    I love what Susan Sarandon said about men. She is totally on point. Such a beautiful and gentle woman. Thelma & Louise is definitely on my personal top 10 movies of all time. I used to watch this film a few times a year on VHS back in the day to keep me sane. The woman in the audience who stumbled with her question was trying to get at that point a little I feel like. Before MeToo was Thelma & Louise for a lot of small town girls and women.

    It was Michelle Pfeiffer that suggested to Ridley Scott that he direct “Thelma and Louise”. He confirmed that to be true. Michelle Pfeiffer and Jodie Foster we’re both signed onto play Thelma and Louise for a very long time. The project took so long to move into production they eventually dropped out to do other films.
    Pfeiffer invited Ridley Scott to have lunch with her. She told him she loves Thelma and Louise but will not be able to star in it. And then she said why don’t you just come to your senses and snap out of it and direct the film yourself. He said that got him thinking. When he left the lunch and drove home he realized she was right. He should just do it. He understands these women and how to make a film about it. That’s trivia that Susan Sarandon and Geena Davis wouldn’t know as they came on after Michelle and Jodie dropped out.

    • @vickster4474
      @vickster4474 Місяць тому +4

      My gosh, I'm glad that happened because I cannot imagine anyone else in those roles, and cannot imagine Michelle and Jodie in them at all. I enjoyed many films with both of them in them too so it's not that I think they are bad actors, just not suited to that pairing.

    • @andriottijunior
      @andriottijunior 27 днів тому +1

      I don't think "he understands these women and how to make a film about it" because it's very clear to me that there were a lot of times he didn't know exactly what to do with the script or with the characters. That's why he did listen to Susan or Geena, otherwise it would have turned into a crap. It was a low budget movie, any of them had any great expectations about it and maybe he wasn't really caring about the results since he just wanted a movie where "they blow up a truck". Any of them had nothing to lose, so each one of them did their best to make it work somehow. Of course Ridley had a huge importance as a director mainly on how to put all the pieces together to develop a compelling storytelling with so much (random) material on his hand. But the core of it all definitely were both of them.

    I normally love Susan Sarandon both as an actress and when she's being interviewed. However, she seems "off" in this one. First of all, she hogs every question and seems curmudgeonly. Something has changed about her. Geena on the other hand is gracious, warm, and brings a "light" to the interview. Thank you, Geena!

    • @chezraye21

    At the same time period this movie came out I was also a victim of ongoing CSA.
    I remember being absolutely terrified by the scene where the man hit and tore Thelma’s (?) clothes off.
    My mother saw my reaction and as a boy back then, I was terrified that being a victim would mean my parents and particularly my mean older brother would accuse me of being gay. That scene had a huge impact on me.

    I loved the advice Susan gave and she was spot on about some males not being comfortable being emotionally open etc. and it’s so true when the man shuts down it causes damage to the woman. I had to leave my then bf because of a shutdown not even talking it really hurts so for any man or woman for that matter who finds themselves in a situation like that please communicate.

    To think how Thelma and Louise was one of my favorite movies while I was still in Kindergarten at 6 years old, back in 1992. My parents were aware of how much my wisdom prevented me from using profanity as well as violating rules in other ways. Exceptional movie production though.

    They are incredible. It's interesting that Ridley Scott always gets all the kudos for the movie, like: "oh, how visionary he was!", "oh, he had such a sensibility", "oh, he was so clever"... When in fact, most of the crucial decisions were made or pointed by both Susan or Geena. Seems to me that the first drafts or even the final script were really bad. I mean, it had potential, but it couldn't tell exactly where it would be going.
