** And behind the scenes, that was just something PJ Soles happened to wear to her audition and the director loved it. She recalls showing up on set and his first words to her were "did you bring the hat?"

* There's a bit where, just before the tragedy strikes, Billy and Chris are hiding under the stairs. Billy keeps pushing it open so [[DistractedByTheSexy he can watch Carrie,]] and even says [[VillainousCrush "That Carrie White, she sure is cute,]] despite his girlfriend being right next to him. It's the last bit of comic relief the movie has, which helps soften the blow a little.

* When Tommy comes to pick up Carrie, all of the floating furniture she's playing with accidentally crashes to the ground when he knocks on the door. The subsequent exchange comes off as a [[TheSimpsons steamed hams meme.]]

* When filming the scene of Miss Collins disciplining the girls, Brian [=DePalma=] had Creator/BettyBuckley off camera [[EnforcedMethodActing whispering nasty things in Amy Irving's ear to get her looking sad]] (he knew they drove to set together and thus it would sting more coming from Betty). Once that was done, Amy politely told her director that she was an actress and he could have just ''asked'' her to look sad.

* During Jesse's date with Tracy, he gets disturbed by her lack of remorse for Lisa's suicide. Afterwards, he drops her off at her house. The ''instant'' Tracy is out of the car, he takes off at full speed. The look on Tracy's face is priceless.

* Sue wants to confirm that Rachel has powers. Rather than ask her directly, she gives Rachel a "true or false" quiz, with a number of bizarre statements, leading up to "Sometimes I can move objects with my mind." Rachel is clearly off-put by the whole thing.
** One of the statements is "Large, furry animals crawl on my face every night while I sleep." Rachel answers, "True." When Sue looks concerned, Rachel deadpans, "I have a dog."

to:

* In a dark bit of humor, Margaret White pries slowly open the crack in the closet door Carrie threw her into, her hands bloody and torn-up from the spliters of wood, and reaches over to undo the lock....only to discover Carrie soldered the metal lock with her mind and now it won't move. Her expression just reads "Are you kidding me?!" after she's put forth all that effort just to be thwarted.

** He's visibly unsure of how to deal with Carrie after the shower incident, first offering her aspirin, and then juice. Miss Desjardin has to deadpan "Juice? Really, Henry?"



* Tommy tries to compare asking Carrie to prom to famous athletes like Tim Tebow doing the same. Desjardin responds with a FlatWhat.

* As the girls are getting ready for the prom, they briefly mention Sue and the twins say in unison "she looked awful" when they saw her. Of course it turns out that Sue is ''pregnant''. Talk about NoSympathy!

* While Miss Desjardin only reminisces of her first period internally in the book, here she happily starts talking about it in front of the principal. He first gasps a horrified "ten!?" when she says what age it happened at, and she takes that as the cue to go into more detail. Until she finally notices his [[TooMuchInformation expression]].
** She also quips "up until a half hour ago, Carrie White thought her first period was home room" - which the principal finds ActuallyPrettyFunny.
