Salò, or the 120 Days of Sodom (1975)
i make you answer questions and then tell you what tragic horror character i think suits you best, because doing that is more fun than working on my assignments. simple and straightforward, have fun!
hello all, i made a silly quiz to procrastinate on uni work! take it if you want, and let me know what you get in the tags/replies !!
i interact with art first with my body, then with my mind. it is very hard trying to use my body to talk about the characters, instead of using the characters to talk about my body. it doesn't really help that tumblr fandom culture makes me feels like im in a Théâtre des Vampires play.
girl i was still working on my response lol thank u for looking out for me that way💕 do you still wanna hear my unorganized thoughts on the matter? they involve thinking of lestat as a marie antoinette libelle instead of a complex human being.
WAIT yes 👼i didddd misunderstand the comment
you said "louis lost between destruction and control" and all i heard was bulimia nervosa. i was feeling crazy about my lestat take but after a quick rewatch, he's literally introduced with his back turned to us as louis says on voiceover: gluttonous whoring. call me harper stern the way i cope by being proven FUCKING RIGHT‼️anyway, what im saying is i don't find it surprising that louis main method of self harm in 1132 rue royale is fasting. lestat propositions him with the promise of freeing him from the shame of desiring: you can want because i will give you, you can be hungry because i will feed you. but what freedom means to louis as a southern, catholic, queer man of colour in america, is very different from what lestat, as a white french queer, can and is willing to offer him. you cannot want because i will not give you, you cannot be hungry, he will not feed you.
well no actually
hey you forgot to post my explanation ! do not separate
I need something that is impossible to give receive or define
there comes a moment in every little girls life, where she has to take a hard long look at herself and realize she's more like louis then claudia
The Vampire Condition™: a mostly meaningless existence where you hurt your loved ones and yourself while learning little to nothing in the process.
as someone who sees vampirism in a predominantly negative light, i sometimes feel misplaced schadenfreude when i remember louis, armand and lestat will have to live the rest of eternity locked up in a mostly meaningless existence: constantly hurting each other and themselves while learning little to nothing in the process, after what they did to claudia. misplaced, because i don't think she herself saw vampirism in a negative light at all. i think her distress came mostly from systemic oppression and abuse she suffered at the hands of her caretakers, not the vampire condition in itself.
