Yes, I can imagine that would be a sort of breaking point or how you'd say it. You have to empathize with Carrie for the movie to be effective.

I happily disagree and thought the casting was great. You could say much the same thing about The Lord of the Rings. I like that people try to get actors right for the parts rather than actors who will simply draw a large audience to the cinemas.
