10/10
a great film
4 April 1999
Warning: Spoilers
This is one of my all time favorite movies, for many reasons. The first is obvious: the cast. It's too bad even though Susan Sarandon and Geena Davis were both nominated for Oscars that both of them couldn't win. I think they both deserved it. Their performances are the strongest things about the movie. And the supporting cast is also great, especially Harvey Kietel. I also like seeing Stephen Tobolowski (Stephen who?). And I love the ending. Unlike most people, who thinks it's sad, I can't imagine them ending it any other way. If Thelma and Louise had been caught, that would have sucked. But if they had gotten away from the cops, it would have seemed contrived and unoriginal. But having them drive off the cliff was the best possible way to end it. It was very liberating and freeing to see them make a decision and end it on their terms. My score-10.
