(Not quite sure when the Thelma & Louise edit will hit youtube, but we loved it so much we just had to share it with you now!)
Comments
One of the greatest road trip films of all time. A tragically beautiful meditation from the female gaze on the power of strong female friendship, the dangerβs we face just being a woman in this world, platonic love, personal fulfillment and what it means to not just be alive, but to truly live. Itβs a film where once you see it, it stays with you forever. β€οΈ

2025-06-09 12:31:41 +0000 UTCI love this movie. Also agree about the Brad Pitt comments. I thought even without seeing it you probably knew what happens at the end because itβs so iconic, so it was a treat to see how gagged you were. BFFβs til the end!

2025-05-11 16:03:12 +0000 UTCI love this movie. I think it's incredibly brave, strange, and visionary, and I love the journey it gives Thelma and Louise as women. My one complaint about Thelma and Louise is the one single logistical plot point that drives me bonkers: It's when Louise's boyfriend Jimmy (oh, pretty Michael Madsen in his prime) brings her her money β they're at the dive motel, and Louise hands THELMA her life savings in cash and says, "Now, you guard this money." Thelma takes Louise's cash and of course is then seduced and robbed by J.D. But why does Louise say "guard this money," when it's LOUISE'S own money? Guard it from who? Louise? Further, even sweet, dumb Thelma wouldn't leave the cash on the bedside table when she goes to breakfast with Louise, knowing J.D. is a thief. The only reason Louise hands Thelma her life savings is because the script needs that to happen so that the two women are trapped and the final act can start (with Thelma's convenience store robbery). So that will always bug me. I wish Callie Khouri had come up with another less obvious option. Like maybe Louise gets the money from Jimmy but J.D. steals it in a sleight of hand, either when they're at breakfast (a trip to the bathroom with her purse), or when she goes to the car, etc. Or he even straight-up charmingly (apologetically) robs them in the diner or in the car, just like he robbed the convenience stores. This would have also added heft to Thelma doing the exact same thing in the next scene, etc. But despite my wall of text, this is a minor thing for me in the big picture. I love the movie -- thank you for the wonderful reaction!

2024-07-28 14:11:50 +0000 UTCI hadnβt seen this movie in so long that I thought Brad Pitt was the dude that they killed. I had completely blocked out that r*pe scene. π€¦π»ββοΈ

2024-07-28 03:27:57 +0000 UTCI haven't seen this in forever and it was great watching it with you bothπ. Sarandon and Davis are both flawless in this, and watching it again now I think Geena Davis really should have won the Oscar, her performance has everything.

2024-07-26 01:58:26 +0000 UTCSuch a good movie! I am shocked that you weren't spoiled on the ending even though you hadn't seen it. Glad- but shocked. It's iconic.
