Interview with the Vampire (1994)
Interview with the Vampire is a compelling exploration of immortality, guilt, and human nature. The film unravels the centuries-long life of Louis de Pointe du Lac (Brad Pitt), a reluctant vampire, as he recounts his tale to a modern-day journalist (Christian Slater). Turned into a vampire by the charismatic yet ruthless Lestat de Lioncourt (Tom Cruise), Louis grapples with his new existence. Claudia (Kirsten Dunst), a child turned into a vampire, adds another layer of complexity to their unconventional family dynamic. This Gothic horror-drama, based on Anne Rice's popular novel, earned two Academy Award nominations and remains an iconic entry in the vampire genre.
