Carrie

[mousenmile]

Tribute was pretty good, who made that!? I would have been the soul survivor of the Carrie attack. I never would have picked on her and I would have kicked butt on those who did. Where I grew up there was only one black person in school and everyone picked on him. I hated it and got in quite a few fights because of it, LOL! I won't tell you the choice name they called me because of it. I always felt so sorry for poor Carrie!! I think Susannah Dean would have liked me too!

I absolutely agree w/ you. I loved Carrie, Which BTW was my first King read, as I said before I love to see his books come to life. wheter the've made changes or not.
By The time things were heating up, I was cheering Carrie on. "wipe them out girl!"

I just rewatched Carrie a few days ago. I should say I like it. I love both the book and the movie. And I really feel sorry for Carrie, because I can understand that situation, when everybody is laughing at somebody. And I really know what the person at whom they are laughing feel. This is awful and I hate it! I can't understand why people do like that, why they always laugh at someone. Sometimes people can be very evil, and that's really terrible!
So, I think that such stories as Carrie may help us to understand that we must care about the other people's feelings.

----or suffer the consequences!! Creepy Carrie, Creepy Carrie!
*bike swerves and crashes to the ground* This was a great rendition of King's work. I thought Sissy was fab but Piper should have won an award for her role as Momma. Now if you'll excuse me, I must go into my closet and pray for my soul as I too(Mousenmile) was rooting for Carrie to destroy everyone and everything in town, especially that lil brat on the bike in the beginning. lol

Thank you Tabitha!

Great movie!

Can't believe I never read Carrie before now...well actually I just finished listening to the Sissy Spacek narrated version on CD. I have read nearly everything else out there but for some reason I can't explain, I never read the classic - Carrie. Wow.....it was awesome. Now, I need to see the movie ! Sounds like it was pretty faithful to the book.

One of Stephen's best. Hands down. I recently picked up a new copy with a new forward explaining the origins of the novel, Mrs King retrieving it from the trash and sort of a composite of girls that SK knew that became Carrie White.

I loved the movie but I haven't read the book. I will as soon as I find it here. The bookstore I normally go to has the complete set of Dark Tower books and no Carrie. That movie was so sad. There will always be someone different in a town or community but if that someone had a family that would say, "we have your back," then life would be more tolerable. Carrie was so alone with a lunatic for a mother. Yeah, I loved Piper Laurie but hated the character.

I also loved that song during the prom.
Sissy Spacek is an excellent actress and I'm sad that she didn't have more films.

yeah I saw the movie and read the book and I admit they were the most similar of a lot of his books made to movies. I think it depends a lot on the directer/producer and who writes the script for the movie....too many times they don;t have the guts for SK vision.....

Carrie was my scecond book by Stephen King (lend it but didn´t get back). I like it very much and also the movie is great. Especially Sissy Spacek is amazing!
