Corrine (the mother) was played by Victoria Tennant, who was once married to Steve Martin. Louise Fletcher played the over-religious grandmother, Lindsay Parker played Carrie, and Brooke Fries was the flower girl at the wedding.

Answer: The grandmother cuts it off with large scissors.

In the movie, the grandmother locks Chris and the twins out of the room, and attacks Cathy with scissors. Later Chris is let back in, and finds her huddled on the bathroom floor. He tries his best to repair the hack job, but it just looks like a bad wig.

In the book the grandmother pours black tar in it while she is sleeping, and Chris makes a mixture to try to soften it, before cutting off the front of her hair.

Answer: Three

Chris, Carrie, and Cathy left at the end of the movie, after the mother dies. The grandfather and Cory had died earlier. The grandmother stays in the house, and watches them leave, through an upstairs window.

Answer: No

Carrie and Cathy were in one bed, and Cory and Chris were in another. The grandmother would make surprise early visits, to try to catch the girls and boys in the same bed.

Answer: Green

The society "ball" was where Chris and Carrie watched her accept a diamond ring from Bart. In the book it was already an engagement party. In a later book Cathy wears an identical dress.

Answer: Fred

In the movie the mouse's name was Fred. In the book the kids always named everything with a name starting with a "C", except for the mouse, which was named Mickey. I don't know why they changed such a minor detail from the book to the movie.

Answer: True

The children were told that after the grandfather died they would have all of their dreams come true. In the movie they found the will and introduced themselves to the wedding guests. In the book they just left, and Cathy sought revenge later.

Answer: A doctor.

After discovering books and a microscope Chris wanted to be a doctor, especially after Cory died. Cathy wanted to be a dancer. In the book Cory was a musician and wrote songs.

Answer: He died from arsenic poisoning.

The mother mixed arsenic and powdered sugar, and sprinkled the powder on cookies that the children were given everyday. Her plan was to slowly kill off each child, so she could inherit the money, with no worries about anyone discovering that she had children.

The cookies were left in the kitchen to be picked up and put on the cart. Cory was the first victim from the cookies. In the book the arsenic was put on donuts.

Answer: False

In the movie the grandmother did not attend the wedding, and Corrine was at the altar when Cathy, Chris, and Carrie walked up the aisle. Cathy tried to get Corrine to eat part of a cookie with arsenic on it, and in the struggle Corrine fell to her death, strangled by her veil and dress. In the book the wedding did not take place as in the movie, and Corrine did not die.
