Interview with the Vampire The Vampire Chronicles
|
| 00:02:57 |
So you want me to tell |
| 00:03:00 |
Like I said, that's what I do. |
| 00:03:04 |
I'm a collector of lives. |
| 00:03:05 |
FM radio, KFRC. |
| 00:03:07 |
You'll need a lot of tape for my story. |
| 00:03:10 |
No problem. I got a bag full of tape. |
| 00:03:13 |
You followed me here, didn't you? |
| 00:03:16 |
Yeah, I suppose I did. |
| 00:03:18 |
You seemed very interesting. |
| 00:03:21 |
This is where you live? |
| 00:03:23 |
No. |
| 00:03:25 |
It's just a room. |
| 00:03:29 |
What do you say we get started? |
| 00:03:34 |
What do you do? |
| 00:03:35 |
I'm a vampire. |
| 00:03:39 |
I haven't heard that before. |
| 00:03:42 |
You mean this literally, I take it? |
| 00:03:44 |
Absolutely. |
| 00:03:47 |
I was waiting for you in that alley. |
| 00:03:49 |
Watching you watching me. |
| 00:03:52 |
And then you began to speak. |
| 00:03:55 |
What a lucky break for me. |
| 00:03:57 |
Perhaps lucky for both of us. |
| 00:04:03 |
You said you were... |
| 00:04:05 |
...waiting for me. |
| 00:04:07 |
What were you going to do? |
| 00:04:10 |
Yes. |
| 00:04:12 |
But you needn't be concerned now. |
| 00:04:17 |
You really believe this, don't you, |
| 00:04:21 |
We can't begin this way. |
| 00:04:23 |
Let me turn on the light. |
| 00:04:25 |
-I thought vampires didn't like light. |
| 00:04:29 |
I only wanted to prepare you. |
| 00:04:34 |
Christ! |
| 00:04:35 |
Don't be frightened. |
| 00:04:37 |
I want this opportunity. |
| 00:04:39 |
How the hell did you do that? |
| 00:04:41 |
The same as you do. |
| 00:04:43 |
A series of simple gestures. |
| 00:04:46 |
Only I moved too fast for you to see. |
| 00:04:49 |
I'm flesh and blood... |
| 00:04:51 |
...but not human. |
| 00:04:53 |
I haven't been human for 200 years. |
| 00:04:58 |
Please.... |
| 00:05:07 |
How can I put you at ease? |
| 00:05:10 |
Shall we begin like "David Copperfield"? |
| 00:05:12 |
"I am born..." |
| 00:05:13 |
"...I grew up." |
| 00:05:16 |
Or shall we begin when I was |
| 00:05:22 |
That's where we should start, |
| 00:05:27 |
You're not lying, are you? |
| 00:05:30 |
Why should I lie? |
| 00:05:33 |
1791 was the year it happened. |
| 00:05:40 |
I was 24. |
| 00:05:42 |
Younger than you are now. |
| 00:05:45 |
But times were different then. |
| 00:05:48 |
The master of a large plantation, |
| 00:05:55 |
I had lost my wife in childbirth. |
| 00:05:57 |
She and the infant had been |
| 00:06:02 |
I would've been happy to join them. |
| 00:06:06 |
I couldn't bear the pain of their loss. |
| 00:06:09 |
I longed to be released from it. |
| 00:06:23 |
I wanted to lose it all: |
| 00:06:26 |
my wealth... |
| 00:06:28 |
...my estate... |
| 00:06:30 |
...my sanity. |
| 00:06:39 |
How many aces are in a deck? |
| 00:06:41 |
Are you calling me a cheat? |
| 00:06:46 |
No, I'm calling you a piece of stinking offal! |
| 00:06:54 |
You lack the courage of your convictions. |
| 00:06:57 |
Most of all, I longed for death. |
| 00:07:01 |
I know that now. |
| 00:07:03 |
I invited it. |
| 00:07:05 |
A release from the pain of living. |
| 00:07:28 |
My invitation was open to anyone. |
| 00:07:31 |
To the whore at my side. |
| 00:07:34 |
To the pimp that followed. |
| 00:07:39 |
But it was a vampire that accepted. |
| 00:08:07 |
Give me your money or you die! |
| 00:08:42 |
Do you still want death? |
| 00:08:44 |
Or have you tasted it enough? |
| 00:08:46 |
Enough. |
| 00:08:56 |
He left me there, on the banks |
| 00:09:00 |
...somewhere between life and death. |
| 00:09:21 |
Who are you? |
| 00:09:24 |
I've come to answer your prayers. |
| 00:09:29 |
Life has no meaning anymore...does it? |
| 00:09:36 |
The wine has no taste. |
| 00:09:38 |
The food sickens you. |
| 00:09:40 |
There seems no reason for any of it... |
| 00:09:48 |
What if I could give it back to you? |
| 00:09:50 |
Pluck out the pain... |
| 00:09:52 |
...and give you another life? |
| 00:09:54 |
One you could never imagine. |
| 00:09:58 |
And it would be...for all time. |
| 00:10:02 |
And sickness... |
| 00:10:03 |
...and death... |
| 00:10:05 |
...could never touch you again. |
| 00:10:09 |
Don't be afraid. |
| 00:10:11 |
I'm going to give you the choice... |
| 00:10:14 |
...I... |
| 00:10:15 |
...never had. |
| 00:10:25 |
That morning, I was not yet a vampire... |
| 00:10:28 |
...and I saw my last sunrise. |
| 00:10:31 |
I remember it completely... |
| 00:10:34 |
...and yet I can't recall |
| 00:10:40 |
I watched the whole magnificence |
| 00:10:43 |
...as if it were the first. |
| 00:10:49 |
And then I said farewell to sunlight... |
| 00:10:52 |
...and set out to become... |
| 00:10:54 |
...what I became. |
| 00:11:14 |
Have you said your good-byes to the light? |
| 00:11:39 |
I've drained you... |
| 00:11:40 |
...to the point of death. |
| 00:11:43 |
If I leave you here... |
| 00:11:45 |
...you'll die. |
| 00:11:48 |
Or... |
| 00:11:50 |
...you can be young always, my friend... |
| 00:11:54 |
...as we are now. |
| 00:11:57 |
But you must tell me... |
| 00:12:00 |
...will you come... |
| 00:12:01 |
...or no? |
| 00:12:06 |
Yes. |
| 00:12:12 |
Yes. |
| 00:13:14 |
Your body's dying. |
| 00:13:16 |
Pay no attention. |
| 00:13:19 |
It happens to us all. |
| 00:13:49 |
Now look... |
| 00:13:50 |
...with your vampire eyes. |
| 00:14:10 |
What did you see? |
| 00:14:13 |
No words can describe it. |
| 00:14:16 |
Might as well ask Heaven what it sees. |
| 00:14:19 |
No human can know. |
| 00:14:22 |
The statue seemed to move, but didn't. |
| 00:14:25 |
The world had changed, |
| 00:14:29 |
I was a newborn vampire, |
| 00:14:38 |
Perhaps you'd like another cigarette? |
| 00:14:42 |
I would. It's not bothering you, is it? |
| 00:14:45 |
I don't assume it would. |
| 00:14:49 |
I don't think so. |
| 00:14:52 |
-What about crucifixes? |
| 00:14:55 |
Can you look at them? |
| 00:14:57 |
Actually, I'm quite fond of |
| 00:15:01 |
And the stake through the heart? |
| 00:15:03 |
Nonsense. |
| 00:15:04 |
And coffins? |
| 00:15:06 |
Coffins. |
