Before its release, fans like myself were outraged that Holywood cast Tom as Lestat. Even the great Anne Rice rolled her eyes at the idea. Tom nailed it. He embodied the great vampire with such grace and skill that he silenced all naysayers. And this was the movie that made Brad Pit a superstar and heartthrob, even though he hated doing the film. Brad tried everything he could to get out of the contract. I wonder how he feels today. You guys rock! Thanks for taking us there.
I wish Pitt would have gotten out of the contract. He's the only negative of the film (and a big one at that). Cruise was genuinely riveting as Lestat. When contrasted with Pitt, Cruise's performance only becomes more brilliant and accentuated. I wish someone was cast who could've matched Cruise----thus accentuating his performance for all of the right reasons.
@@ontologicallysteve7765 I feel exactly the opposite. All I see is Tom Cruise in a terrible blond wig! Johnny Depp would have been a better Lestat in my opinion.
Everyone hates the idea of certain actors playing certain roles, but more times than not, the actors deliver. People hated the thought of Heath Ledger as the Joker, and he nailed it. Jerry Weintraub didn't like Pat Morita being cast as Mr. Miyagi and he nailed it. These are just a few examples.
@@ontologicallysteve7765 ya, actually I read that Anne Rice wrote that character purposely for Johnny Depp. It was interesting to find that out. I can totally see Johnny playing that character. Too bad River died, he was supposed to play the interviewer but Christian Slater took it over. That would have been some great eye candy for sure! Johnny, River and Brad! : )
@@mompreneurof6 Pretty sure that she wrote Lestat with a younger Rutger Hauer in mind
I waited 5 hours to get Queen of the Damned signed by Anne Rice…. She was so so nice and just a lovely lady❤️
I grew up right down the road from Destrehan Plantation where they filmed several scenes.There is a church near by that has a massive parking lot. The film crew rented the parking lot for all the cast trailers etc. Tom Cruise was routinely seen driving a BMW from the parking lot to the plantation. He was friendly and waved at fans. The plantation is right on the Mississippi river and my friends a I would sit on the levee and watch the filming. It was great.
RIP Anne Rice. Sad to hear of her passing today. 🖤
❤
Jessica should have hordes of artists clamoring to paint her portrait. Such a beauty!
I happen to watch this now after the news of Anne Rice (RIP). You better go back and buy that book now! Great video as always, and Jessica your hair looks stunning dark with frosted ends!
Huge Anne Rice fan,RIP! Waited on line for hours for her to autograph my book interview with a vampire! It was an honor to meet her! Thank you both for all you do! Love this!
Sadly... The Beautiful and Talented Ann Rice passed from our world to the next on Dec. 11th. 2021. :(
I would have LOVED to have met her and talked to her. She wrote some of THE BEST Horror Novels ever!
True story!! Its the first movie me and wife first watched together on a blind date.. Thanks Grimms!!
Hah, date, vampires, wedding, kids, belly fat , couch,,, Life sux :)) Blame vampires.
Just found this !! I'm a HUGE Anne Rice Fan 🖤🦇🖤 I met her once at Sacramento Ca Tower Records Books for a signing, 1994. She asked if I had read The Mayfair Witches, since my name is Angelique and i told her yes I loved it !!! Then she asked if I used the the accent on the é = Angélique and i said no. And she said I should 🖤🖤🖤 She said 8 was the first Angélique she had met in a long time. And we chatted for a little while. I told her I had lent her books out to my friends that's why I only had the Ramses the Damned with me. She was so wonderful to chat with , such a dream come true to meet her 🖤🦇🖤🦇🖤🦇Thank you for this AMAZING video !! Love seeing the Interview w the Vampire movie locations , LaFayette Cemetery #1, the street of New Orleans and the Garden District Bookstore 🖤🦇🖤🦇🖤🦇Happy Halloween🖤🎃🖤🎃🖤🎃🖤🖤🦇🖤🦇🖤🦇🖤
You two are so lucky to have each other! What a great fit. Love your show! Happy Halloween!
