Xiahou Shake 10/08/18 7:54:05 PM #7:	Day 3: Carrie (1976) Premise: Social outcast Carrie White gets invited to the high school prom. ~~Things go badly.~~ My first time: No Alright, in an attempt to wash out the taste of Day 2s green shit, I popped in one of my favorites! Carrie is an absolute best-in-class movie when it comes to build-up. Exaggerated personalities of some of the characters aside, nothing too crazy is happening for the majority of the movie, but the story is so well-paced and so peppered with things to get you invested that it works fantastically as it leads up to one of the craziest pay-offs Ive ever seen. Thats all I can say about this without spoilers so seriously, do yourself a favor and watch this if you havent. Okay, what absolutely makes this movie is how insanely impactful the big moment is. Carries growth is amazing in this movie shes downright pitiable at the start and seeing her slowly blossom, stand up to her abusive mother and have a great time at prom is all incredible. One of my favorite things about the prom itself before everything goes nuts is the camera work. The insanely long, continuous shot as Carrie walks in for the first time is great, but theres another moment that really blows me away here. Its when Carrie and Tommy are making their way on to the dance floor. As they walk out, you can see a lot of dirty looks and negativity coming from the people around them, but as they move and start to dance, the camera naturally works its way to a lower shot, so that all you can see is Carrie and Tommy having a great time. Carries walk up to be crowned prom queen is such a powerful moment. The music, the camera work, the acting everything is PERFECTLY showing that this is the best moment of this girls life. Even though you know things are about to go to shit, you wish, you PRAY that they dont, because youve come to care for this girl and she deserves to be happy, damn it. But then everything goes south. The bucket falling, the shock and awe of it all and the madness that follows is in my opinion THE most explosive moment in cinema history, just for how utterly insane it is compared to everything else in the movie. The whiplash from high school drama to the unceasing whirlwind of death and horror is unbelievable. No matter how many times I watch this movie, it blows me away all over again each time. Next time: No more clowning around --- Let the voice of love take you higher, With this gathering power, go beyond even time! <cite>Xiahou Shake posted [p:910196217] in I'm wa...
