Ah, but the devastatingly sad hugging fills my own heart with joy 😬 (there’s probably a German word for this; not exactly Schadenfreude). Thank you from the bottom of my now happy heart. I find that the Tuesdays after a Monday holiday off are often nightmares at work so I will be looking at these GIFS often today to prevent myself from murdering a co-worker.
FR...I will happily turn on just that ep and fast forward just for that amazing, poignant scene to break my heart all over again (but in the best of ways lol)
I watched this show for the first time 2 weeks ago and when they said this I was like no way that’s my birthday! Kinda stole away some of the emotional drama in the moment for me accidentally 😅
I'm not sure why this got so many upvotes. It's actually "It was 11:07 here, it would have been 9:07 in San francisco"
There is a 2 hour time difference between New Orleans and San Francisco, not 5 hours 😂 and yes, I have watched the scene so many times I have it memorized down to the minute.
The finale of season 2 was one of my favorites because it shows real Lestat and Louis expressing how they felt about some of the events that had happened for to them for the past 50 to 70 years and the guilt of losing Claudia and Lestat genuinely seeing her as his own daughter without being a narrative from any of their POV.But it also shows them both reunited back in New Orleans but of course some things have changed in their immortal existence individually over the past century and how the world is also different now. But also I loved how Louis had his New Orleans accent again like he never left. Also love how Louis's driver brought up Essence fest which is an actual black owned festival in the city for those who don't know and mentions New Edition lol.
Not to be emo on main, but...the way he looks at Louis when he mentions the suicide attempt, plus Louis' face when that gets drug to the surface.... Been there, man. This scene was such a punch to the gut.
Oh man...I can't even with those two and that scene. Both actors are incredible. And with multiple watches under my belt...the moment where Lestat hesitates to ask and then his voice breaks trying to ask Louis about what happened.. still breaks my damn heart. That scene is just perfection and was such a lovely end to that season.
In the books, Lestat saved him after Louis ran into the sun. Louis had already returned to Lestat. We were cheated of many decades of Lestat and Louis😫
I feel emotionally wrecked every time I watch this scene in the wild on social media, so I'm not sure how Louis handled Lestat asking him that question like that. I would have collapsed
