They meant well but I think the prom was too big of an event for Carrie. If they wanted to help Carrie's social life perhaps they should've started with something smaller like maybe take her to the movies or a small restaurant something like that.
I’m guessing Sue felt like she didn’t deserve to go after what she did. And didn’t want Tommy to go alone or not at all so she probably thought she could kill two birds with one stone
Thats really sweet of Sue & Tommy! Not many kids would of helped somebody like Carrie. The same with Ms Collins or Dejardan, teachers showing sympathy 😍
Sweet and hilarious scene. We feel Sue’s genuine effort to make it up to Carrie, and yet Ms. NotDesjardin had every right to be protective. And Tommy’s reluctance was both eyerolling but believable (and in the end, he was kinda falling for Carrie too.) See what CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT does? Modern screenwriters, please take note.
@ 2:02. Miss Collins sounds like the bullies in high school, but in a nonchalant tone. I caught on years later. This actually is the "book" version of Miss Collins.
I think it was her way to verificate or check that they don't mean bad. It was a way to say: "Do you think you'll look ridiculous if you go with Carrie?" so that she will know that they don't want to harm Carrie
Tommy is a good dude when you think about it. He did this for his girlfriend Sue, missing a chance to go with her, and still made Carrie feel like a queen the entire time at prom. He could have said no but in the end he was never selfish and was trying to help out both girls
@@EastSide-qc5oy yeah back then it was seen as abnormal to go by yourself. It's suppose to be a boy/girl event but times were different, things are so different now.
belle811🖤🌖 Yes, and I could also see there being a behavioral component to it from the school’s perspective: to deter groups of unpaired teens showing up together and getting rowdy. Teens being paired up with dates might lessen the likelihood of bad behavior, since socially they will want to impress their dates and adhere to the ritual. A little bit of social control. I mean, kids can and sometimes do get into trouble even when paired at proms and dances, but I can see the enforced pairing cutting down on that.
This scene always kind of bothered me, as it's basically a tacit admission she was mostly just lying to Carrie in the previous scene to make her feel better.
Well, what did you expect her to say? Tell Carrie to trust no one and the world was out to get her? Carrie already hears enough of that from her mother.
How is he a bargaining chip between the two? Miss Collins just wants to get to the bottom of what they are planning, as she suspects possible nefarious intentions, or at best just a poorly thought out act of good will that won’t go well for Carrie. That’s why she questions Tommy about how much he has really thought about this plan to take Carrie to the prom.
@@ChristianProtossDragoon you could but it was not a social norm - kinda like going to prom dressed in drag in the day - not banned but socially looked down upon and taboo
@@ravernnoir1821 Sue showed up alone to see how him and Carrie were doing and the moment Ms. Collins spotted her she immediately threw her out. So yeah I think back then probably depending where you were located you weren't allowed to go to prom unless you brought a date. But of course there's that other theory that Ms. Collins might have been worried if Sue was just there to only sabotage Carries special night.
belle811🖤🌖 I think Miss Collins tossed Sue out of the gymnasium in that beautifully choreographed slow-motion segment because she was indeed concerned that Sue was up to no good. Even though she softened to Tommy earlier in the prom scene where she had her sweet and doting sit down chat with Carrie, she probably never fully let go of her suspicion that something nefarious might be going on. The moment she spotted Sue it was like her suspicions were confirmed. Of course, if she had actually given Sue a chance to explain herself during that segment, as Sue was trying to call attention to Chris and Billy under the stage, tragedy might have been averted.
I always wonder why this part was never in the book? It reflected on the 2013 remake and followed the same words, but this wasn't in the book
Sometimes a creation surpasses the creator. 😁
@@ChristianProtossDragoon the 2002 version was the only version that followed it
I think the whole idea of the 2002 tv version was so there was one adaption that went the same way has the novel 😎👍🎉
@@kerryannbradley6292 I see.
Leave out the PC analysis. It's just a film.
I wonder how the teacher would have reacted if Sue just told her that she regrets tormenting Carrie and wants to make up for it
2:05 “we don’t care how we look” that line never fails to make me laugh just watching Tommy trying to hold his composure
They meant well but I think the prom was too big of an event for Carrie. If they wanted to help Carrie's social life perhaps they should've started with something smaller like maybe take her to the movies or a small restaurant something like that.
Exactly, they could take her out of the shell carefully, the child doesn't go to college directly.
I’m guessing Sue felt like she didn’t deserve to go after what she did. And didn’t want Tommy to go alone or not at all so she probably thought she could kill two birds with one stone
@@raularellano297
She actually killed two birds (Carrie and Tommy) by mistake and in good faith.
@@mohammadmostafa9215, geez now that’s a cruel irony.

Does your first name come from Carrie? xD
Tommy face when he opens his mouth lol 😆
🤣

Yes
0:59 Tommy wanted to laugh but kept it in lol 😂
Yeah LOL!!
1:31 “don’t count your chickens” 😂
Ok.
@@ChristianProtossDragoon why okay?
I agree.
why did he say that
@@StacyHirshIt’s his way of telling her not to raise your hopes up!
Goodness Pj Soles looked so cute at the time!!!

I always took that as a last resort / strategy she used to try to get them to stop making the effort because she was concerned about Carrie
She didnt mean in that way she meant it as in carrie is the girl the whole school makes fun of and hes one of the popular guys

Tommy hair is giving me 💅 💋 💄 vibes lol but it was the 70s
that was the look in the mid to late 70's, men wore long hair back then
i love how Tee-jay totally killed Archie.
Because if Sue Snell has not to be in their senior prom. She refuses to stay at home, really😑
I love this scene
That's just stupid you can't go without a date
Yeah.
I mean this was about 45 years ago. Times were a bit different.
@@EastSide-qc5oy yeah back then it was seen as abnormal to go by yourself. It's suppose to be a boy/girl event but times were different, things are so different now.

That’s kinda stupid. You still can go even without a date

I see.
@@ChristianProtossDragoon Do you get what I mean?
Well, what did you expect her to say? Tell Carrie to trust no one and the world was out to get her? Carrie already hears enough of that from her mother.
I dunno, I think she just wanted to boost Carrie's confidence/give her hope whilst also making sure she doesn't get hurt in the process
Tommy is just a piece of meat and bargaining chip between the other two in this scene.
How is he a bargaining chip between the two?

Will they do a remake of Carrie with an all non-white cast?
Woah, is it true that you couldn’t go to prom without a date back in the day?
I guess so...
@@ChristianProtossDragoon you could but it was not a social norm - kinda like going to prom dressed in drag in the day - not banned but socially looked down upon and taboo

Nobody didn't made fun of me at a prom😐
Oh...
@@ChristianProtossDragoon Yep
At first glance I actually read it as porn. lol
2:20 lol that face he is making 😁
Yep
Pretty weird watching Tommy slide all over that bench. One second he's at the end and the next second he's snuggling up to Sue.
i love sue so much ugh