| 00:15:08 |
Coffins, unfortunately, are a necessity. |
| 00:15:13 |
Don't worry. |
| 00:15:15 |
Soon... |
| 00:15:17 |
...you'll be sleeping as |
| 00:15:22 |
And when you awake... |
| 00:15:24 |
...I'll be waiting for you... |
| 00:15:27 |
...and so will all the world. |
| 00:15:38 |
Blood, I was to find, |
| 00:15:42 |
I awoke the next evening with |
| 00:15:47 |
Once you taste this... |
| 00:15:49 |
...you'll never go to another tavern again. |
| 00:15:53 |
You think so? |
| 00:15:55 |
But what if I'd rather taste your lips? |
| 00:15:59 |
My lips are even sweeter still. |
| 00:16:16 |
My friend... |
| 00:16:18 |
...should taste those lips. |
| 00:16:21 |
Is his... |
| 00:16:22 |
...kiss... |
| 00:16:24 |
...as deep... |
| 00:16:25 |
...as yours? |
| 00:16:27 |
Deeper, ma chérie. |
| 00:17:01 |
I will not take her life. |
| 00:17:04 |
I've done it for you. |
| 00:17:09 |
She's dead... |
| 00:17:11 |
...as a doornail, my friend. |
| 00:17:20 |
It's so easy, you almost feel sorry for them. |
| 00:17:30 |
You'll get used to killing. |
| 00:17:31 |
Just forget about that mortal coil. |
| 00:17:35 |
You'll become accustomed to it, |
| 00:17:45 |
Are you not hungry? |
| 00:17:46 |
Au contraire, ma chérie. |
| 00:17:48 |
He could eat the whole colony. |
| 00:18:08 |
I will finish it. |
| 00:18:09 |
Now leave us. |
| 00:18:18 |
Can't you pretend, you fool? |
| 00:18:21 |
Don't give the game away. |
| 00:18:23 |
We're lucky to have such a home. |
| 00:18:34 |
Pretend to drink, at least. |
| 00:18:41 |
Such fine crystal shouldn't go to waste. |
| 00:19:04 |
I know. |
| 00:19:06 |
It gets cold so quickly. |
| 00:19:08 |
We can live like this? |
| 00:19:10 |
On animal blood? |
| 00:19:11 |
I wouldn't call it living. Call it surviving. |
| 00:19:15 |
Useful trick if you're on a ship for a month. |
| 00:19:20 |
There's nothing in the world |
| 00:19:23 |
Fascination. |
| 00:19:25 |
Yes. |
| 00:19:28 |
-I'm bored with this prattle. |
| 00:19:30 |
It's possible. |
| 00:19:32 |
Anything is possible. |
| 00:19:33 |
But just try it for a week. |
| 00:19:36 |
Come into New Orleans and let |
| 00:19:50 |
Lestat killed two, sometimes three a night. |
| 00:19:54 |
A fresh young girl... |
| 00:19:56 |
...was his favorite for |
| 00:19:59 |
For seconds, he preferred a gilded, |
| 00:20:04 |
But the snob in him |
| 00:20:08 |
The blood of the aristocrat |
| 00:20:12 |
The trick is not to think about it. |
| 00:20:15 |
You see that one? |
| 00:20:16 |
Widow St. Clair. |
| 00:20:18 |
She had that gorgeous young fop |
| 00:20:22 |
How do you know? |
| 00:20:25 |
Read her thoughts. |
| 00:20:29 |
Read her thoughts. |
| 00:20:36 |
I can't. |
| 00:20:39 |
The "dark gift" is different for each of us. |
| 00:20:42 |
But one thing is true of everyone. |
| 00:20:47 |
Just take my word for it. |
| 00:20:50 |
She blamed a slave for his murder. |
| 00:20:52 |
Imagine what they did to him. |
| 00:20:55 |
Evil-doers are easier, and they taste better. |
| 00:21:29 |
Where are we going? |
| 00:21:37 |
Nowhere. |
| 00:21:40 |
Now, young man, you really amaze me! |
| 00:21:45 |
I'm old enough to be your grandmother. |
| 00:22:02 |
Oh, yes, that's the melody. |
| 00:22:05 |
I remember it. |
| 00:22:18 |
Murderer! |
| 00:22:20 |
My little papillons! |
| 00:22:21 |
My butterflies, he killed them! |
| 00:22:26 |
You... whining coward of a vampire... |
| 00:22:29 |
...who prowls killing rats and poodles! |
| 00:22:33 |
You've condemned me to Hell! |
| 00:22:34 |
I don't know any Hell. |
| 00:22:41 |
That's more like it! |
| 00:22:43 |
Anger! Fury! |
| 00:22:44 |
That's why I chose you! |
| 00:22:52 |
But you can't kill me, Louis. |
| 00:23:01 |
Feed... |
| 00:23:02 |
...on what you will. |
| 00:23:05 |
Rats, chickens... |
| 00:23:07 |
...poodles. |
| 00:23:09 |
I'll leave you to it... |
| 00:23:11 |
...and watch you come around. |
| 00:23:13 |
Remember: |
| 00:23:14 |
Life without me... |
| 00:23:17 |
...would be even more... |
| 00:23:18 |
...unbearable. |
| 00:24:16 |
Consider yourself lucky. |
| 00:24:19 |
In Paris, a vampire must be |
| 00:24:23 |
Paris? |
| 00:24:25 |
Here all one needs is a pair of fangs. |
| 00:24:28 |
You came from Paris? |
| 00:24:30 |
As did the one who made me. |
| 00:24:34 |
Tell me about him. |
| 00:24:39 |
I learned absolutely nothing. |
| 00:24:43 |
I wasn't given a choice, remember? |
| 00:24:46 |
You must know something |
| 00:24:48 |
Why? Why should I know these things? |
| 00:24:51 |
Do you know them? |
| 00:24:53 |
That noise... |
| 00:24:54 |
...it's driving me mad! |
| 00:24:56 |
We've been here for weeks |
| 00:24:59 |
They know about us. |
| 00:25:01 |
They watch us dine on empty plates |
| 00:25:06 |
Come... |
| 00:25:07 |
...to New Orleans then. |
| 00:25:09 |
The Paris Opera's in town. |
| 00:25:13 |
...cuisine. |
| 00:25:14 |
Forgive me if I have a |
| 00:25:20 |
You'll soon run out of chickens, Louis. |
| 00:25:54 |
Monsieur Louis? |
| 00:25:56 |
You don't want any supper? |
| 00:26:00 |
No, ma chérie. |
| 00:26:02 |
We're worried about you, Master. |
| 00:26:06 |
When is it that you go riding in the field? |
| 00:26:10 |
And how long since you've |
| 00:26:15 |
Everywhere there is death. |
| 00:26:20 |
Are you still our master at all? |
| 00:26:22 |
That will be all, Yvette. |
| 00:26:25 |
I will not go unless you listen to me. |
| 00:26:29 |
You must send away this friend of yours. |
| 00:26:33 |
The slaves are all frightened of him... |
| 00:26:37 |
...and they are frightened of you. |
| 00:26:44 |
I'm frightened of myself. |
| 00:27:32 |
Hear me now! |
| 00:27:34 |
This place is cursed! |
| 00:27:36 |
Damned! |
| 00:27:38 |
And, yes, your master is the Devil! |
| 00:27:41 |
Get out while you can! You're all free! |
| 00:27:44 |
Do you hear me? |
| 00:27:47 |
Run! |
| 00:27:48 |
Run! |
| 00:27:49 |
Save yourselves! |
| 00:28:38 |
Perfect! Perfect! |
| 00:28:40 |
Just burn the place! |
| 00:28:43 |
Have us living in a field, like cattle! |
| 00:28:46 |
You thought you could have it all. |
