Thelma & Louise [DVD] [1991]

I had heard that this film was groundbreaking for women's empowerment, but I must have watched it too late. I found it difficult to watch and felt uncomfortable during the attempted rape scene. As the film progressed, I couldn't relate to the behavior of the two women. Ultimately, it wasn't what I was looking for in a movie and I couldn't finish watching it. Perhaps its age made it less appealing to me now. However, at least now I understand what others are talking about when they reference this film, which helps me follow conversations better. On a positive note, I did enjoy the "Jeez Louise" part - that alone made buying the DVD worthwhile and improved my understanding of certain conversations as well. There might be other good moments later on in the film, but unfortunately, I just can't bring myself to continue watching it. Apologies for not being able to fully appreciate it.

I recently watched the film on TV. My neighbors affectionately refer to my friend and me as Thelma and Louise because we frequently cruise around in her convertible with the top down. Since she hadn't seen the film, I decided to surprise her by purchasing the DVD. I'm assuming that the DVD offers a similar enjoyable experience as the original film.
