Carrie is bullied by everybody in her senior class at Batesville High School, her mother Margret White (Piper Laurie) a nut for the religion. Carrie Whites life isn't perfect, it's sad you feel for her. As Brian De Palma has clearly pointed out in his wondeful masterpiece of horror as well as drama. Something which is rare in the horror genre, this film has the perfect mix of everything in it. Great acting, beautiful music done by Pino Donaggino, intense sequences of events that take us down a rabbit hole of emotions. Making the ending of the movie something you'll always remember. Casting was amazing with Sissy Spacek, Nancy Allen, P.J. Soles, Amy Irving, Piper Laurie and John Travolta all giving a once in a lifetime performance. It's …show more content…
just like any other school day at Batesville High, with all the senior girls laughing enjoying a game of volleyball.
Til Carrie (Sissy Spacek) ends up missing at her turn, making every girl upset including the worst of them all Chris Hargenson (Nancy Allen) who tells her terrible things a natural bully would do. All the high school girls have hostility towards poor Carrie, when there all in the shower, she is in need of help. Only for they poor girls to pull a prank on her with laughter in there hearts. Miss Collins (Betty Buckley) happens to be the only one who cares to help poor Carrie. With the moments to come calming Carrie down Miss Collins has a light break over her head, thinking that normally happens we soon learn how that happens. Which is the most important question in the first half of the film. Once she is sent to the principals office, he keeps calling her Cassie Wright, making an ashtray flip again how did that happen. The whole town thinks Margret White along with her daughter Carrie are looney. Piper Laurie gives an academy award performance as Margret, as well as Sissy Spacek for her portrayl of Carrie. Giving us two performances that we'll never forget, as Margret beats her daughter treating her poorly. Only she knows Carrie
has the power of being telekinetic though, something Carrie is learning along the way the ability to move things with your mind. As school stars the next day in gym class Miss Collins, demands retribution for how awful everyone treated Carrie. Dentention 1 hour everday for the week, or getting refused to the prom for not doing so. Chris objects right away causing a fight waiting to be caused, refusing her to the prom in the end. Sue Snell (Amy Irving) however feels guilty for treating Carrie so poorly, refusing her prom ticket as well for the better. Demanding her boyfriend Tommy Ross (William Katt) to do the right thing, making a poor inncoent girl to enjoy her prom at least. To give her one magical moment in her time at Batesville High. Carrie saies yes to Tommy causing it to be the talk of the school, Chris is furious as Billy (John Travolta) and her plan a disgusting plot on Carrie. The prom is breathtaking, it's magical in ways making me wish my prom was in the 1970's. The band was pretty rad, Carrie looked absoulty beautiful in her homemade dress. Withing never dancing the two of them do, ending up falling in love in one of the most magical scenes in horror movie history. Carrie has it all in the end in the moments before Chris pulls her prank, and within that terror is in full blast. Making the ending to be a diamond in the ruff. The movie was very detailed with how awful bullies can be, with blasphemy on the doors about Carrie. Including the religous nut of a mother, who's insane it's scary. Certain scenes I curl up into a ball seeing the true terror in her eyes and smile. Music colliding with acting so beautifully. The cinematography was good I enjoyed how it seem to be a nice peaceful town, that anyone would love to have there family live. The prom scenes were beautifully done, stars, hanging, ballons, just like my prom. Brian De Palma did a loyal job to Stephen Kings first novel, the differences between the two weren't so bad. Being so small that your not bothered, as some adaptations are. Carrie is a diamon in the ruff though, if you haven't seen it watch it.
Every person has different personalities that they develop during different stages in life. Many personalities start with parents and how they educate their children. That is the basis of who someone is. Once you get older you start to finally try and figure out who you are. High school can be either the best or the worst place to figure it out. High school is usually thought of a new scary place when starting freshmen year. There are kids who will be older and you will meet different types of people that you might have never met before. The way parents treat their kids can affect their school life. Meaning that if student’s lives at home are not good living conditions that can cause a gap between other students at school. The movie Carrie made in 1976, Carrie was bullied at school but also in way by the hands of her mother who also bullied her at home.
In the exposition of the story, Minus immediately delves into the characters, introducing us to both and young Carrie Johnson and Mrs. Cado P. Clark, the main characters in the story. She also gives us a physical description of Carrie, as well as a beginning presentation of Mrs. Clark’s character. Of Carrie, Minus writes, “…Carrie had come out of the South, the red clay clinging to her misshapen heels, made migrant by the disintegration of a crumbling age” also “Carrie’s wide brown nostrils...”(Girl, Colored 1940). Of Mrs. Clark’s character as person from the upper class; she writes “A pale blonde woman opened the door. Wisps of inoffensive hair strayed from the leather thongs of a dozen curlers set at variance on her head.”Minus instantly offers a feel for how each character will shape up to be, and presents a chance for us (the reader) to attach ourselves to these perhaps not-so-unique individuals. Without further ado, Minus expounds on her both her characters initial descriptions of throughout the remainder of the story.

The movie that I chose to do my analysis on, is Mean Girls because it is my all-time favorite movie. I watched it a million times, it never gets old and plus I know every single line in the movie. The main character Cady, played by Lindsay Lohan, exhibits how to go from being a nerd, popular, hated and rehabilitated all in one school year. It’s hilarious movie about high school but, it also covers many interpersonal concepts that we learned in class like: verbal communication, conflict and relationship dynamics. Before I provide my analysis, I’ll present my brief summary on the movie Mean Girls.
On the train to Chicago, Carrie had met a traveling salesman, Charlie H. Drouet. She is impressed by the way he talks and dresses. When they meet again, Drouet is aware of her beauty and innocence and he hopes to charm and seduce her. He "lends" Carrie money to buy nice winter clothes, treats her to fine meals, takes her to the theater, and shows her the sights of Chicago. Because Carrie is young and inexperienced in the world of men, she is not wise enough to understand where all Drouet's attention is leading toward. Although she senses that the money should be given back, her desire and longing for the good things in life are so powerful that she ignores her beliefs in what is right and wrong.
The movie, Fifty Shades of Grey, portrayals its dominant ideology sexuality through the story between two main characters: a female literature student named Anastasia Steele, and a young male billionaire Christian Grey. In this movie, it indicates strong traditional heterosexuality, and it reflects the gender roles about submission and dominance, which leads to gender inequality through misinformation. Although entertaining and refreshing, this movie brings more negative impacts more than positive ones.