| 00:28:48 |
Shut up, Louis! |
| 00:28:50 |
Come on! |
| 00:29:12 |
Where are we? |
| 00:29:14 |
Where do you think, my idiot friend? |
| 00:29:17 |
We're in a nice, filthy cemetery. |
| 00:29:20 |
Are you happy? |
| 00:29:22 |
Is this fitting? Proper enough? |
| 00:29:25 |
We belong in Hell. |
| 00:29:27 |
What if there is no Hell? |
| 00:29:28 |
Or they don't want us there? |
| 00:29:33 |
But there was a Hell. |
| 00:29:36 |
And no matter where we moved to, |
| 00:29:40 |
We rented rooms on the |
| 00:29:45 |
Your skin is icy. |
| 00:30:07 |
Your friend has no head for wine. |
| 00:30:13 |
Don't worry. |
| 00:30:15 |
I can warm that cold skin of |
| 00:30:19 |
Do you think so? |
| 00:30:21 |
Why... |
| 00:30:23 |
...you're warm now! |
| 00:30:26 |
But the price is high. |
| 00:30:28 |
Your pretty friend, I exhausted her. |
| 00:30:34 |
Soft. |
| 00:30:37 |
So soft. |
| 00:30:40 |
I can see you lying on a bed of satin. |
| 00:30:44 |
Such things you say. |
| 00:30:47 |
Do you know what manner of bed? |
| 00:31:15 |
Should we put out the light? |
| 00:31:23 |
And then put out the light. |
| 00:31:39 |
But once I've put out thy light... |
| 00:31:42 |
...I cannot... |
| 00:31:45 |
...give it vital breath again. |
| 00:31:49 |
Its needs must wither. |
| 00:32:03 |
For you, Louis. |
| 00:32:04 |
You can pretend it's wine. |
| 00:32:16 |
She's not dead! |
| 00:32:17 |
You're in love with your mortal nature. |
| 00:32:21 |
You call this peace? |
| 00:32:22 |
We're predators, whose all-seeing |
| 00:32:26 |
-The girl, Lestat! |
| 00:32:29 |
No! |
| 00:32:36 |
Now, my child. |
| 00:32:40 |
You're tired, you want to sleep! |
| 00:32:51 |
It's a coffin! |
| 00:32:53 |
A coffin! Let me out! |
| 00:32:55 |
I'm not dead! |
| 00:32:57 |
It's your coffin, enjoy it. Most of us |
| 00:33:01 |
Why do you do this? |
| 00:33:03 |
I like to do it. I enjoy it. |
| 00:33:07 |
Kill them swiftly if you will, but do it! |
| 00:33:10 |
For do not doubt you are a killer, Louis! |
| 00:33:20 |
-What's that? |
| 00:33:23 |
So it is. You must be dead. |
| 00:33:27 |
I'm not dead, am I? |
| 00:33:29 |
You're not dead. |
| 00:33:30 |
Not yet. |
| 00:33:32 |
Finish this now! |
| 00:33:33 |
You finish it! |
| 00:33:35 |
Save me from him! |
| 00:33:36 |
Save me! |
| 00:33:40 |
You'll let me go? |
| 00:33:41 |
I can't die like this! |
| 00:33:44 |
I need a priest. |
| 00:33:45 |
My friend is a priest. |
| 00:33:48 |
Unless...I make her one of us. |
| 00:33:50 |
No! |
| 00:33:51 |
Then take her, Louis, end her suffering! |
| 00:33:56 |
No! |
| 00:34:15 |
Now... |
| 00:34:17 |
...are you happy? |
| 00:34:22 |
My God! |
| 00:34:25 |
To think you... |
| 00:34:27 |
...are all I have to learn from. |
| 00:34:33 |
In the Old World... |
| 00:34:36 |
...they called it the "dark gift." |
| 00:34:41 |
And I gave it to you. |
| 00:35:04 |
Don't go that way, Monsieur. |
| 00:35:07 |
-Go back the way you came! |
| 00:35:25 |
Mama. |
| 00:35:49 |
Please help us. |
| 00:35:51 |
Papa left us and didn't come back. |
| 00:36:01 |
Please, wake Mama, Monsieur. |
| 00:36:29 |
My philosopher. My martyr. |
| 00:36:32 |
"Never take a human life." |
| 00:36:36 |
This calls for a celebration. |
| 00:36:47 |
There's still life in the old lady yet. |
| 00:36:53 |
Come back! |
| 00:36:55 |
You are what you are! |
| 00:36:59 |
Merciful death. |
| 00:37:02 |
How you love your precious guilt. |
| 00:37:13 |
Her blood coursed in my veins... |
| 00:37:15 |
...sweeter than life itself. |
| 00:37:17 |
And, as it did, Lestat's words |
| 00:37:20 |
I knew peace only when I killed. |
| 00:37:22 |
When I heard her heart in that terrible |
| 00:37:59 |
All I need to find you, Louis, |
| 00:38:11 |
Pain is terrible for you. |
| 00:38:14 |
You feel it like no other creature, |
| 00:38:19 |
You don't want it to go on. |
| 00:38:21 |
No. |
| 00:38:25 |
Then do what it is in your nature to do... |
| 00:38:29 |
...and you will feel as you felt |
| 00:38:34 |
Evil is a point of view. |
| 00:38:37 |
God kills indiscriminately... |
| 00:38:40 |
...and so shall we. |
| 00:38:43 |
For no creatures under God are as we are. |
| 00:38:48 |
...as ourselves. |
| 00:38:51 |
I have a gift for you. |
| 00:38:55 |
Come. |
| 00:39:00 |
Please. |
| 00:39:14 |
-She's here. |
| 00:39:17 |
You need... |
| 00:39:19 |
...company... |
| 00:39:21 |
...more congenial than mine. |
| 00:39:28 |
Remember how you wanted her? |
| 00:39:31 |
The taste of her? |
| 00:39:34 |
I thought I'd killed her. |
| 00:39:39 |
Don't worry. |
| 00:39:42 |
Your conscience is clear. |
| 00:39:56 |
Claudia. |
| 00:40:04 |
Listen to me. |
| 00:40:06 |
You're ill, my precious. |
| 00:40:09 |
And I'm going to give you |
| 00:40:24 |
No. |
| 00:40:26 |
You want her to die then? |
| 00:40:42 |
That's it. Yes. |
| 00:40:58 |
Stop! |
| 00:41:01 |
Stop! |
| 00:41:03 |
Enough! |
| 00:41:42 |
I want some more. |
| 00:41:44 |
Of course you want more. |
| 00:42:14 |
Gently, chérie. |
| 00:42:17 |
They're so innocent. |
| 00:42:20 |
They must not be made to suffer. |
| 00:42:24 |
Good. |
| 00:42:27 |
Yes. |
| 00:42:28 |
All right, now. |
| 00:42:30 |
Stop. |
| 00:42:34 |
That's enough, chérie. |
| 00:42:36 |
You must stop before the heart stops. |
| 00:42:40 |
I want more. |
| 00:42:41 |
I know. |
| 00:42:42 |
But it's best in the beginning... |
| 00:42:45 |
...lest the Death takes you down with it. |
| 00:42:48 |
You've done very well. Look at you. |
| 00:42:51 |
Not a drop spilt. Very good. |
| 00:42:55 |
Where is Mama? |
| 00:43:00 |
Mama's gone... |
| 00:43:02 |
...to Heaven, chérie, like that sweet lady... |
| 00:43:07 |
They all go to Heaven. |
| 00:43:09 |
All but us. |
| 00:43:11 |
Do you want to frighten our daughter? |
| 00:43:14 |
I'm not your daughter. |
| 00:43:15 |
Oh, yes, you are. |
| 00:43:18 |
You're my and Louis' daughter now. |
| 00:43:20 |
You see, Louis was going to leave us. |
| 00:43:24 |
He was going to go away. |
| 00:43:26 |
But now he's not. |
| 00:43:29 |
Now he's going to stay... |
| 00:43:31 |
...and make you happy. |
