In a gripping turn of events, Thelma and Louise’s two day vacation turns into life on the run when Louise shoots the man who tries to rape Thelma. This high energy film features a star-studded cast, including Susan Sarandon as the fiery waitress Louise, Geena Davis as the meek housewife Thelma, and others such as Harvey Keitel and Brad Pitt. Winning both an Academy Award and Golden Globe for Best Screenplay by Callie Khouri, Thelma & Louise uses explosive action to tell a poignant story of friendship and feminism. Special conversation with Polly Carl on “The End of Feminism: The Cultural Impact of Thelma and Louise” following the APR 05 @ 6pm screening!
