Interview with the Vampire (2022)
Still a great story!

I loved the original story, and this is no exception. Most of the characters are rich, the two main actors are brilliant with highly emotive performances, some of the other characters feel like "fillers" with little purpose other than to extend the running time.
What I find most disappointing, although true to the essence of the original story, the producers and director have added an element of racial politics. If the directors were going to be inclusive then replacing white actors with black ones isn't the way to do it. If you wanted equality, then young Claudia would be Asian, Native American, Portuguese, Mexican or even Indian. Racial exclusivity isn't cool, regardless of the direction.