| 00:43:35 |
Louis. |
| 00:43:41 |
You fiend. |
| 00:43:43 |
One happy family. |
| 00:43:54 |
He did it to make you stay with him? |
| 00:43:57 |
Perhaps. |
| 00:43:58 |
He knew me. He knew I would love |
| 00:44:04 |
But there was more to it. |
| 00:44:06 |
He lavished affection on her, |
| 00:44:11 |
Perhaps, in the end, |
| 00:44:16 |
-I need more light. |
| 00:44:18 |
-I'll go blind without another lamp. |
| 00:44:21 |
Or let me fit this child during the day. |
| 00:44:23 |
Well, I am afraid, madame, |
| 00:44:28 |
A little child, she was. |
| 00:44:30 |
But also a fierce killer... |
| 00:44:32 |
...now capable of the ruthless pursuit |
| 00:44:38 |
Let me kiss it better. |
| 00:44:54 |
Now... |
| 00:44:55 |
...who will we get to finish your dress? |
| 00:44:59 |
Remember, never in our home! |
| 00:45:02 |
She slept in my coffin at first... |
| 00:45:05 |
...curling her little fingers around my hair... |
| 00:45:08 |
...till the day when she |
| 00:45:18 |
But still, whenever she awoke... |
| 00:45:20 |
...she would crawl into mine. |
| 00:45:33 |
They died fast in those days, before, |
| 00:45:36 |
...to delay the moment till |
| 00:45:53 |
Why are you crying, child? |
| 00:45:55 |
Are you lost, my love? |
| 00:45:57 |
Mama! |
| 00:46:00 |
Hush, now, don't cry. |
| 00:46:02 |
We'll find her. |
| 00:46:10 |
Mind the thumb, girl. Mind the thumb. |
| 00:46:27 |
They're expensive, my dear. |
| 00:46:31 |
Maybe too expensive for |
| 00:46:47 |
Claudia! What have we told you! |
| 00:46:50 |
Never in the house. |
| 00:46:54 |
Give me some room. |
| 00:46:57 |
To me, she was a child. |
| 00:46:59 |
But to Lestat, a pupil... |
| 00:47:01 |
...an infant prodigy with |
| 00:47:05 |
Together, they finished off whole families. |
| 00:47:15 |
Wonderful, wonderful. |
| 00:47:17 |
Now try something |
| 00:47:32 |
Time can pass quickly for |
| 00:47:35 |
With us, it was the same. |
| 00:47:38 |
The years flew by like minutes. |
| 00:47:41 |
Sailboats gave way to steamships... |
| 00:47:43 |
...disgorging an endless menu |
| 00:47:48 |
A new world had sprung up around us. |
| 00:47:50 |
And we were all Americans now. |
| 00:48:00 |
This filthy modern tide! |
| 00:48:02 |
What I wouldn't give for a drop |
| 00:48:07 |
Yankees are not to your taste? |
| 00:48:09 |
Their Democratic flavor |
| 00:48:30 |
Now that is pure Creole. |
| 00:48:35 |
Trust Claudia to have found her. |
| 00:48:41 |
What? |
| 00:48:42 |
Don't you want her? |
| 00:48:44 |
I want to be her. |
| 00:48:48 |
Can I? |
| 00:48:50 |
Be like her one day? |
| 00:48:55 |
More melancholy nonsense. |
| 00:48:59 |
Soon you'll be eating rats. |
| 00:49:02 |
Rats? When did you eat rats, Louis? |
| 00:49:06 |
It was a long, long time ago. |
| 00:49:08 |
Before you were born. |
| 00:49:10 |
And I don't recommend them. |
| 00:49:15 |
Thirty years had passed, yet her body |
| 00:49:20 |
Her eyes alone told the story of her age, |
| 00:49:25 |
...with a questioning... |
| 00:49:26 |
...that would one day need an answer. |
| 00:49:38 |
Another doll. |
| 00:49:39 |
I have dozens, you realize. |
| 00:49:42 |
I thought you could use one more. |
| 00:49:45 |
Why always on this night? |
| 00:49:48 |
What do you mean? |
| 00:49:50 |
You always give me a doll on |
| 00:49:55 |
I didn't realize. |
| 00:49:56 |
Is this my birthday? |
| 00:50:02 |
You dress me like a doll. |
| 00:50:05 |
You make my hair like a doll. |
| 00:50:07 |
Why? |
| 00:50:08 |
Some of these, Claudia, are so old... |
| 00:50:12 |
...tattered. |
| 00:50:14 |
-You should throw them away. |
| 00:50:30 |
What have you done? |
| 00:50:31 |
What you told me to do! |
| 00:50:33 |
-You leave a corpse here to rot? |
| 00:50:36 |
-I wanted to be her! |
| 00:50:39 |
She pollutes the very house we live in! |
| 00:50:42 |
Do you want me to be a doll forever? |
| 00:50:46 |
Don't! |
| 00:50:48 |
Why not? Can't I change... |
| 00:50:50 |
...like everyone else? |
| 00:51:16 |
Which one of you did it? |
| 00:51:19 |
Which one of you did it? |
| 00:51:21 |
Which one of you made me the way I am? |
| 00:51:24 |
What you are? |
| 00:51:25 |
A vampire gone insane, |
| 00:51:29 |
And if I cut my hair again? |
| 00:51:31 |
It will grow back again. |
| 00:51:32 |
But it wasn't always so! |
| 00:51:34 |
I had a mother once. |
| 00:51:37 |
He was mortal, same as she. |
| 00:51:39 |
And so was I! |
| 00:51:41 |
You made us what we are! |
| 00:51:43 |
Stop her. |
| 00:51:44 |
Did you do it to me? |
| 00:51:53 |
How did you do it? |
| 00:51:54 |
And why should I tell you? |
| 00:51:57 |
It's in my power. |
| 00:51:59 |
Why yours alone? |
| 00:52:01 |
Tell me how it was done! |
| 00:52:03 |
Be glad... |
| 00:52:05 |
...I made you what you are. |
| 00:52:08 |
You'd be dead now if I hadn't. |
| 00:52:10 |
Like that damned corpse! |
| 00:52:13 |
You get rid of it. |
| 00:52:26 |
Louis, why? |
| 00:52:27 |
You've got to tell me. |
| 00:52:35 |
You see the old woman? |
| 00:52:38 |
That will never happen to you. |
| 00:52:41 |
You will never grow old. |
| 00:52:43 |
And you will never die. |
| 00:52:47 |
And it means something else too, |
| 00:52:53 |
I shall never, ever grow up. |
| 00:53:01 |
I hate him. |
| 00:53:04 |
Tell me how it came to be that I am this... |
| 00:53:08 |
...thing. |
| 00:53:15 |
For thirty years I'd avoided that place. |
| 00:53:20 |
Yet I found my way back there... |
| 00:53:22 |
...with hardly an upward glance. |
| 00:53:40 |
You... |
| 00:53:41 |
...fed on me? |
| 00:53:43 |
Yes. |
| 00:53:46 |
And he found me with you. |
| 00:53:50 |
Then he cut his wrist |
| 00:53:53 |
...and you were a vampire then... |
| 00:53:56 |
...and have been every night thereafter. |
| 00:54:01 |
You both did it. |
| 00:54:04 |
I took your life. |
| 00:54:08 |
He gave you another one. |
| 00:54:11 |
And here it is. |
| 00:54:13 |
I hate you both. |
| 00:54:27 |
I walked all night. |
| 00:54:30 |
I walked as I walked years before... |
| 00:54:32 |
...when my mind swam with guilt |
| 00:54:37 |
I thought of all the things |
