Summary
 IWTV 50th Month comes to a nostalgic close with this too-cool-for-school tour through the social movement that influenced Anne and her early work, specifically INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE. Did the Rue Royale and Parisian catacombs first give life to Louis, Lestat and Claudia? Or did they first spring into existence after Anne and the love of her life migrated to America’s West Coast in the early 1960s to pursue their art? As they serve up a quirky 1985 documentary called JACK KEROUAC: KING OF THE BEATS, Christopher and Eric reflect on how1960’s social youth culture shaped Anne’s first, definitive novel. Along the way, they’re also presented with a queer true crime story that could use a more contemporary analysis – so they give it one, dragging the fact and all the players — as well as what was missing from the original telling — out of the closet and into a stronger light.
