The end of the wild flower, in full bloom under gender oppression

•The one-of-a-kind model female road movie?, the pioneer of female consciousness awakening. Thirty years later, a sufficiently influential discussion of the subject is still scarce. The drawbacks caused by gender discrimination are not one-way after all. As a man, the bullying encountered in communication is almost pervasive, which is equally unpleasant. Like "You are a man, you shouldn't be like this, you are like this, you really don't look like a man...". If you comment more, you may be accused of being too sensitive and talking too much. From the foundation of communication, you will be subconsciously suppressed by the group. From this, you can empathize with the suppression of women in career promotion. Women are not allowed to do more, and men are not allowed to talk too much. The reason why the group subconscious formed over thousands of years is not easy to improve is because, as the song of the same name sings: "My enemy is the daily life", whether it is intentional or not. Oppression is almost everywhere in life. I am very grateful to have such a dedicated film and television team to polish such a good work and give us the courage to stop being silent and speak out bravely when we are treated unfairly!

    You know how many women are being bullied by others. You also need to know how many women are independent and fighting back.

    Three and a half stars; they'd rather leap into nothingness than hypocrisy; although the tragic ending is a little more idealistic, the sheriff's presence is redundant and deliberate; few women have real friendships, and I'm surprised they didn't push each other away The homicide is to blame; Thelma's mindlessness is annoying, and the later twist is what's really called a road movie - seeing the character grow.

Thelma & Louise quotes

  • Louise: In the future, when a woman's crying like that, she isn't having any fun!

  • Louise: [as Harlan is starting to rape Thelma, Louise puts a gun to the back of his head] You let her go, you fuckin' asshole, or I'm gonna splatter your ugly face all over this nice car!

    Harlan: [letting Thelma go, as Louise presses the gun harder into his neck] All right, hey, hey, hey, just calm down. We were just having a little fun, that's all.

    Louise: Looks like you got a real fucked-up idea of fun.

    [the two women back away several steps]

    Louise: Turn around. In the future, when a woman's crying like that, she isn't having any fun!

    Harlan: [the women turn and walk away] Bitch! I shoulda gone ahead and fucked her!

    Louise: What did you say?

    Harlan: I said suck my cock.

    Louise: [Louise shoots him]

    Thelma: Oh, my God. Oh, my God.

    Louise: Get the car.

    Thelma: Oh, Jesus Christ. Louise, you shot him. Oh, my God.

    Louise: Get the car.

    Louise: [looking down at Harlan, in a soft but angry voice] You watch your mouth, buddy!