| 00:54:42 |
And I longed for one second's peace. |
| 00:54:53 |
Locked together in hatred. |
| 00:55:00 |
But I can't hate you, Louis. |
| 00:55:08 |
Louis, my love. |
| 00:55:12 |
I was mortal till you... |
| 00:55:15 |
...gave me your immortal kiss. |
| 00:55:19 |
You became my mother and my father. |
| 00:55:24 |
And so I'm yours forever. |
| 00:55:28 |
But now it's time to end it, Louis. |
| 00:55:32 |
Now it's time to leave him. |
| 00:55:38 |
He will never let us go. |
| 00:55:51 |
Really? |
| 00:56:04 |
What is it now? You irritate me. |
| 00:56:07 |
...irritates me! |
| 00:56:08 |
Does it? |
| 00:56:09 |
I found someone who'll be a |
| 00:56:13 |
Is that supposed to frighten me? |
| 00:56:15 |
You're spoiled, |
| 00:56:19 |
You need a brother. |
| 00:56:21 |
Or I do. |
| 00:56:23 |
I'm weary of you both. |
| 00:56:26 |
I suppose we could people |
| 00:56:29 |
...the three of us. |
| 00:56:31 |
Oh, not you... |
| 00:56:33 |
...my little Claudia. |
| 00:56:35 |
You're a liar. |
| 00:56:37 |
But you upset my plans. |
| 00:56:40 |
What plans? |
| 00:56:43 |
I came to make peace with you. |
| 00:56:45 |
Even though you're the father of lies... |
| 00:56:48 |
...I want things to be as they were. |
| 00:56:52 |
Stop pestering me then. |
| 00:56:57 |
I must do more than that. |
| 00:57:00 |
I've brought a present for you. |
| 00:57:04 |
Then I hope it's... |
| 00:57:06 |
...a beautiful woman... |
| 00:57:08 |
...with endowments you'll never possess. |
| 00:57:14 |
Why do you say such things? |
| 00:57:25 |
You haven't fed enough. |
| 00:57:27 |
I can tell by your color. |
| 00:57:35 |
Come and see. |
| 00:57:53 |
Don't be angry with me. |
| 00:57:55 |
When I saw them, |
| 00:57:59 |
Drunk... |
| 00:58:01 |
...on brandywine. A thimbleful. |
| 00:58:12 |
You certainly have... |
| 00:58:14 |
...outdone yourself. |
| 00:58:17 |
I promise I'll get rid of the bodies. |
| 00:58:32 |
We forgive each other then? |
| 00:58:36 |
Yes. |
| 00:58:52 |
Absinthe? |
| 00:58:55 |
You've given them absinthe? |
| 00:58:58 |
No. |
| 00:58:59 |
Laudanum. |
| 00:59:02 |
Laudanum. |
| 00:59:03 |
Yes. |
| 00:59:04 |
It killed them, unfortunately. |
| 00:59:07 |
But it keeps the blood warm. |
| 00:59:13 |
You let me drink... |
| 00:59:16 |
...dead blood? |
| 00:59:18 |
You let me... |
| 00:59:20 |
...drink.... |
| 00:59:22 |
One lesson you taught me... |
| 00:59:25 |
...never drink from the dead. |
| 00:59:29 |
Put me in my coffin. |
| 00:59:31 |
Put me in my coffin. |
| 00:59:33 |
I'll put you in your coffin! |
| 00:59:40 |
My God! |
| 00:59:57 |
Lift me up! |
| 01:00:13 |
Good night, sweet prince. |
| 01:00:17 |
May flights of devils wing you to your rest. |
| 01:00:22 |
Should we burn him? |
| 01:00:23 |
Bury him? |
| 01:00:25 |
What would he have liked? |
| 01:00:31 |
The swamp? |
| 01:00:54 |
He belongs with those reptiles. |
| 01:00:58 |
He deserved to die. |
| 01:01:01 |
Then perhaps so do we, |
| 01:01:07 |
He was my maker. |
| 01:01:10 |
He gave me this life... |
| 01:01:12 |
...whatever it is. |
| 01:01:16 |
It shouldn't have been this way. |
| 01:01:19 |
I did it for us. |
| 01:01:21 |
So we could be free. |
| 01:01:29 |
You missed him? |
| 01:01:32 |
He was all I knew. |
| 01:01:33 |
It's as simple as that. |
| 01:01:36 |
We were like two orphans |
| 01:01:41 |
We booked a passage to Europe. |
| 01:01:44 |
Over the weeks, |
| 01:01:46 |
...she studied the myths and |
| 01:01:50 |
...obsessed with the search of |
| 01:02:07 |
Look who we forgot. |
| 01:02:13 |
Let's set them free. |
| 01:02:16 |
-Yes. |
| 01:02:22 |
It's the carriage. |
| 01:03:09 |
Listen, Louis... |
| 01:03:12 |
...there's life... |
| 01:03:14 |
...in these old hands still. |
| 01:03:18 |
Not quite furioso. |
| 01:03:23 |
Moderato... |
| 01:03:26 |
...cantabile, perhaps. |
| 01:03:28 |
How could it be? |
| 01:03:30 |
Ask the alligator. |
| 01:03:32 |
His blood helped. |
| 01:03:36 |
Then, on a diet of the blood of snakes... |
| 01:03:40 |
...toads... |
| 01:03:44 |
...and all the putrid life... |
| 01:03:46 |
...of the Mississippi... |
| 01:03:49 |
...slowly... |
| 01:03:52 |
...Lestat became something... |
| 01:03:54 |
...like himself again. |
| 01:04:01 |
You've been... |
| 01:04:03 |
...a very... |
| 01:04:05 |
...very... |
| 01:04:06 |
...naughty little girl. |
| 01:05:07 |
The ship is sailing without us! |
| 00:00:24 |
Though the fire seemed to spread... |
| 00:00:27 |
...I stood on that deck, |
| 00:00:31 |
...from the river like some monster, |
| 00:00:35 |
And all the while I thought... |
| 00:00:37 |
"Lestat..." |
| 00:00:39 |
"...we deserve your vengeance." |
| 00:00:42 |
"You gave me the 'dark gift'..." |
| 00:00:44 |
"...and I delivered you into the |
| 00:01:04 |
Though the ship was |
| 00:01:08 |
...a strange plague nonetheless |
| 00:01:13 |
Claudia and I alone seemed immune. |
| 00:01:17 |
We kept to ourselves... |
| 00:01:19 |
...pondering the mystery of each other. |
| 00:01:24 |
We reached the Mediterranean. |
| 00:01:26 |
I wanted those waters to be blue... |
| 00:01:30 |
...night-time waters. |
| 00:01:32 |
And how I suffered then... |
| 00:01:34 |
...straining to recall the color |
| 00:01:44 |
We searched village after village... |
| 00:01:46 |
...ruin after ruin... |
| 00:01:48 |
...country after country. |
| 00:01:50 |
And always we found nothing. |
| 00:01:54 |
I began to believe we were the only ones. |
| 00:01:59 |
There was a strange |
| 00:02:02 |
For what could the damned really |
| 00:02:07 |
You found nothing? |
| 00:02:09 |
Peasant rumors... |
| 00:02:10 |
...superstitions about garlic... |
| 00:02:13 |
...crosses... |
| 00:02:14 |
...the old stake in the heart. |
| 00:02:17 |
But one of our kind? |
| 00:02:19 |
Not a whisper. |
| 00:02:22 |
There are no vampires in Transylvania? |
| 00:02:26 |
Fictions, my friend. |
| 00:02:28 |
The vulgar fictions of a demented Irishman. |
| 00:02:32 |
Paris... |
| 00:02:33 |
...September, 1870. |
| 00:02:35 |
The city I'd always dreamed of. |
| 00:02:38 |
