Nancy: I definitely did not notice again then that Carrie was a movie folks would really feel so deeply, be affected by, and proceed to determine with 50 years later. The concept of being “the opposite” — everyone who’s a young person feels that to a small diploma.
I really feel very emotional about it as a result of it launched my profession, and I did not know I used to be assembly my future husband. I did not know that I’d go on to do all these movies with Brian that I am additionally nonetheless speaking about, which can be actually iconic.
I am thrilled that Carrie continues to be so beloved by so many individuals. If you’re making a movie, and also you’re younger, you are simply so completely happy to be working as an actor. You are not even fascinated about what it means.
Now I see how many individuals resonate with it, significantly queer audiences. My brother was homosexual, and so there’s lots of emotion related to that for me. Going to Queer Fest makes me so completely happy, as a result of I do know Chris is an icon, which I like.
I am actually honored that I used to be a part of it.
