why is lestat's turn of events more truthful than louis'?? like, no doubt about it that louis is an unreliable narrator. which he also does admit to himself, he is very aware that he is speaking from his perspective and he doesn't know everything and time does change memories and views of those memories.

but why do so many people in the fandom believe lestat over louis? why is he automatically more reliable and truthful than louis?

#i'm not just saying this because louis is my favourite. like yes he is unreliable that is true #but so is lestat and it's weird to not question HIS version of events #the show wants us to question the idea of memory and perspective and narrative and who is telling the story #just because the white character says something doesn't mean you should believe him and pity him #(also lestat is likely under mind control/tortured before the trial into condemning louis and claudia)#QUESTION EVERYTHING PLEASE #READ BOOKS AND ARTICLES ABOUT RACE IN GOTHIC LIT PLEASE #iwtv #interview with the vampire #amc iwtv s2 spoilers #amc iwtv season 2 #tvc #louis de pointe du lac #lestat de lioncourt #amc iwtv #interview with the vampire season 2