I was Creole, after all, |
| 00:02:43 |
A universe whole and entire unto herself. |
| 00:03:19 |
We were alive again. |
| 00:03:22 |
Just the two of us. |
| 00:03:23 |
And so euphoric was I |
| 00:03:40 |
So it was... |
| 00:03:41 |
...when I'd given up the |
| 00:03:44 |
...that a vampire found me. |
| 00:05:12 |
Buffoon! |
| 00:05:15 |
Santiago! |
| 00:05:24 |
I've searched the world for an |
| 00:05:44 |
Bring the petite beauty with you. |
| 00:05:47 |
No one will harm you. |
| 00:05:49 |
I won't allow it. |
| 00:05:53 |
And... |
| 00:05:55 |
...remember my name: |
| 00:05:58 |
Armand. |
| 00:06:07 |
Remember what I told you. |
| 00:06:09 |
They have different powers. |
| 00:06:25 |
He's the one, that's the vampire. |
| 00:06:29 |
Two lovers... |
| 00:06:30 |
...wandering down their violet way... |
| 00:06:34 |
...whose passionate embraces, |
| 00:06:37 |
...permit no meditations on decay... |
| 00:06:43 |
...until they find themselves... |
| 00:06:44 |
...within my reach! |
| 00:06:52 |
Vampires who pretend to be humans |
| 00:06:56 |
How avant-garde. |
| 00:06:58 |
The monk whose soul with |
| 00:07:02 |
...and spends his days... |
| 00:07:03 |
...in pious contemplation... |
| 00:07:08 |
...finds he will meet his Maker all too soon. |
| 00:07:13 |
For all his prayers gets no remuneration. |
| 00:07:21 |
The lesson endeth here... |
| 00:07:23 |
...and it is this: |
| 00:07:26 |
Each one of you, |
| 00:07:31 |
Each one must bend his |
| 00:07:36 |
But, hark! |
| 00:07:38 |
Methinks a mortal doth approach! |
| 00:07:44 |
What have we here? |
| 00:07:46 |
What beauty by my side? |
| 00:07:49 |
A rose in bloom, a shrinking violet? |
| 00:07:54 |
Perhaps she has a mind to be my bride. |
| 00:07:57 |
Perhaps my lesson has not ended yet! |
| 00:08:02 |
I don't want to die! |
| 00:08:03 |
But Death we are and have always been. |
| 00:08:06 |
Someone help me! |
| 00:08:08 |
Please! |
| 00:08:18 |
-What have I done? |
| 00:08:21 |
But I'm young! |
| 00:08:22 |
Death is no respecter of age! |
| 00:08:39 |
Just as this flesh is pink now... |
| 00:08:42 |
...so it will turn gray and wrinkle with age. |
| 00:08:46 |
Let me live! I don't care! |
| 00:08:47 |
Then why should you care if you die now? |
| 00:08:50 |
And suppose Death had a heart |
| 00:08:54 |
To whom would he turn his passion? |
| 00:08:57 |
Would you choose a person |
| 00:09:00 |
A person to suffer as you do? |
| 00:09:01 |
Monsieur Vampire, take me! |
| 00:09:03 |
I adore you! |
| 00:09:06 |
You wait your turn! |
| 00:09:09 |
Well.... |
| 00:09:11 |
Do you know what it means |
| 00:09:16 |
To become our bride? |
| 00:10:16 |
No pain. |
| 00:10:22 |
No pain. |
| 00:10:36 |
Monstrous. |
| 00:11:25 |
We live beneath. |
| 00:11:27 |
Let me show you. |
| 00:11:34 |
Monstrous. |
| 00:11:37 |
Yes. |
| 00:11:39 |
But very beautiful. |
| 00:12:01 |
Welcome to my home. |
| 00:12:17 |
Try him. |
| 00:12:41 |
Two vampires... |
| 00:12:43 |
...from the New World... |
| 00:12:46 |
...come to guide us into the new era... |
| 00:12:49 |
...as all we love slowly rots... |
| 00:12:52 |
...and fades away. |
| 00:12:55 |
Are you the leader of this group? |
| 00:12:58 |
If there were a leader... |
| 00:13:00 |
...I would be the one. |
| 00:13:02 |
-So you have the answers? |
| 00:13:07 |
What are we? |
| 00:13:10 |
Nothing... |
| 00:13:12 |
...if not vampires. |
| 00:13:17 |
Who made us what we are? |
| 00:13:20 |
Surely you know the one who made you? |
| 00:13:22 |
Yes, but the one who made him? |
| 00:13:24 |
The source... |
| 00:13:26 |
...of all this... |
| 00:13:28 |
...evil. |
| 00:13:31 |
I understand. |
| 00:13:34 |
I saw you in the theater. |
| 00:13:37 |
Your suffering... |
| 00:13:41 |
...your sympathy for that girl. |
| 00:13:45 |
You die... |
| 00:13:46 |
...when you kill. |
| 00:13:49 |
You feel you deserve to die |
| 00:13:54 |
But does that make you evil? |
| 00:13:57 |
Since you comprehend what you call |
| 00:14:01 |
...good? |
| 00:14:02 |
Then there is nothing? |
| 00:14:04 |
Perhaps. |
| 00:14:08 |
But perhaps... |
| 00:14:11 |
...this... |
| 00:14:13 |
...is the only real evil left. |
| 00:14:16 |
Then God does not exist? |
| 00:14:19 |
I know nothing of God. |
| 00:14:22 |
Or the Devil. |
| 00:14:24 |
I have never seen a vision, |
| 00:14:28 |
...that would damn or save my soul. |
| 00:14:32 |
As far as I know... |
| 00:14:34 |
...after 400 years... |
| 00:14:37 |
...I am the oldest... |
| 00:14:39 |
...living vampire... |
| 00:14:41 |
...in the world. |
| 00:14:44 |
Then it's as I always feared. |
| 00:14:54 |
You fear too much. |
| 00:14:58 |
So much you make me fear.... |
| 00:15:05 |
The one who made you... |
| 00:15:08 |
...should have told you this. |
| 00:15:11 |
The one who left the Old |
| 00:15:14 |
He knew nothing. |
| 00:15:15 |
Nor did he care. |
| 00:15:17 |
Knew? |
| 00:15:18 |
Come, beloved. |
| 00:15:20 |
It's time we were on our way. |
| 00:15:22 |
I'm hungry... |
| 00:15:24 |
...and the city awaits. |
| 00:15:27 |
The place was empty as we left. |
| 00:15:29 |
Silent as the grave. |
| 00:15:31 |
And as we blundered through it, |
| 00:15:35 |
"I have wronged Lestat." |
| 00:15:37 |
"I have hated him for the wrong reasons." |
| 00:15:39 |
How did you wrong him? |
| 00:15:43 |
You said a name. |
| 00:15:44 |
Yes, a name I don't care to say again. |
| 00:15:47 |
There is but one crime... |
| 00:15:49 |
...among us vampires here. |
| 00:15:52 |
It is the crime that means |
| 00:15:57 |
To kill your own kind. |
| 00:16:03 |
-Do you think I'd let them harm you? |
| 00:16:06 |
Danger holds you to me. |
| 00:16:08 |
Love holds you to me. |
| 00:16:10 |
-Love? |
| 00:16:11 |
You would leave me for Armand |
| 00:16:15 |
Never. |
| 00:16:16 |
He wants you as you want him. |
| 00:16:20 |
He wants you as a companion. |
| 00:16:22 |
He bides his time there. |
| 00:16:24 |
He finds it as dull and lifeless as we do. |
| 00:16:27 |
Perhaps. |
| 00:16:28 |
Do you know what his soul said to me |
| 00:16:33 |
"Let him go," he said. |
| 00:16:36 |
