--------------

We've been doing our Monthly Movie Club for more than a year now, and it's been so popular, that we've decided to add to what we're offering...

(Yes, we will still be playing "nostalgic" movie throwbacks once a month--mostly movies from the 1980s, '90s, and early 2000s. Those events will still encourage you to dress up in a costume to match the movie's theme, and we will still have wonderful treats provided by Kilwins. And yes, even though those movies are free, we're going to be taking donations that fit a local cause on theme with that night's movie.)

However, we are now going to be offering a more laid-back GARDEN CLASSIC MOVIE CLUB once a month, as well! (No dressing up necessary, no treats, no fundraising.)

These will be movies that are older--think 1930s through 1970s. So far, we have shown:

--------------

Carrie is a 1976 American supernatural horror film, directed by Brian De Palma from a screenplay written by Lawrence D. Cohen and adapted from Stephen King's 1974 novel "Carrie." The film stars Sissy Spacek as Carrie White, a shy teenage girl who is constantly mocked and bullied at her school. She later develops the power of telekinesis and uses it to wreak vengeance on her tormentors. The film also features Piper Laurie, Amy Irving, Nancy Allen, William Katt, P. J. Soles, Betty Buckley, and John Travolta in supporting roles. It is the first film in the Carrie franchise.

The film was based on King's first published novel. De Palma was intrigued by the story and pushed for the studio's permission to direct, while Spacek was encouraged by her husband to audition. It is the first of more than 100 film, television, and theater productions adapted from, or based on, the published works of King.

Theatrically released on November 3, 1976, by United Artists, Carrie became critically and commercially successful, grossing more than $33.8 million against its $1.8 million budget. 

It received two nominations at the 49th Academy Awards: Best Actress (for Spacek) and Best Supporting Actress (for Laurie). 

Critics and audience members alike widely cite it as the best adaptation of the novel, among the numerous films and television shows based on the character, as well as one of the best films based on King's publications.

The film has significantly influenced popular culture, with several publications regarding it as one of the greatest horror films ever made. 

In 2008, Carrie was ranked 86th on Empire's list of The 500 Greatest Movies of All Time; it was ranked 15th on Entertainment Weekly's list of the 50 Best High School Movies; and 46th on the American Film Institute list AFI's 100 Years...100 Thrills. 

The film's prom scene has had a major influence on popular culture and was ranked eighth on Bravo's 2004 program The 100 Scariest Movie Moments. 

In 2022, the film was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant."