"Louie, Louie, always WHINING!" Can't cross the GG bridge without thinking of that. Awesome job! I don't know if I'll ever get all the way across to New Orleans. Love everywhere you went. Thank you! (And yes, those guys had a hard time talking around those teeth they had to wear.) LOL! xoxo
And the lesat looks at slater and says “I’m going to give you the choice, I never had”. He then smiles and chuckles a bit and turns up the radio which is playing Guns N Roses’ cover of Sympathy for the Devil (a song that slash has stated the recording of it broke up the band).
BTW: that song is the only non classical song on the soundtrack. I bought the soundtrack and was very disappointed that Claudia’s “play something more somber” song is not on it, though it’s a real classical piano piece and is far longer and more complex then what it played in the film.
@@CamaroAmx Exactly! Sympathy for the Devil is an amazing song and was perfect, IMO. xoxo
Jessica with the dark hair and blue eyes.... Simply Ravishing!!❣️💕💕
Agreed!
The dark hair really shows off her beautiful bone structure. What a woman!
She strikes me as someone who would collect antique daggers, that would be so cool if she did.
Man i loved this episode, one of my most favourite movies ever.
Wonderful!!!🌊🧜♀️🌜❤
Jessica is flawless!!!! And... looooove that dress!! She reminds me of Patricia Arquette. She’s a definite star. Love your videos you two rock. 🤟🏻
"Oak Alley Plantation is an old plantation about an hour away from New Orleans" Or 20 minutes depending on how you drive.
Yes, it’s Vacherie Louisiana. My husband proposed to me in the garden.
Great channel. You all put a lot of time into your videos. Greatly appreciated.
Thank you...we appreciate you.
I love how Jessica dressed up for this video definitely goes well with the theme of the location of the Interview With A Vampire
I guess Anne was still alive when y’all made this…
I met my first girlfriend in 1996 at an Anne Rice book signing party in Jackson, MS. She was wearing a Marilyn Manson shirt; it was love at first sight. Used to spend lots of time in NOLA, but never made it to Anne or Trent’s house. Had friends that did, when they lived there; always wanted to see it for myself. Thanks for guiding the virtual experience here.
My video introduction to your channel had Jessica with neon yellow and green hair, but she’s a total babe with dark hair. Wow!
Charming couple, insightful videos; I’m sure we’ll meet again. ✌🏻
I met a young woman in Australia on an Anne Rice website in 2004 and we talked off and on and her name at the time was Tamika Cheri Morrison. In August of 2008, her mother died of cancer and I invited Tam to visit and prove to her there are no vampires in New Orleans.. those in the Dungeon bar are wannabes for tourists. I paid for her airfare and one week at the Canal Street hotel. No, I didn't do this for her affections.... I was a gentleman.
We never went to the Oak Valley plantation but we walked the Quarter up and down. The producers, director, and Anne Rice wanted all the IWTV cemetery scenes filmed in St.Louis #1 but filming there was outlawed because of damage done to graves by the cast/crew of Easy Rider in the early 70s.
Also.. that was a toad you held... not a frog.
So, I spend a week with this Aussie gurl proving no vampires in New Orleans when we see this home after sunset....owned by Nic Cage. He had it up for sale for 5 million.... I had never believed in ghosts... now? I don't know... I saw them with my naked eye... captured on Tam's camera... three people... that's all I will say. I just don't know.... I saw what I saw... I'll never go there ever again.

I was in the French Quarter for several nights of filming. Straingly enough they covered much of the original porch posts with wide round columns. They covered the streets with dirt and ran gas to all the street lights. They also put a fake porch on the house that burned to protect the actual building. I was also in Jackson Square when they filmed that seen you mentioned. Somewhere I have pictures packed away. I watched Interview again last night. I mentioned they covered a lot of the cast iron posts in the quarter with round columns. They used the same round columns on the front of the old house that Lewis finds Lastat when he returns back to NOLA
I swear that's the same mansion I saw in a Bette Davis movie - maybe Hush Hush Sweet Charlotte.
Pretty cool to see where the Drop Dead Undead was filmed.
I had the best time ever in Nola years ago during Halloween - Kiss did an amazing concert in the park. Full moon & all. 👍 My host had family in one of those closed off graveyards & we were able to go inside. Cemeteries were closed after Katrina due to looting. Nola is an amazing place. We both cried when we had to head back home.
Ha! Anne Rice had a fake Jazz Funeral.
