AMC's Interview with the Vampire Season 1 Deep Dive: Antiheroes and The Vampire Lestat

Vampire Insider: An AMC Anne Rice's Immortal Universe After Show - A podcast by Vampire Insider

Categories:

In this episode, the Vampire Insider team dig even deeper into Lestat's character from the book The Vampire Lestat as well as the show.   They chat a bit about the role of the antihero in the post me too universe, how the decision to make IWTV more representational has created a far more complex story especially considering the tropes the writers used around DV and SA, and they share thoughts from fans who responded on twitter to the question: What do you like about Lestat.  He's so very good at being so very bad, and we all love a good antihero, but in the end the Vampire Insiders come way wondering: Is show Lestat an antihero or is he actually a villain?   The youtube video we reference in this episode is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W3wncm9s2AM Thanks for listening each week and if you do like us -- please share us with a friend.
