El Conde

In a 2023 interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Pablo Larraín spoke about the origin of the idea of vampires making blood smoothies: "Well, it's a joke. I don't know ... every time I go to L.A., there are all these people making smoothies out of anything and everything. (Laughs.) And that became a fashion everywhere - it spread from California to everywhere. So, we thought that instead of having the vampires do the classical neck bite and sucking the blood and all that, this smoothie thing would be a funny idea and an interesting political comment, too - to open the chest of someone and take out their heart and put it into a blender. You know, the vampires are very eloquent and particular in their motivations."

Marie Antoinette's body was buried in a pit, not a tomb. After the revolution, her body was unearthed, identified, and then reburied in a coffin in the basement of St. Denis basilica.
