![]() ![]() Carrie appeared to suffer from bipolar disorder, or possibly post-traumatic stress disorder.Ĭarrie was a fractured young soul, in need of support and love, but it was only handed to her in small amounts, and at a very high cost. She was portrayed to be a loner, shown also as a shy and timid young woman with no confidence. Throughout her story in both the book and the movie, Carrie's first persona was a humble one. Thus giving her two separate characters that dwell inside of her inner psyche, like a second twin of the opposite or split personality. Margaret was left all alone to give birth to her daughter in her own home, whom she named Carrietta, the girl better known as Carrie.Ĭarrie has two faces, one being the victim and the other being the villain she transforms into. ![]() ![]() Carrie's father eventually left her mother when he got another woman pregnant, and died shortly after.

She was portrayed by actress Sissy Spacek in the classic 1976 film, Angela Bettis (and Jodelle Ferland as a child) in the 2002 made-for-TV movie, Chloe Grace Moretz in the 2013 remake and in the original 1988 musical by stage singer and performer Linzi Hately. The true villains who are strictly the antagonists throughout the entire plot are her worst enemy Chris Hargensen, the sociopathic and popular school bully with a wealthy lawyer father, and her severely mentally ill mother Margaret White, a religious and abusive fundamentalist.
