Interview with the Vampire: Claudia's Story by Ashley Marie Witter

4.0

It's beautifuly done. The dialogs are accurately taken from the book and the main plot points are saved. They could choose to not draw the revenants part for example. It wasn't done in the movie, so it was interesting to look at here. And one maybe strange thing to compliment, Anne Rice described it probably one time? But it's what my brain holds on to regarding Claudia. She sits like a grown woman. The author made it look natural. And I actually realised right now: they play with evolution of her plastic from childish to grown up's through the whole thing, admirable. One scene I didn't like much (if I'm not mistaken it's the sole addition from the adaptor): the inside look into her pre death conversation with Armand. I've always thought he just let this mess play out on it's own in the end. The choice to make him an active participant isn't exactly out of character, he is a little demon, when he wants to be, but for some reason I see him acting more passive at this point.
