Believe it or not, he and Brad Pitt won "Worst Movie Couple" Razzie for this movie. I strongly disagree with that award btw, especially in regards to Tom (Brad acting was indeed a bit stiff at the time, he was far from a great actor back then, but I think he was still passable all things considered, mainly due to his stunning looks), but that's the kind of recognition they got for their performances. I think the film itself and the critics' reaction to it left a bad taste for both of them. lol I'm sure for Cruise it was like the coldest shower he had ever had. He had always been everyone's darling up until that point.

I didn't really like Cruise as an actor back then but as he's grown older, I've grown to appreciate his work and films. But even now nearly 30 years later, it still blows my mind that this is Tom Cruise because the character is so completely different from anything else he's ever done. In every film, Tom Cruise plays Tom Cruise. But in this, he really was a magnificent Lestat.

Come on Lestat. For all your complaining about Louis we all know you still miss him.

The only thing unrealistic about this scene (apart from, you know, VAMPIRES) is how calm everything is in that car. You cannot even stand still on the Golden Gate bridge without nonstop 20-50mph winds coming from the pacific. Hair whipping like crazy, it's like being in a constant wind tunnel. Yet their hair is mostly untousled, the tape player is audible, and Lestat can speak in a conversational level instead of shouting. Lol!

This version of Daniel got it from Lestat for the low low cost of a new corner panel and a slight raise in his insurance premium 😂

I remember seeing this in the theatre, I was 12. We were so stoked for this to come out. In my view, it still holds up as one of the best damn films ever made. Even actress Kirsten Dunst who played Claudia said they just don't make films like this anymore. What makes it so great is that they were able to take two extremely well-known actors of that time; one who was in his prime (Cruise) and the other, (Pitt) who had literally just blown up maybe a year or two before, having never taken on a role like this, and they were able to pull off these literary characters so bloody well that you completely forgot it was even them. Definitely not an easy thing to do, for any actor. But I think the appeal also lies in the fact that in watching this, you're kind of reminded of a more innocent time. This was long before Cruise went off the deep end with all the Scientology nonsense, and most people really had no clue whatsoever about the darker side of Hollywood. In any case, like the characters themselves, this film will never get old, and it will never die.

It wasn't even accurate. In the novel, Daniel was bitten by Louis after the interview, not Lestat.

Love this scene, too, and always been one of my favorite movies. A perfect bookend to the opening scene at the beginning of that night. ALSO, I love that song. The Rolling Stones original is my favorite of all songs by that iconic band. But I love this version, too, and it is SO perfect here. Axl adds a bit of menace that even Mick doesn't have. Also, RIP Anne Rice. She was skeptical of the movie and casting at first, but she came to love it.

Tom cruise is the best Lestat.

Maybe in a alternative timeline they made the first 4 vampire chronicles books into movies with Tom cruise as Lestat and it being faithful to the books.