At 3:13 is an excellent cinematography moment. Also, right at 3:25 it’s as if we’re able to see Jessica through your eyes Michael, Grimm, the tone set with the music. 💙💗❤️🔥📹 I have a photographer’s eye (filming) and a romantic. If you take an isolate this moment, I think it can be used in another story card or music video for a birthday gift.
Awesome video. Anne Rice is a legend. Thanx for sharing.
This takes me back! I lived down there before Hurricane Katrina so much has changed. Beautiful architecture.
I have all 3 of the first Vampire books, 1st printings, signed by Anne. Plus one other book. I had her sign them in the 90's at a bookshop in Corte Madera, CA.
At the time, I had long, straight, blonde hair, down to my assy. I was (and still am) muscular (sort of a Fabio lookalike). I discovered that night, that I was Anne's "type". There was definite chemistry. Kinda glad my girlfriend couldn't make it.
wroñg yíu girfrod béçom real vampier futee
I love this movie and Lestat (Tom Cruise) is my favourite vampire. Awesome.
I was 19 when this movie came out, the following summer I had to go to San Fransico to take my boards for Dental Assisting....I made my Dad drive around untill we found the building that Louie and Christian Slater are "in" at the beginning of the movie. Took us a long time but we did find it on Golden Gate. Lol
"Little goul" - I always though he was saying "little girl"./Really appreciate it when your wife dresses up, it adds to ambience.
Oak Alley is gorgeous wow. The trees are so incredible.
I’m getting chills. This is so cool.
Cougar love 😂
I love the dolls and Claudia was vicious. I have a love-hate relationship with her because I hate bratty children but I also understand her frustration at not being able to grow up.
Love that abandoned house.
Anne’s former house😍😍🖤🖤
Annne also used to attend the New Orleans vampire balls but she has not been able to in the last few years.
I was very fortunate to have met her in the 90s.
The funeral staging is why when I met her everyone thought she was going to arrive in a coffin but she did not she just walked in.
Fantastic video guys love the intro
Love interview with a vampire one of my all-time favorite movies
Not only does the house scream VAMPIRE, it also scream "give me some of that Michael and Jessica love!"❤
I love their energy! These people know how to give a tour because they LOVE what they're doing. They don't even need to try. They just are cool people to tour a city with.
I loved it! Michael and Jessica, you two are so much fun to watch together! Thank you for another awesome tour!
Great video! Huge Anne Rice fan, her vampires are so beautiful and well written! Love those old historical buildings and cemeteries down in New Orleans and Jessica looks gothically lovely and so kind to lil frogs and other creatures ❤
As both a Witchcraft and Hoodoo /Rootwork /Conjure practitioner I can appreciate the value of your collections. I often collect things as you do when I travel.
Some years ago... My Ex and her sisters and her son and daughter all went to New Orleans for a wedding, and they stayed at a hotel on Burban Street.
The hotel was two or three levels and had a MASSIVE inner courtyard with a fountain in the middle. One of my now ex sisters-in-laws took a picture of the soft lite courtyard, and when the pic got developed... There were SO MANY "Ghost Faces" and "Orbs" in the photo! I remember counting no less then like thirteen or fifteen "Ghost Faces and/or Orbs" that are VERY Noticeable!
New Orleans has SO MANY Ghost Stories and other "Haunting" stories to it's history! Just SO FREAKIN' COOL!
i love Jessica's darker hair.
I love how you guys go everywhere together doing videos 😊 a beautiful couple and best of luck in your new venture. Love from Ireland 💚
One of my top 10 fav movies ever. Thanks for doing this one!!! Too bad Brad Pitt hated that movie.
I know right I can't believe he hated this movie I think his acting was amazing and also the story line 😭
Did you know the reason brooms are associated with witches is because they would sweep up before performing a healing ceremony
Yes! We use them in magick..❤🌜🧜♀️🌊🌛

@@janetlieb2507 I don't know about know but back then that's what they were used for I know Wiccan today is a little different than it was in the past
yes plus broom r9de bewitçh hary pter
Anne rice has always been my favorite writer. Love all the vampie chronicles. Just read the vampire lestat again, cause it's been too long. Love the channel and both of you guy's. Y'all are awesome
Anne Rice's vampires are among my favorite bloodsuckers in literature and movies.
