Continuity mistake: At the western bar Louise is drinking a margarita. As the shot goes back and forth between Thelma & Louise, the contents of the drink magically decrease and increase again. The level of Thelma's coke rises as well, when Harlan leaves them. (00:14:00)

Trivia: Struggling actor George Clooney auditioned five times for the part of JD before it went to another unknown actor (Pitt).
Question: Why does Harvey Keitel hold up his hand as he is chasing after Thelma and Louise at the end of the movie?

Any other opinions?

Chosen answer: It's just as you said; he was telling the others to hold their fire. He had no idea that they were going to drive off the cliff; his reaction was evidence of this.
