happy and desperate

The translated name is really good. After "The Beautiful Legend of Sicily", there is another translation that translates people's names so closely to the direction of the movie.

I like the cuteness of Thelma excitedly pointing at the strawberry on her collarbone. Although Louise always wanted to scold her for being unsatisfactory, she was really sweet at that moment.

I like the corners of Louise's mouth rising and stepping on the gas pedal hard. I don't know how many girls have secretly imitated the standard Louise-style smoking.

I like that Thelma robbed the store with a gun and pretended to be professional to let everyone get down on the ground, and when she left, she said good morning to everyone, still as gentle as a little girl.

Like Louise being angry and hysterical and righteous, whether it's neurotic or really deterrent, anyway, Thelma does exactly what she does every time.

But this film is by no means cute. Thelma mentioned her husband's clip. For example, as soon as she heard the other party's "Hello" in a normal tone, she knew that she must have been monitored. It can be seen how difficult it is to live normally, but this is the case. He didn't forget to leave food and a note for him in the microwave when he left. (Louise: pig!)

Jimmy loves Louise and wants to catch up with his peers recklessly, to propose and take possession. Louise loved how he didn't tell him the truth and didn't involve him. The ring came a little late. A meticulous woman like Louise must consider the pros and cons before considering whether to love or not. "Jimmy isn't an option." On this road, there is no option to fall back, and doing plan B itself is not fair to him. Rings are very valuable, so give them to those who need money. In fact, what Jimmy has done is really good. He didn't tell anyone where Louise and money are going, and many others may have long ago complained to their friends about how their lover made him work hard and work hard.

As for Hal, most of them want to protect them, and the policeman from the continent also sympathized with his wife and children. Maybe in their eyes, it is normal for women to be used to sell miserable or even trampled, and they need to be grateful for occasional protection.

But Thelma&Louise, they just don't give a shit.

A road movie, it's happy, but it can't hide the despair. The little girlfriends on vacation happily sat in the convertible sports car, took out the Polaroid and took a photo, and they were beautiful and happy. Then they fled all the way in the sand, gravel and dust. At the end of the film, the colors on the two of them have dimmed a lot, but Thelma's smile is still firm, and Louise's hand holding the cigarette is still calm.

At the end of the film, they are flying in the Grand Canyon, and the camera cuts to when they are about to go out, they are so bright and colorful. Suddenly there is a feeling of darkness and flowers, which is very touching and very regrettable.

It wasn't just a Harlan who made them doomed.

    Finally, the Thunderbird, which was produced in 1966, flew down from the canyon, which moved people. Both women, they could only keep going forward and could not turn back. The life after turning back is daunting, and the life after turning back is controlled by others. Manipulative, they yearn for freedom, and they enjoy the uninhibited life they have now. So, they chose to fly to death and fly in death.
