Watch this. Tell me what you think.

After watching, I think we're probably thinking the same thing. Yeah. Saddest movie, but one of the best. Right?
No!
Did anyone notice that Satine is a VAMPIRE? You might want to watch it again now...
Alright, let's go over this. As soon as the lights go off, Satine convulses in pain. Anyone's notive how white her skin is? Christian runs to her. She does even have the strength to raise her head, but after she "has a coughing fit" and has been close to Christian, there is blood on her nouth. Everyone is sad.
theme: "The greatest thing you'll ever learn is to love and be loved in return."
Yeah...here's how it really went. The lights onstage are pretty bright. Anyone who's been up there knows. It gets bright and hot. Guess what? Vampires don't do well in the light. In fact, they die.
Now Satine, is a pretty strong vampire. She can stand the light for a little bit.Did anyone notice how she doesn't go out during the day? Yeah- She's a "lady of the night", in more than one way.
The pale skin just adds to her vampireness.
Anyone notice how Christian gets all pale and crying after Satine "coughing" on him. There she is with blood in her face, and he's looking pale, sweaty and upset.
I would be too if I were bitten by a vampire.
At the end of the clip, you see Christian typing up the story. (i guess being bitten by a vampire is one kind of inspiration.) (depression is another) and he's both!.
Anyway. of anything her could write, he has to type "live forever".
Hmmm. what kind of person lives forever? Oh! Vampires! Unless they've been shot with a silver bullet through the heart....or stabbed in the heart with a cross....or out near garlic....
....or being under a spotlight for too long.
But before she died, Satine passed her vampiric qualities onto her lover. How sweet. Now HE will live forever!
The best love story ever!
*Please note. I really did appreciate this movie. I see myself purchasing it in the future. The way the movie was shot was amazing. I liked the way the mood changed between the crazy parties with many distractions and the long romantic shots. It really showed a difference between the fleeting, valuless things and the true, everlasting things in life. It's sad that people try to overpwer things so pure and true.
I thought about the above section because I was joing around in an effort not to cry and the end.

was that your first time watching it? I think it was you that said you had never seen it before. It's pretty great, huh? I love the music.
As for Satine being a vampire, that's a pretty entertaining idea. However, I must correct you in your vampire lore. Werewolves are the ones that are killed by silver bullets, not vampires. Not that it matters much, unless you're being attacked by a vampire and try to defend yourself with a gun full of silver bullets. Then you'll be up a creek without a paddle! So, in a way, I'm saving your life. You can thank me any time.
