Carrie is such a good tragedy cause. It was already too late from the beginning. Even if the love was there. That teacher? She fucking loved that girl. The girl who had her bf take Carrie to prom? Sure she was a dick at first but she really did wanna help. Even the bf seemed to really enjoy himself.
But it doesn’t matter cause the problem is at home. Carries mother is insanely abusive and manipulative towards her, keeping her unaware, childish and afraid. The teachers and principals are aware of this, but as of the 70s and Carrie almost being an adult they didn’t do anything. And that’s the tragedy.
If someone stepped in before, took her away from her mother, had her live a normal life without the Christian guilt, this wouldn’t have happened.
It’s her mother, after all, who tells her they will all laugh at her.
Even when they weren’t. Save for a few, the laughing Carrie hears is a hallucination. Everyone seems quite awestruck and sad. They were happy for her for a moment. Everything was okay for a moment.
But it wasn’t enough. The love was there but it was too late. Carrie is long past her breaking point. The girl she wanted to be, was so desperate to be, has already had her light snuffed out by her mother. Carrie White the monster burned with her mother that night, but Carrie White the girl died on that stage.
i'm actually devastated that this film about artist exploitation was "remastered" using AI. several scenes did look good but those were few and far between and absolutely did not make up for the blatant AI oversmoothing, eye/face fuckery, etc. i mean i'm glad i got to see it on the big screen and all but i wish they had shown the 200px version you used to be able to watch on youtube.

a little sneak peek of my piece for NOT JUST SONGS: A Phantom Of The Paradise Zine....... ;} Visit @potpzine for more information!
i think that phantom of the paradise should have been 45 minutes longer and the extra 45 minutes is just a montage of winslow attempting to kill swan or terrorize the paradise in various comedically ineffective ways and swan keeps reading him increasingly hyperspecific contract clauses and scolding him like a kindergartner
