m confused! Louisiana is in USA as well as New Orleans but Lestat is French and Louis too…… I don’t get it!

Movie!IWTV sorta gives the impression that Louis was born in New Orleans and only briefly has Lestat admitting to coming from France. They are actually both from France! (and BTW, New Orleans is a city in Louisiana, which is a state in the USA).

The Pointe du Lacs came to the US from France at some unspecified point in his life, but most people headcanon it was when Louis was a young child, too young to remember.

  • “We’d received a land grant and settled two indigo plantations on the Mississippi very near New Orleans… You see, we lived far better there than we could have ever lived in France.” – Louis de Pointe du Lac, IWTV

The de Lioncourts* lived in a poor provincial town in the middle of nowhere, aka the Auvergne region, in France:

  • “…my father’s land in the Auvergne in France, and these were the last decades before the French Revolution.” – Lestat de Lioncourt, TVL

*Note that Lestat’s mother was Italian (she grew up in Naples) so he and his brothers are all technically half-French, half-Italian.

Just another child of darkness…

Her superglue hands are a common joke in Germany and I couldn’t help myself but bursting out in laughter when I saw Louis. 

!!!!! omg she’s #one of us!

This should be our new secret hand sign, btw. Hand diamond = VC fandom, aka Children of Darkness.

So when I don’t know where to put my hands next time walking through town I will do this^and look if somebody will do it back.

YES do the thing! I’m starting to think this was smtg Neil Jordan did alot on set and they all found themselves mimicking him, BUT WHO KNOWS??

Reblog with yours, or post as #VC Diamondhands.

You’re so amazing :3 I swear, I’m learning so much about VC from this blog, it’s a delight. Carry on.

Ah! Such high praise, thank u! That means a lot, coming from you.

Of course I am more than happy to explain u all a thing or two or a bazillion about VC *u*

Please feel free to ask or share or participate in any way at all, bc of reasons. 

And I learn so much about Captain America from americancaptaincomic! Children of Darkness (<—what we are perhaps calling ourselves now),

People Off the Page (<—what I have been calling ourselves before), my fanged little trash kittens and monsters (<—new thing I started calling ourselves), go check out this fanart/webcomic, the style is so charming and the writing so smart, you may find yourself slipping into being a Stony shipper, as I have become. 

Psssst Steve/Tony is similar to Louis/Lestat! Ego size comparisons are a match for Lestat and Tony, har har har…

Interview with the Vampire (book) Sentence Starters

I’m in a mood, so here’s another sentence meme.

“Evil is always possible.”
“The world chances, we do not, therein lies the irony that kills us.”
“Evil is a point of view.”
“God kills, and so shall we.”
“The only power that exists is inside ourselves.”
“Goodness is eternally difficult.”
“And sometimes i found myself so vividly aware of him it was as if he had only just left the room and the ring of his voice were still there.”
“Whether a man would die tomorrow or the day after or eventually… it doesn’t matter.”
“I knew I was home.”
“I walked the streets.”
“Do you know what it means to be loved by Death?”
“Do you know what it means to have Death know your name?”
“Don’t you see?”
“I’m at odds with everything and always have been!”
“I have never belonged anywhere with anyone at any time!”
“I love you still, that’s the torment of it.”
“The measure of my hatred is that love.”
“Do you know now how much I hate you?”
“Don’t be a fool for the Devil, darling.”
“You see that old woman?”
“You will never grow old, and you will never die.”
“I shall never ever grow up.”
“Let the flesh instruct the mind.”
“A starving child is a frightful sight.”
“I want you. I want you more than anything in the world.”
“Mortal beauty often makes me ache.”
“That is the crowning evil, that we can even go so far as to love each other, you and I.”
“Who else, knowing us as we know each other, could do anything but destroy us?”
“I look like an angel, but I’m not.”
“We’re beautiful like the diamond-backed snake, or the striped tiger, yet we’re merciless killers.”
“You know nothing.”
“And we must live with the knowledge that there is no knowledge.”
“But I can’t hate you, my love.”
“Now it’s time to leave him.”
“What does it mean to die when you can live until the end of the world?”
“I wanted love and goodness.”
“It was my death.”
“I saw my last sunrise.”
“And then I said farewell to sunlight, and set out to become what I became.”
“You haven’t tears enough for what you’ve done to me.”
“I might have known what it was to walk at your side.”
“Aren’t there gradations of evil?”
“Is evil a great perilous gulf into which one falls with the first sin, plummeting to the depth?”
“I never changed after that.”
“I was satisfied. I was filled to the brim. But I was dead. And I was changeless.”
“You are the night, and the night alone understands you and enfolds you in its arms.”
“How could you believe in these old fantastical lies, these myths, these emblems of the supernatural?”
“My power would be your power.”
“I have the dreadful feeling that I don’t exist at all.”
“I shudder when I’m near you.”
“You cannot pass back to the world of human warmth with your new eyes.”
“Not a wild, mortal fear, but something cold like a hook in my side.”
“I wish I could.”
“You reflect your age differently. You reflect its broken heart.”
“Killing is no ordinary act.”
“Only the doll had a human face, only the doll.”
“Well, I tell you I am no longer that passive, weak creature that has spun evil from evil until the web is vast and thick while I remain its stultified victim.”
“It’s over!”

Was the grape scene in the movie scripted?

As far as I know, after 400 years, 21 years of torturing myself with this trash i love, that scene was unscripted, but it was probably storyboarded!

Although I don’t have them for this scene, I’ve found a few storyboards by Martin Asbury for this movie. Someone needs to pry it from him!!!

I did check, this scene is not in the April ‘92 script, but much of that script changed. Someone out there must have a more recent script… There are several that were written after the movie came out, those are transcriptions of what was released in the final cut, not the last shooting script.
