I had seen the movie as a child and kind of walked into Interview blindly. At first it was hard to follow in a grammatical sense, as it is being played out as an Interview(who would have guessed) but written in 3rd person. Was very long drawn at some points as to Louis' depression. The end however was quick almost unsuspecting. Its questionable weather it queer baiting but Lestat does seem to be the epitome of Pansexual. I dont remember much of claudia from the movie except her tantrum amd death. Exploring her psychi through louis eyes was interesting but i would have like her POV. However as she becomes mentally an adult her relationship with louis becomes more uncomfortable. Another creator/influencer described the novrl queer toxic relationship which would best describe lestats treatment of louis.
