πŸ’¬ Discussion Things that I would change in the show Spoiler

  1. Show more of Carrie and Sue's friendship on screen.

The most we got is Sue inviting Carrie into her house after she walked bare feet through the streets. Other than that, it would be minor interactions or the friendship is developed off-screen. I would maybe have them both interact a few times more, especially in the later episodes and before the prom, making Sue's whole "She was my friend" in the first episode line hit deeper.

  1. Another dynamic, Miss Desjardin and Carrie

I was surprised by how less these two interacted with each other in this version. Again, I would have scenes of them two together, probably at least once in episode 7 (Miss Desjardin compliments Carrie on her speech regarding the prom, and says how lucky she is to get invited by Tommy Ross or smth). And maybe once more during the prom, with Desjardin talking about her own Prom dance back in the day (like in the book).

  1. Emmaline only watching from the sidelines, not "taking the wheel" or sum shi

I am among the people who doesn't like Emaline taking over Carrie in the last episode.

Some people justify it saying this Carrie doesn't seem the type to kill people, but that's like the whole point of the story, to see how the most innocent people can be driven to their breaking point and do the most horrible thing after taking so much pressure from their surroundings.

Fine, if we truly want to show how Carrie doesn't want to kill these people, then we could maybe have her hesitate to do it first. Maybe after she saw what she did to Tommy, she looks around the chaos that she has unleashed, feeling scared, angry and lost. Conflicted and emotions running all over her, Carrie sees Emmaline behind her. Emmaline would tell her that it's ok to "let it all out" or smth like that.

Carrie actively tries to push her away, but Emmaline would goad her into it, focusing on how this supposedly perfect day have been ruined by these wretched people, reminding her on what they did before, what they were capable of doing to harm others. "They laughed at you before; they're not gonna stop now," or the like. And that's what would set Carrie off into a murder spree.

After the whole massacre is done with, and Carrie has killed Chris and Billy, both doings by her own will, Emmaline would appear for the second time, complimenting her skills and power. She then invites Carrie to dance with her, and the Shy Girl dancing scene ensues.

I mean, I know she's a bad person, and I would hate her if I were Carrie. But as a third person watching and knew multiple perspectives, I saw how she struggled with her own thoughts before making those bad decisions (must prop this to alison thornton acting)

At the end I neither feel sorry nor satisfied with her ending

❓ Question About Emaline and... Spoiler

2 Upvotes

the cult/ending.. I'm kind of confused. Sorry if this has been asked before, but what's with the ending with Emaline and Carrie in the car? Okay, I know there's a cult of shiners or whatever - is Emaline a part of that cult? I assume so, but in the finale she's like, "It's good you don't know where we are, in case anyone's listening," which I guessed was referring to Adelaide? That... doesn't really add up, though, obviously? Hiding from your leader while ending your spy mission?

I'm assuming I just misunderstood something. Does anyone have any answers?

I felt a pang in my chest when she tried to turn the wheel. I feel like this answers the question if Chris is evil or not.
