Interview with the Vampire Season 1 Episode 3 | 5 Things You Probably Missed

I am Joel Sharpton one half of the articulate coven podcast and this is five things you might have missed in episode three of Interview with the Vampire the eating of the evildoer as Louis suggests early in this episode to lat as if it were his original idea is actually quite a thing for most of the vampires in an Rice's books Marius lat Louie Armand and more 10 to only eat Killers rapists drug dealers Etc is this one of those things we're supposed to notice that does it make sense or just a change made to this TV world jelly roll Morton presented here as the leader of the aelia band is considered by most people to be the original Jazz composer taking an art form that had previously been thought all about improvisation into publication jelly roll was born in the fob Marin District of New Orleans in 1890 he lied on his World War I draft registration in 1918 saying that he was born in 1884 Marton started his Jazz career at 14 working in a brothel just as we see on the show probably because of those surroundings he would often sing body lyrics and took on the nickname jelly roll which was Believe It or Not slang for the female anatomy born Ferdinand Joseph lamth he changed his last name after his grandmother discovered he had been playing in brothel and told him he had disgraced the family name 100 plus years later Grandma he did just fine in the real world jellyroll Morton moved to Chicago in 1914 so he wouldn't have been in New Orleans for lat to run out of town in 1917 The Wolverine Blues was first published in 1923 in Richmond Indiana and was not written even in part by lat that we're aware of a new flame and an old boyfriend unsettle our vampiric domestic Bliss in this episode while Jonah is a new creation for the show Anette is a gender swapped Anan from the original novel Interview with the Vampire BYO was not what it had been no spoilers for either Anan or Annette storylines but you should know she is an an rice Creation The Odyssey of recollection if you watched my video about things you might have missed in episod episode 2 you are already watching for this sort of thing whether or not it was raining when Jonah and Louie go out to the Bayou is just the most obvious example so far that we've gotten in the show that things don't all add up why don't they add up who does it want them to what will it all add up to in the end anyway watch closely my friends you're seeing a magic trick pulled off by Rand Jones and Company they said the thing Louie asks Daniel toward the end of the episode is my very nature that of the devil that's the title of this episode of course just like every episode title in this series it's also a line directly from an Rice's original novel Rand Jones The Creator and showrunner of this series is a devout an rice fan and passionate about her novels these titles are just a small way that that love and reverence is shown throughout this series the series is an amazing adaptation of Ann's works and I'm excited that new people are finding it every day but the fact that some of those people will then discover an's Timeless Works makes this all even that much more special there's your five it's time for your lanap fact lat references the Louisiana Purchase as Penny wise and Frank foolish the Louisiana Purchase as we call it in American history or as they call it in France VA de Louisiana which means the sale of Louisiana was completed in 1803 under the jurisdiction of President Thomas Jefferson and Emperor Napoleon bonapart the purchase consisted of most of the land drained by the Mississippi River to its West the United States purchased the land for $15 million or just under $18 a square mile so lat is right the Americans got a heck of a deal but he's wrong in thinking that Napoleon was foolish for selling so low first Napoleon had only recently acquired the land France had controlled the Louisiana Territory since 1682 but had seeded it to the Spanish in 1762 Napoleon had won it back in 1800 in exchange for territory in Tuscany and while Napoleon sold more than 820,000 square miles of land the French only actually controlled and occupied a very small portion of that land the vast majority of the Louisiana Purchase was actually native American territory was a wildy little gu that Napoleon okay so next week lots of Claudia so stay tuned though if you're watching this on YouTube the next episode is already available on our Patron feed see the links below this video was made possible by our patrons makers Gabby neckan Jennifer Morgan Mindy raftery child of the Millennia Madame mayor and the Queen of the Damned herself Nancy Ward this one's for you Nancy if you want to support the show and and get all of our content adree and early go to articulate cov.com /join
