Ps I watched it for the feminist label, but I watched half of it and put it there. It took a year to watch the whole movie.
Kind of silly, kind of cool.
From a rational point of view, if you kill someone and go to jail, even if the reasoning is self-defense, no one will believe it, just go to jail.
But everyone went all the way to the worst ending, to the abyss of the Grand Canyon. It's still very cool, unlike "The Life of the Disgusted Matsuko", which is so aggrieved, everyone went to the worst ending, at least Thelma and Lousie chose it by themselves.
I thought that in this whole movie, all the men were villains. The result was not. In the end, there was a police officer who understood them, understood them, really cared about them, understood how women were driven to a dead end, followed behind the billowing smoke of their desperation, raised their arms and shouted. Without the sublimation of this character, the entire film would be too face-off. It is also because of this role that the little brother who stole money feels that he needs to cooperate with the police, lest he is also an accomplice in forcing these two women to a dead end.
Happily hooking up with handsome guys all the way, drinking all the way, driving all the way to travel with good friends is the liberation of women. All the annoying husbands who have been together for 7 years, the men who shot and wanted to rape, were all left behind. It's also very interesting to teach a man who has a brain on a big truck. It's this kind of reversal that makes you think I'm a good hooker, I'm going to teach you a lesson with a gun and burn your car.
Women have always been weaker than men in terms of strength. With guns to make up for this weakness, women have the absolute right to speak in terms of strength, and things become interesting.
Thelma and Lousie's personalities are complementary, and it's understandable why Thelma died with Lousie after she killed someone. On the one hand, Lousie shot that person to protect her. On the other hand, if she abandoned this friend who understood her, what was waiting for her was to go home and endure the days and nights of her irritable husband. Together with this confidant, to a certain extent, it is also to protect one's last insistence on self. Lousie will plan the overall situation and will think of taking money to go to Mexico, but because she is too strong, she will be defeated by real despair. Thelma is usually the kind of silly person who is protected by her friends. When something really big happens, because she is not that strong, she will not be so rigid that she will not break, so she will not be trapped by reality. Besides, the handsome guy taught her a way, she He also began to truly liberate himself, and he would not forget to bring wine even when he robbed. In the end, Lousie didn't know what to do in the face of the siege from the police. It was also her suggestion, so let's drive together and don't stop.
Women are strange things, usually very weak, and sometimes panicked when encountering trivial matters or stress, but research shows that they are more tolerant of pain than men. Even the weakest woman has the power of motherhood in her body. When encountering some major events, she is more calm than a man and solves it instead of collapse and despair.