Omg interviw with the vampire is my favorite vampire movie. Thank you for this video ahhhhhhhhh!
could you imagine how far those roots extend out?? just beautiful
Not only did I rewatch, but I shared it with a friend who had never seen it! Thank you for this video. I showed it to my friend as well! Great film!
Loved this. Truly fascinating. The research you must do to find out these details must take a lot of time and effort. Not too mention patience. It must be a labour of love because that passion shows in your vids. Thank you for this and taking us along on your adventures. Oh I nearly forgot, the opening and closing credits were simply delightful.
I had the pleasure of attending one of Anne Rice Halloween Balls, some years back. Complete with vampire wedding. Truly an amazing experience!
Jessica that is such a beautiful dress!& you of corse, Nicely done and edited! Awesome job!
Such beautiful locations to film and one of my favourite cities.
Love New Orleans beautiful city
this is the best ever. I miss Anne Rice's vampires. YOu two brought it back to life again! thanks so much.
This is one of my most favorite movie of all times. I am so glad that y'all did this video on the filming locations!
I used to deliver Anne Rice water to that house...about 22 years ago...she had 2 huge dogs at the time....I would have to deal with her publicist and I remember telling him she writes about vampires but she keeps werewolves...very nice lady gave me two autographed pictures for my then wife. I am remarried now and live in Texas...watching this made me so homesick.
This video brings back great memories of my trip to New Orleans last year. Was such a fan girl finding her home in the Garden District, it’s such a beautiful place. I was on the trail of finding the settings for The Witching Hour. If you get a chance to go back and see Cemetery No 1 definitely do it, it’s fascinating to wander in.
This is great. My daughter lives just outside of the garden district in New Orleans. I’ve been in the Lafayette cemetery and to the book store. I never get tired of visiting that area when I visit my daughter. So much history.
"This place is cursed, damned, and yes your master is the devil!"
I was working at a Barnes and Noble when Memnoch came out. I was lucky to get ny hands kn an advanced booksellers copy about a month before it was released.
I also still have my copy if Interview, which was gifted to me by my theatre teacher in High School. It was the first book i ever read (i had read bits and pieces of stuff for school, but that was it).
And when the Interview film came out i got to see it two days early since i was working at an AMC and they would show films early to preview the print and make sure they were put together properly before release night.
Wow! Just Wow! Thank you SO much for sharing this vlog! I think I have to go watch this movie again now!❤
A scenne of Red dead redemption 2 was filmed in that house.😁
Stumbled on your channel by accident, great video and your so lucky to go round the locations. Love IWTV so much RIP Anne xx
one of my favorite stories, and film... wonderful job M&J, thanks for taking us along
What a beautiful dress! Y’all have me hooked...my husband and I do some same thing when we travel...go see spots from favorite movies or favorite musicians/famous people. On the list so far: Hunter S. Thompson home and fav restaurant, Muddy Water’s hometown, Kurt Cobain’s home, The Conjuring home and Bathsheeba’s graveyard, the Mystic Pizza Pizzaria, Graceland, Bruce and Brandon Lee’s gravesite, and Bob Marley’s birthplace and mausoleum.
So many more places we wanna see...thanks for the inspiration.
Very interesting and entertaining. Looks like you two had a blast. I've only visited New Orleans once back in 2010, and this makes me pine for it again. I am glad that I got to visit Oak Alley during that trip. Call it one of my bucket list items.
A couple of corrections: I'm not sure where Anne wrote Interview With The Vampire (she might have still been living in San Francisco), but she did not move into Rosegate at 1239 1st Street until the 90s. I do know that she used that house as the inspiration and pretty much the setting for the Mayfair Manor.
I think the "poodle killing" scene may have been filmed at another plantation, possibly Destrehan, as it is mentioned among the many filming locations. A couple clues that lend to this are the difference in size of the first floor galleries in the background, which appear much lower than those at Oak Alley. Also, it is clear that the same galleries do not wrap completely around the house like Oak Alley's.
I love this episode! Bucket list place to visit.
just came across your videos and i love the ones ive seen so far i am a new subscriber i want to do what you guys are doing :)
She did a great impersonation! 😊
Awesome footage of a great film, however wish they would have continued with a sequel. Awesome footage ! Thanks for your hard work
Just watched while carving my pumpkin! This video was so bad booty! Just like always!!🖤
Great job guys, thank you. Interview with the vampire is timeless, the book and the movie as well.