"Let him go." |
| 00:16:39 |
Is that what I should do? |
| 00:16:42 |
Let you go? |
| 00:16:45 |
My father... |
| 00:16:46 |
...my Louis... |
| 00:16:48 |
...who made me? |
| 00:16:51 |
It will be all right. |
| 00:16:54 |
You really believe that? |
| 00:17:04 |
The soldier... |
| 00:17:05 |
...on returning from the war... |
| 00:17:07 |
...thinks victory has enured |
| 00:17:11 |
...till Death comes by... |
| 00:17:13 |
...and chops him from his horse. |
| 00:17:21 |
I was waiting for you. |
| 00:17:25 |
Listen to me. |
| 00:17:29 |
Claudia is very dear to me. |
| 00:17:32 |
She's my daughter. |
| 00:17:33 |
Your lover. |
| 00:17:35 |
No, my beloved. |
| 00:17:37 |
My child. |
| 00:17:39 |
You say so. You're innocent. |
| 00:17:42 |
She's in danger, isn't she? |
| 00:17:45 |
-She is. |
| 00:17:48 |
I could give you reasons. |
| 00:17:52 |
Her silence. |
| 00:17:54 |
Her youth. |
| 00:17:57 |
It's forbidden to make one so young... |
| 00:18:00 |
...so helpless... |
| 00:18:02 |
...that cannot survive on its own. |
| 00:18:05 |
Then blame the one who made her. |
| 00:18:07 |
Did you kill this vampire |
| 00:18:09 |
Is that why you won't say his name? |
| 00:18:10 |
Santiago thinks you did. |
| 00:18:12 |
-We want no quarrel with him. |
| 00:18:16 |
If you want to save her... |
| 00:18:18 |
-...send her away! |
| 00:18:27 |
So soon? |
| 00:18:31 |
Without any of those answers |
| 00:18:34 |
You said there are none. |
| 00:18:35 |
But you asked the wrong questions. |
| 00:18:53 |
Do you know... |
| 00:18:55 |
...how few vampires... |
| 00:18:57 |
...have the stamina for immortality? |
| 00:19:02 |
How quickly they perish of their own will. |
| 00:19:08 |
The world... |
| 00:19:11 |
...changes. |
| 00:19:14 |
We do not. |
| 00:19:17 |
Therein lies the irony... |
| 00:19:19 |
...that finally kills us. |
| 00:19:21 |
I need you to make contact with this age. |
| 00:19:25 |
Me? |
| 00:19:27 |
Don't you see? |
| 00:19:30 |
I'm not the spirit of any age. |
| 00:19:33 |
I'm at odds with everything. |
| 00:19:35 |
I always have been. |
| 00:19:38 |
That is the very spirit of your age. |
| 00:19:42 |
The heart of it. |
| 00:19:45 |
Your fall... |
| 00:19:47 |
...from grace... |
| 00:19:49 |
...has been the fall of a century. |
| 00:19:53 |
But the vampires in the theater? |
| 00:19:56 |
Decadent... |
| 00:19:58 |
...useless. |
| 00:20:01 |
They can't reflect anything. |
| 00:20:04 |
But... |
| 00:20:05 |
...you do. |
| 00:20:09 |
You reflect... |
| 00:20:10 |
...its broken heart. |
| 00:20:24 |
A vampire... |
| 00:20:27 |
...with a human soul. |
| 00:20:30 |
An immortal with a mortal's passion. |
| 00:20:35 |
You... |
| 00:20:37 |
...are... |
| 00:20:39 |
...beautiful, my friend. |
| 00:20:43 |
Lestat must have wept when he made you. |
| 00:20:49 |
You knew Lestat? |
| 00:20:54 |
Yes. |
| 00:20:56 |
I knew him. |
| 00:20:59 |
Knew him well enough |
| 00:21:05 |
I felt a kind of peace at last. |
| 00:21:08 |
I had found the teacher which Lestat |
| 00:21:13 |
I knew knowledge would |
| 00:21:16 |
It would pass through him |
| 00:21:34 |
Madeleine... |
| 00:21:36 |
...Louis is shy. |
| 00:21:53 |
Drink. |
| 00:21:56 |
Do it. |
| 00:21:57 |
Because I cannot do it. |
| 00:22:00 |
-You saw to that when you made me. |
| 00:22:06 |
I have. |
| 00:22:07 |
You have found your new companion! |
| 00:22:11 |
How do we seem to you? |
| 00:22:14 |
Do you find us beautiful? |
| 00:22:16 |
Magical? |
| 00:22:18 |
Our white skin, our fierce eyes? |
| 00:22:23 |
Your evil is that you cannot be evil! |
| 00:22:26 |
And I shall suffer for it no longer! |
| 00:22:28 |
Don't make me do this! I cannot! |
| 00:22:31 |
Yet, you could do it to me. |
| 00:22:33 |
Snatching me from my mother's hands, |
| 00:22:39 |
And now you weep! |
| 00:22:41 |
I haven't tears enough |
| 00:22:44 |
You give her to me, Louis! |
| 00:22:46 |
Do this before you leave me! |
| 00:22:50 |
Oh, God! |
| 00:22:52 |
I love you still! |
| 00:22:54 |
That's the torment of it! |
| 00:22:57 |
Who'll care for me, my love... |
| 00:23:00 |
...my dark angel, when you are gone? |
| 00:23:09 |
What do you think she is, Madeleine? |
| 00:23:13 |
A doll? |
| 00:23:17 |
A child who cannot die. |
| 00:23:20 |
And the child who did die? |
| 00:23:24 |
My daughter. |
| 00:24:20 |
What's happening to her? |
| 00:24:22 |
She's dying. |
| 00:24:24 |
It happened to you too... |
| 00:24:26 |
...only you were too young to remember. |
| 00:24:31 |
But if she dies? |
| 00:24:33 |
It's only mortal death. |
| 00:24:39 |
Bear me no ill will, my love. |
| 00:24:44 |
We are now even. |
| 00:24:47 |
What do you mean? |
| 00:24:50 |
What died in that room |
| 00:24:57 |
What has died is the... |
| 00:25:00 |
...last breath in me... |
| 00:25:02 |
...that was human. |
| 00:25:08 |
Yes, Father. |
| 00:25:11 |
At last we are even. |
| 00:25:18 |
It's time for justice, little one. |
| 00:25:37 |
Get me Armand. |
| 00:25:40 |
Death for the others. |
| 00:25:43 |
For you... |
| 00:25:44 |
...eternity in a box. |
| 00:25:47 |
Walled in a dungeon. |
| 00:25:49 |
Your only company will be your screams. |
| 00:25:53 |
Perhaps it will take centuries. |
| 00:25:56 |
Take them! |
| 00:27:10 |
Pleasant dreams. |
| 00:27:14 |
No! No! |
| 00:27:16 |
Help! |
| 00:27:52 |
Wake up! |
| 00:28:58 |
Where's Claudia? |
| 00:29:00 |
Claudia. I cannot help her. |
| 00:29:03 |
-Where's Claudia? |
| 00:29:07 |
I will only risk losing you! |
| 00:29:11 |
Don't! |
| 00:30:56 |
Come, Louis. |
| 00:30:58 |
Not here. |
| 00:31:08 |
So a vampire can cry? |
| 00:31:12 |
Once... |
| 00:31:13 |
...maybe twice, in eternity. |
| 00:31:17 |
And maybe it was to quench those tears |
| 00:32:16 |
Stop him! It's burning! |
| 00:32:18 |
Get him! Stop him! |
| 00:34:20 |
You didn't even warn them, did you? |
| 00:34:24 |
No. |
| 00:34:27 |
And you knew what I would do. |
| 00:34:31 |
I knew. |
| 00:34:32 |
I rescued you, didn't I? |
| 00:34:35 |
From the terrible dawn. |
| 00:34:41 |
You were their leader. They trusted you. |
| 00:34:43 |
