Try Google search and you will find countless cases of daughters fed up with their mothers. The latter tend to criticise everything: from clothes, through interests, friends, to boyfriends. They influence you, choose your clothes when you are a little girl, comment on your menstruation, warn you against the evil of the world: men. They have been through it all and why shouldn't you use all their knowledge and traumas to your advantage? The problem is that you rarely objectively can look at your mother; the emotional baggage of past memories makes it difficult to flee from the influence of the one who gave birth to you. Equally hard is to survive the abuse, mean comments, and growing up in the hostile environment of the school. Unless you have supernatural powers and can get a revenge on everybody who wronged you. A secret wish of many hurt school girls, a dangerous power in a seemingly innocent, indoctrinated little girl. And two (1976 and 2013) film adaptations of Stephen King's novel. Look how little has changed despite the passing of time. What stayed the same is even that little evil desire of murder and destruction we all have when they mock us for whatever the reason. Enjoy.

On the nature of pictures

*Every Google image belongs to someone and this someone should be noted. However, if pictures are scenes from the film they most probably belong to owners of the film/producers. I use saved screens of the Google compilation of pictures, thus the pictures of pictures, which I take, cut and edit myself (as a derivative use). They are used for reviewing purposes (fair use), not for diminishing the films' profits by stealing what rightly belongs to them. Copyright is tricky, let's get used to it.
