Sue Snell

I don't get it. According to IMDB Sue Snell is played by an actress named Gabriella Wilde. Wilde is a white girl. Straight blond hair. Intense blue eyes. And young. The actress who identifies herself as Sue Snell in the beginning of Carrie is African-American, black curly hair, amazing pale green eyes, and, if truth be told, just a bit old to playing a high school girl. What do I have wrong? Does Sue Snell go through a huge identity change halfway through the picture? That wasn't in the Steven King novel. That I recall. I guess I should finish the picture.

Sue was never portrayed in the novel as a black girl tho I did like the change in the 2002 version.

Bump.

I discovered this on Facebook, and could you imagine this happening? It's essentially a "what if" scenario; in this case, of Sue's baby daughter somehow "inheriting" Carrie's powers:

I suggest you re-read the book. Man, all these people coming in here and whining about this and that and simply cannot wrap their heads around the fact that Sue Snell identifies as an African-American.

I love you, Kristen Stewart. :) You are so beautiful and talented. I would love to perform with you.

Never could understand why someone in the middle of watching a film, breaks off to post on the internet. I don't know why, but I get to thinking just what kind of lovers these people make...
