Check out the yahoo movies article by Karen Warner which compares the "old Carrie" to the "new Carrie." movies.yahoo.com
Warner breaks it down for us nice and simple. She also really likes the film!
Key differences Warner notes:
- Contemporary Humiliation
- Age-Appropriate Actors
- Variations on Mom
- More Death! More Destruction!
- A Telekinetic Takeoff
- Survivor Pool
There's an article that goes with these simple points -- so read it!
When discussing the death and destruction, Warner says, "“In Stephen King's novella she destroys half the town and Kimberly Peirce's new version hints at that more than the De Palma one (though neither film really recaptures the scope of the book's ending).” (NOVELLA?!)