No. |
| 00:34:45 |
You made me see their failings, Louis. |
| 00:34:49 |
They were... |
| 00:34:50 |
...doomed, stuck in their decadent time. |
| 00:34:54 |
They had forgotten the first lesson... |
| 00:34:57 |
...that we must be powerful... |
| 00:34:59 |
...beautiful... |
| 00:35:00 |
...and without regret. |
| 00:35:03 |
You can teach me this? |
| 00:35:05 |
Yes. |
| 00:35:06 |
To be without regret? |
| 00:35:10 |
Then, what a pair we could make. |
| 00:35:15 |
But what if it's a lesson |
| 00:35:20 |
What? |
| 00:35:21 |
What if all I have is my suffering? |
| 00:35:24 |
My regret? |
| 00:35:27 |
Don't you want to lose it? |
| 00:35:29 |
So you can have that too? |
| 00:35:32 |
The heart that mourns her... |
| 00:35:34 |
...whom you burnt to a cinder? |
| 00:35:36 |
I swear I didn't-- |
| 00:35:38 |
But I know you did. |
| 00:35:41 |
I know... |
| 00:35:43 |
...you... |
| 00:35:45 |
...regret nothing. |
| 00:35:48 |
You feel... |
| 00:35:51 |
...nothing. |
| 00:35:54 |
If that's all I have left to learn... |
| 00:35:58 |
...I can do that on my own. |
| 00:36:09 |
I will die. |
| 00:36:11 |
No. |
| 00:36:12 |
You are dead. |
| 00:36:13 |
And you want me to quicken you |
| 00:36:18 |
And as much as your invitation |
| 00:36:23 |
...I must regretfully... |
| 00:36:25 |
...decline. |
| 00:36:38 |
For years I wandered: |
| 00:36:41 |
Italy, Greece... |
| 00:36:43 |
...all the ancient lands. |
| 00:36:45 |
But the world was a tomb to me... |
| 00:36:48 |
...a graveyard full of broken statues. |
| 00:36:51 |
And each of those statues |
| 00:37:00 |
Then, out of curiosity... |
| 00:37:02 |
...boredom, who knows what... |
| 00:37:04 |
...I left the Old World... |
| 00:37:06 |
...and came back to my America. |
| 00:37:11 |
And there a mechanical wonder |
| 00:37:15 |
...for the first time... |
| 00:37:17 |
...in 200 years. |
| 00:37:20 |
And what sunrises! |
| 00:37:22 |
Seen as the human eye |
| 00:37:26 |
Silver at first... |
| 00:37:28 |
...then, as the years progressed, |
| 00:37:31 |
...red... |
| 00:37:33 |
...and my long-lost blue. |
| 00:37:39 |
In the spring of 1988, |
| 00:37:43 |
And as soon as I smelled the air, |
| 00:37:48 |
It was rich... |
| 00:37:49 |
...almost sweet... |
| 00:37:51 |
...like the fragrance of jasmine |
| 00:37:57 |
I walked the streets savoring |
| 00:38:06 |
And then on Prytania Street... |
| 00:38:08 |
...only blocks from the |
| 00:38:11 |
...I caught the scent of death. |
| 00:38:14 |
And it wasn't coming from the graves. |
| 00:38:18 |
The scent grew stronger as I walked. |
| 00:38:21 |
Old death. |
| 00:38:22 |
A scent too faint for mortals to detect. |
| 00:39:53 |
I'm so glad you are here! |
| 00:39:56 |
I've dreamed... |
| 00:39:58 |
...of this moment. |
| 00:40:02 |
She never should have been one of... |
| 00:40:05 |
...us. |
| 00:40:06 |
That's all past, Lestat. |
| 00:40:13 |
Past. |
| 00:40:36 |
Still beautiful, Louis. |
| 00:40:41 |
You always were the strong one. |
| 00:40:48 |
Don't be frightened. |
| 00:40:53 |
I mean you no harm. |
| 00:40:58 |
You've come home to me then? |
| 00:41:05 |
You remember how I was? |
| 00:41:09 |
The vampire... |
| 00:41:11 |
...that I was? |
| 00:41:14 |
Yes, I remember. |
| 00:41:21 |
No one... |
| 00:41:23 |
...could refuse me... |
| 00:41:26 |
...not even you. |
| 00:41:29 |
I tried. |
| 00:41:31 |
Yes, you tried. |
| 00:41:34 |
And the more you tried... |
| 00:41:40 |
...the more I wanted you. |
| 00:41:51 |
I can't bear it. |
| 00:41:55 |
Such lights... |
| 00:41:58 |
...and that noise! |
| 00:42:01 |
They make the night brighter than the day. |
| 00:42:12 |
It's false light. |
| 00:42:14 |
It can't harm you. |
| 00:42:27 |
If you stay with me, Louis... |
| 00:42:31 |
...I could venture out again. |
| 00:42:35 |
Become the old Lestat. |
| 00:42:39 |
I must leave now. |
| 00:43:07 |
Whatever happened to Lestat, |
| 00:43:11 |
I go on... |
| 00:43:13 |
...night after night. |
| 00:43:15 |
I feed on those who cross my path. |
| 00:43:20 |
But all my passion went |
| 00:43:26 |
I'm a spirit of preternatural flesh. |
| 00:43:30 |
Detached. |
| 00:43:32 |
Unchangeable. |
| 00:43:36 |
Empty. |
| 00:43:38 |
Empty? |
| 00:43:40 |
That's it? |
| 00:43:43 |
No, it can't end like that. |
| 00:43:47 |
But it has. |
| 00:43:48 |
There's no more to tell. |
| 00:43:51 |
There must be more to tell. You don't |
| 00:43:56 |
What I wouldn't give to be like you, |
| 00:43:59 |
...to have seen the things you have seen. |
| 00:44:02 |
You haven't been listening. |
| 00:44:03 |
I have been listening. |
| 00:44:06 |
-It's amazing. |
| 00:44:08 |
Give it to others. Learn what you can. |
| 00:44:11 |
There's only one way I'll truly learn |
| 00:44:14 |
You brought me here for a reason. |
| 00:44:17 |
Didn't you? |
| 00:44:18 |
What reason would that be? |
| 00:44:20 |
You want a companion. You want a link |
| 00:44:24 |
Take me. That's what I want. |
| 00:44:26 |
-I refuse to let it end like this. |
| 00:44:30 |
You haven't failed. |
| 00:44:36 |
Do you like this? |
| 00:44:38 |
Do you like being food for the immortals? |
| 00:44:42 |
Do you like dying? |
| 00:44:43 |
Stop! |
| 00:45:49 |
1791 was the year it happened. |
| 00:45:52 |
I was 24. Younger than you are now. |
| 00:45:55 |
But times were different then. |
| 00:45:58 |
The master of a large plantation, |
| 00:46:03 |
I had lost my wife in childbirth. |
| 00:46:06 |
Someone change my shorts. |
| 00:46:08 |
She and the infant had been |
| 00:46:11 |
It's good stuff. |
| 00:46:11 |
I would've been happy to join them. |
| 00:46:13 |
Good stuff. |
| 00:46:18 |
I assume I need no introduction. |
| 00:46:34 |
I feel better already. |
| 00:46:40 |
Most of all, I longed for death. |
| 00:46:43 |
I invited it. |
| 00:46:46 |
A release from the pain of living. |
| 00:46:52 |
Still whining. |
| 00:46:56 |
Heard enough? |
| 00:46:58 |
I've had to listen to that for centuries. |
| 00:47:02 |
Don't be afraid. |
| 00:47:06 |
I'm going to give you the choice... |
| 00:47:09 |
...I never had. |
