    Not everyone was laughing, but we see through Carrie's perspective in that scene. Through blinding rage and with her mother's words echoing in her mind, she can't differentiate anymore. She's alone, scared, humiliated...and they will all pay for it. I've been there. Not to the same extent as Carrie, but ... fortunately I had some people in my corner, though at the time it didn't really matter. Rage is a powerful force. The tragedy is that Carrie would never get the chance to come to terms with hers. From the moment she was born, she never stood a chance.
    And Sissy Spacek is beyond phenomenal in this. She doesn't just sell her role, she makes you believe it, whole-cloth.

      Well, that was silly, because in the novel, Carrie may dress funny and was an awkwardly social, outcast but she was still probably the most beautiful girl in school, pimples and all. No one else seems to notice until prom night, so finding someone less attractive, would have been a mistake.

    Sue became sympathetic to Carrie after seeing her crazy mother at her house (3:15) which made her understand why Carrie was the way she was. And Chris and Norma hated Carrie cause they got in trouble over her (that period incident). The only characters that I thought Carrie was Justified in killing were Chris and her mother as THEY attempted to kill her first (one by attempting to hit her with her car and the other by stabbing her). And I tend to agree with you on that PE teacher - she just made the situation worse. And no, I doubt that slap would've flown, even in the seventies.

      You know what? I hadn't actually thought about that until now: Ms. Collins definitely made things worse by slapping Chris. It only fueled Chris' motivation to make Carrie's life even more miserable. I absolutely agree. Now, Ms. Collins had no idea just how far Chris would go in the end, but she definitely didn't help anything by slapping. It just made Chris want to one-up the slap. *sigh* I love this movie. One of my all-time faves. 🥰🥰

    High school was like that in the 70s, not to that extreme, but there were dirty tricks, teachers could spank, punish independent of the principal but the courts whittled that away. Passive aggression has replaced it. It shifted from parents trusting the school to not trusting the school and schools having to trust the lawyers. Carrie's upbringing by a zealous single mother was odd then but I knew several girls from fundamentalist families who were protected from sex & drugs to the extreme for good or bad. We were more free then but sometimes bad folks took advantage of that. I don't know what Stephen King was trying to say with the story other than fool around & find out when you've targeted a very repressed person who hasn't learned enough self control. Great reaction Dasha!

    Before they started filming the movie, Sissy Spacek, who played Carrie, told the rest of the castmates that she loved them all and was looking forward to working with them, but while the movie was being filmed she was going to stay away from them and for them to not take it personally; she just wanted to feel the isolation her character felt. P.J. Soles, who played Brenda (the girl with the red baseball cap) said later in an interview, that they all respected Sissy so much for doing that they were all meaner to her than they were supposed to be because they believed it would help her give a better performance.
    Nancy Allen, who played the main bully, Chris, said she never knew how mean her character was until she watched the movie.
    Piper Laurie, who played Margaret, Carrie's mother thought the movie was a black comedy, which is why she gave such an off the wall performance.
    Amy Irving, who played Sue Snell and Priscilla Pointer, who played Sue's mother, are daughter and mother in real life.
    Sissy Spacek insisted on performing the stunt in the last scene herself when Carrie stuck her hand out from under her grave. Stephen King said, who wrote the novel the movie was based on, said he nearly soiled himself then he saw that scene.
    The scene at the end where Sue carries the flower to Carrie's grave was filmed with her walking away from the grave backwards and then the film was played in reverse. That's why the scene has an ethereal, dreamlike quality to it.

I have always loved the final scene where Carrie sets the school ablaze. She walks out of there so slow and methodical which to me is scary. She looks like the Devil. lol Good for Carrie for taking care of business We didn't take any crap in the 70's . HAHA I heard during an interview with Amy Irving, that her scream was so scary that her mother (real mother played her mom) got so freaked out, that she held her and said Her name (Amy) instead of Sue. . The noise was so loud it was not picked up by the microphone. Her own real mother was freaked out. That is a loving mother.

    I highly recommend to read Stephen King's novel "Carrie". The book answers many of your questions.
    3:04 Priscilla Pointer plays Sue's mother, and actually is Amy Irving (Sue)'s mother.
    5:27 if Carrie had the gym teacher as her mother, all this mayhem would not have happened.
    6:11 in the book, Carrie is a silent person who never speaks up. I guess the teacher was overwhelmed by surprise.
    And oh my yes, some of my teachers at school back in the 1980s also took part in my humiliation... and I'm actually writing a novel about it, finally able four decades after it had happened...
    7:12 brutal today, quite normal in the 1970s.
    7:58 nope, that is 50 minutes of serious calisthenics per day, added to the regular 3 hours PE per week.
    10:17 weird for me too, when I was a teenager, we were not driving cars. We rode mopeds at best, but mostly bicycles.
    10:46 Billy and Chris do not share the same school, so Billy does not know Carrie (hence "who?").
    13:27 this is where bullying ends and criminal assault begins.
    15:38 Sue is on the good side.
    24:02 Carrie activates the sprinklers to ruin the prom dresses.

    It's a story about the "banality of evil," where nobody is really evil, just more of a thoughtlessness, acting more out of pique than true malice. Like the school principal who keeps calling her "Cassie." The bucket of blood isn't supposed to hurt anyone. The insane mother isn't really trying to hurt anyone, until the end, and that's only because she feels she is confronting Satan. Pushed, Carrie has what amounts to a psychotic break, which coupled with her ability ends in violence, but without that ability ... nothing would have happened. And if Carrie didn't have that ability, she never would have gone to the prom in the first place, because her mother would have prevented it. So, it's the sort of thing where you might look at the result and fairly say, "Well ... that escalated quickly."

      Sorry to hear that. I had the opposite experience, but I grew up more in the country and the boys were all very physical. Farmboys. Therefore there was a lot of fighting and competition. I was always pretty easy going and yet I probably got into a dozen fistfights in school. The boys were just rough, and if you didn't stand up for yourself you got picked on. I never wanted to be that boy, so I would always choose to fight the bullies. Got suspended twice for it, but it was worth it because they never bullied a second time.
      My point is that culture probably has a lot to do with it.

    See so many reactions where they feel a show isn't scary without CGI, regardless of having watched the exorcist and such. CGI is just a tool used to support a flick. It does its job based on how well its done. Wanna try Salems lot? You could compare the original to the new one.
