Interview With The Vampire Lestat de Lioncourt (Tom Cruise) SFX Contact Lenses Set
"Interview With The Vampire: The Vampire Chronicles" (1994), takes place both in the now, when a 200 year old vampire tells his story to a reporter, and a flashback to the story itself which takes place in 1791. The long time vampire is Louis De Pointe Du Lac (Brad Pitt), and the story is about how he "helped" plantation owner Lestat de Lioncourt (Tom Cruise), regain some meaning to his life after he lost his wife in childbirth. He does this by biting Lac and turning him into a vampire. However, as is usually the case, not all turns out so well! The two integral iconic images of vampires are their fangs, and their eyes. These are a set of Cruise's specially crafted vampire contact lenses screen worn in the movie. The first set are known as his "touchstone" vampire contacts, and the second set are the "burn effect" contacts, after Lac is caught in an inferno, and is thrown in the swamp... but of course, returns. They were hand-fitted to Mr. Cruise, and custom designed and hand-painted by Master Special Effects Make-Up Artist, and special effects contact lens expert, Andrea Le Vine. This set of four one-of-a-kind lenses come from Ms. Le Vine's personal collection, and include a Letter of Provenience from Ms. Le Vine. Each individual lenses is stored in its original saline bottle with the original label.
