scenes are unchanged in the movie from the book. That’s why I found that the plot in the movie was exactly as it was in the book. There is a scene where Louis first feeds off of Claudia and her transformation, and there is also a scene at the Theatre de Vampires are practically word for word from the book. There is a scene where Claudia sleeps in Louis' coffin this also accurse in the movie. There is also a scene where Lestat locks a whore in a coffin which also accurse in the movie but much more entertaining

Rice’s Interview With the Vampire. The three main characters are vampires who spend their time trying to conceal their urges to bite people’s neck an suck their blood until death has almost fallen upon them, but never until death actually occurs. Louis, Lestat, and Claudia struggle throughout the novel to suppress their urges to kill and battle with their evil desires. Lestat is the first character in the novel to become a vampire.

By the end of the novel, Lestat had changed to see things the way that his friend, Louis, did. A dynamic character is one who is well-developed and changes a lot throughout the whole story. And example of a dynamic character is Louis de Pointe du Lac, who is also a main character in the novel Interview with the Vampire. Louis was constantly changing because

Anne Rice seems to portray Lestat as a stereotypical vampire, but what most readers do not see is that Lestat is more attached to his human mortality than he appears. Anne Rice shows us this when Louis describes Lestat’s view on life as a vampire. Instead of having a reverence for mortality like Louis does, Lestat has "revenge against life itself" (Rice 46). His vendetta against life seems to show the reader how genuinely detached Lestat is from his own human mortality, making him appear more like
