film review Thelma & louise

THELMA & LOUISE

Synopsis : Geena Davis and Susan Sarandon play Thelma and Louise, two working-class friends who together have planned a weekend getaway from the men in their lives. Thelma's husband, Darryl is an overbearing oaf, and Louise's boyfriend, Jimmy simply will not commit. Though the road trip starts out as a good time, the pair eventually wind up at a bar. A tipsy Thelma ends up in the parking lot of the bar with a would-be rapist. Louise shoots the man dead. The two decide that they have no choice but to go on the run.

They eventually meet up with a young criminal named J.D. (Brad Pitt), whose cowboy spirit rubs off on the timid Thelma. The pair is pursued by a police officer sympathetic toward their plight. He chases them to the Grand Canyon, where the women make a fateful decision about their lives.

Directed by the famous director Ridley Scott, this iconic and feminist road trip movie claims the freedom of the woman by the different types of men that Thelma and Louise have to handle, and how Thelma and Louise get hurt because of them. Funny, heartbreaking it is a well-acted road movie who celebrate the female empowerment.

 I really recommend this movie, because even if it was release in 1991, the vintage feeling is really comfortable. I really like this movie because anybody can feel close to the 2 mains characters Thelma and Louise. Watch it and enjoy if you like american road trip and freedom !!!
