Grace had money on her wedding dress bc its it is a gesture of good luck as well to financially support the couple and their honeymoon. Male guests line up in front of the bride to pin money on her dress before dancing with her, while female guests pin money on the groom before dancing with him. Its a practice done in many cultures, though I've only seen it at an Italian and Southern black wedding. I truly disliked Louis' mum for blaming him for Paul's death. She knew that Paul had mental issues bc they had to put him in an asylum before. And they wanted to do it again, but Louis was the one to say no, bc the asylum made him worse. But the fact that she sat there in Louis' house being fully financially supported by him, and then treated him like shite and blamed him for something that he didn't do, made my blood boil.

This is why the TV show is better than the original movie. Yes, they changed a great deal, but through those changes we are privy to the eloquence of Rice's writing. The emotional depths that her work stirs. I read the books when I was around your age, and this version reignited the same feelings I felt when I read it so long ago. They are lovers. The TV show functions so much better than the film because it doesn't cover up the reality of the narrative. And we get to see and hear Louis and Lestat in all their multi-epoch-living, intricate, romantic horribleness only vampires can sustain. You're in for a treat, my friend.

Louis lives in Dubai because the UAE has the strictest privacy laws on planet earth, and a modern vampire in the internet age would need an unbelievable level of privacy. You're the most hilarious reactor, especially that scream @20:47

THIS SHOW has the biggest chokehold on me. Honestly best ive seen 2022, 2023 and so far 2024 (imo)

Oh yeah, im so excited to follow your journey with the show, is messy, romantic, unhinged and poetic. plays with our sense of ​​morality, because it's literally a love story between monsters, so it won't be clean! toxicity is vampire love language lol

Love your reactions Luke. I started watching you because of your reactions to Heartstopper. I'm now subscribed and watch more of your reactions. The scene Lestat putting his fist through the priest head... it was awesome. Honestly, im an old gay man and you on my tv screen makes me feel like I actually have company. Your a good person Luke

Strap in Luke. You're in for a bumpy ride!😅

I am so excited for you to see this series. It's so good and very layered!!

There's lots of different Vampire lore that has built up over the literal centuries. You can't assume anything because each story & piece of media uses different lore & sometimes makes up new stuff. Im just glad you didnt - yet compare this to Twilight like Ive seen some reactors do. Anne Rice, even with these changes and Myer aren't even in the same Hemisphere lol. And @edilli is %100 right the changes they made to the series are so much better then the book

So glad to see that you're already invested in these characters and their story! Hope you enjoy the twists and turns of the journey ahead too!

I'm glad you chose this show, it's so great and still unknown to most :( Found your channel because of it and had a blast with your reaction! Looking forward to the other episodes

I loved your reaction, this show is a wild ride!! I'm sat for the rest

Yay. Great reaction 🤍

Luke, I *love* this series! 🧛‍♀ The details are shifted from the source material (which I also love) but this rendition should speak louder to a contemporary audience. ෴ Alan Taylor directed this introductory episode.

Love seeing how much you enjoyed it!!!! Can’t wait to see your reaction to the rest of the season!

Such a fun reaction! I hope you revisit this show for season 2 Luke! 🧛‍♂✨

So glad you reacted to this! I feel like it's a gem that's often overlooked, loved your reaction so subscribed. Look forward to checking out what else you have!

Love Sam Reid! Check his performance in The Newsreader series.

The “Vampire Chronicles” by Anne Rice are some of my favorite books. “Interview With The Vampire” is of course the first book and you really need to read it”The Vampire Lestat” to really understand the story.. Please be sure to stay tuned for Season 2 !!! P.S. I thought I would mention I read the book the first time as a young man in my 20’s in the early 1980’s… Please, please, the old guy jokes..

Loved your reaction! Glad you enjoyed this!! Yes it is captivating!!

Mother Du Lac judges her son's profession but isn't too Christian to enjoy living off the gains.

❤️ nice reaction

“Is he running from something?” People who’ve read the books: 👀👀

This whole show is just utter chaos

I would like to recommend a very good film for you to watch, the name is "The Normal Heart". I don't know if you've seen it but this film is exciting and very interesting. It talks about the lives of queer people in the 80s in NY at the beginning of the AIDS crisis and talks a little more about this discovery and the struggle of these people to be seen by the government that at the time ignored the emergency situation

LOLz to yer scream.

Armand was a young vampire. Canonically, barely 16yo when he was turned. So you see, he might be protective. Of child vampires.

the show is pretty good except for maybe episode 5

👍🏿

Wishing you will react to some bl series in the future, especially this bl series called gaya sa pelikula, its a really good series with heavy themes that im sure youre gonna like and its completely free in youtube so its very easy to watch.

You laid everything out perfectly. Lestat isolated Louis and preyed on him. I believe that Lestat made Paul walk off that roof. Then he killed Lily, the two people he was closest to.

I think you're being very much infantilizing to paul
