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)
Thelma and Louise (1991)
Directed by: Ridley Scott
Starring: Brad Pitt, Susan Sarandon, Harvey Keitel, Michael Madsen, Geena Davis
Visible crew/equipment: Louise's sunglasses reflect equipment in several scenes, for example the camera when they drive to Oklahoma, or stage lighting when they wait at the train crossing. (00:33:25 - 00:41:55)
Visible crew/equipment: When Thelma and Louise follow the tank truck with the horny driver a crew car is reflected in the tank instead of Louise's convertible. (01:14:00)
Trivia: After winning the role, Geena Davis read with four other actors who were auditioning for J.D. One was Brad Pitt, who ended up being cast. The others were Grant Show, Mark Ruffalo, and George Clooney.
Louise: Look, Thelma, you just gotta stop talking to people. You gotta stop being so open. We're fugitives now, all right? Let's start behaving like that.
Louise: Well, we're not in the middle of nowhere, but we can see it from here.
Question: Why does Harvey Keitel hold up his hand as he is chasing after Thelma and Louise at the end of the movie? I always felt he did it to keep the officers from shooting at them, but a friend of mine was saying he simply did it to try to get their attention so they wouldn't drive off the cliff. 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.
Answer: It's the 1941 film "Penny Serenade".
