Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThough based on Theodore Dreiser's novel "Sister Carrie", the movie was released simply as "Carrie" because the studio feared audiences would think "Sister Carrie" was the story of a nun.
- GoofsIn the theater, when George is returning the ten dollars to Carrie, he puts the bill inside her purse in the closeup. When the camera changes angles, the bill is on the table again.
- Quotes
George Hurstwood: You still have time, Carrie. Move on now. Find someone... to love. It's a great experience, Carrie.
- Alternate versionsThe 2004 DVD version contain the deleted "flophouse" scene never seen by the audience in the US. This sequence was removed at the film release due to the political state of affairs in the US during this era. Chapter 16 contains that scene.

Featured review
What would you do for love?
Lawrence Olivier plays a man that's comfortably off in the high society of Chicago at the end of the 19th century. He'll risk everything (and I mean EVERYTHING) for the love of a young lady. Of course, if the young lady is Jennifer Jones then it really makes some sense. The family, the money, the social status... that's nothing compare with that angel face and the ingenuity of a country girl.
"Carrie" is a big time melodrama. If you think that Scarlett O'Hara had a rough time, wait and see the descent into hell of Olivier's character. The journey of Sir Laurence from the days of wine and roses to the misery and the wandering is just overwhelming... (what can you expect of one of the best actors ever??).
Don't you forget your handkerchief!
*My rate: 8/10