Thanks for finding the filming locations to one of my favorite books. Decades ago, Anne Rice went on a book tour across the country. It was wonderful to meet her and have her sign my copy of Interview. I'll have to check to see if it's a first edition.
I live in Maine, I've met Mr. King many times & know the bookstore. Let me know if you travel North.
Michael , you & jessica are so GREAT & ENTERTAINING & FULL OF GREAT INFORMATION , Thanx Y'all !
Interview is without doubt my favourite Vampire film saw it twice when it was released, book , soundtrack, Audiobook, love it . Such a shame Mr Pitt apparently didn't like filming it and tried to get out of it ( Allegedly) ..Like your video too .
Same right like I can't see another person playing the role Louis as good as brad Pitt
@@tibaazher2792 I know right! So broody!
The same plantation was used for filming the adaptation of Nora Roberts' book, "Midnight Bayou".
Wow this was so cool! Not a fan of the movie but it is one of my favorite books ever! Fascinating stuff!! And John Goodman's house, that was a surprise! I didn't know he lived in NO. Thanks for the trip! Much love 😘😘💕✌️
I am a huge Anne Rice fan, particularly the Vampire Chronicles. Love your geographical on-the-scene narratives that accompany the theme of both the movie & the book. Great stuff!
Visiting NOLA during Halloween is on my bucket list since our anniversary is in October. If I would quit booking Disney trips..I could!
I love New Orleans so much, and Interview with the Vampire. Thank you for this video!
My favourite film of all time, so this was frickin awesome! I watched it at the cinema during the day, at an empty screening, as a teenager on a first date. After the movie, I was stunned and my life was changed forever! The girl I was with said "it was okay, I guess!" - Obviously I didn't see her again ;)
the best video I've seen
@Joseph Nickell You have good taste brother
They put that plantation house in the game Red Dead 2 as well. Such an iconic house
Lestat was known for hanging out at Cafe Du Monde in the books too.
This video is awesome! All your videos are awesome but I think this is my favorite one! I love Interview with a Vampire the book and the movie and I love all of Anne Rice book's!
Omgggg yyyaasssss I was just at Oak Alley it’s beautiful with a lot of history. I had to take pictures from the Oak Alley just like Jessica 💖🙌. Thank you so much for your videos we love them all.
What's interesting is the new Interview with the Vampire tv series was filmed at the Gallier House! As Lestat and Louis' townhouse
Happy Halloween you 2...
Thank you so much for this video. I love anything about Interview with the Vampie.
This is the perfect video to start my Halloween morning. Happy Samhain everyone.
satha witçh bewitchef
Jessica looks lovely with brown hair. This is my first time seeing one of your videos of her without her green hair. Honestly I wasn't upset seeing Tom Cruise as Lestat. He played the part well though the best Lestat was played by Stuart Townsend in Queen of The Damned.
I love Anne Rice. I have pretty much every book she has ever written. I think Interview With The Vampire is the best. Even the movie is amazing to me. All of the details are amazing. They might not be do every single thing to the t. Loved it. Thank You 🌹
My favorite Vampire movie of all time
Love your videos! TY so much for them!!!
I love, LOVE this video! Happy Halloween!!!!!
Like most people I was not impressed with the idea of Tom Cruise as Lestat, but I was willing to give it a chance when Anne came out with that huge newspaper apology. And he did a decent job. It was a pretty good adaptation. I would have picked David Bowie. I even loved Antonio as Armand... baby, when he runs his hand through that candle flame... oh my
Love these movie location videos!
Great video one of my favourite films of all time,thanks for doing this 👍
That cemetery also is where they filmed some of the movie "Double Jeopardy". Thanks for all you do. Love and peace always.
I love that guitar strumming through the video like you did with I think it was lost boy's, face Alot ambience to many of the locations. Great video as usual guy's.
Omg....LOVING Anne Rice's house!!!!!
Thanks, guys!!
Great video....shame you couldn't get into the cemetery
I totally loved tonight video yes I love Anne rice and interview with the vampire thanks for showing us all the locations that were in the movie happy Halloween stay spooky 🐱🐱🐱🐱🐱🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃
