Wow. This one left us a little heartbroken for our title character, Carrie (1976). The Babes explore the response to puberty, spiritual abuse within the home and the consequences of somewhat well-intentioned faculty intervention. We analyze the way society dealt with certain issues in the 1970’s and the ways that would NOT fly in 2023 and Carrie White deserved better. The glowy hue combined with high school rage made us feel uneasy and sad for these characters.
People fear what they don’t know and they definitely misunderstood Carrie.
TW: This episode discusses verbal and physical abuse and animal harm.
