DESCRIPTION
Nearly every major element of making the film Thelma & Louise (1991) is examined here from how the script was written to how Ridley Scott got involved, to how the big tanker explosion was pulled off. Some funny stories are shared and some great trivia as to what was improvised on set and actually left in the film.
Sinopsis by IMDBHelmer Pierre-Alain Meier has fashioned here with co-scripters Lou Inglebert, Jacques Akchoti and Barbara Sobeck an intriguing road movie focusing on the shifting lives of complex characters. Proving himself adept at juggling difficult emotional elements, tyro helmer Pierre-Alain Meier applies considerable sobriety to the potentially explosive sexual drama "Thelma."
A drama that studies the after-effects caused by a person who is transgender: the jealousies, confusions and conflicts.
Zurich cabby Vincent (Tavernier vet Laurent Schilling) has enough troubles without Thelma (Pascale Ourbih). She immediately strikes Vincent as someone different (a character that would be right at home in Rainer Werner Fasbinder's films) and has just been dumped by her older lover, Pierre (Francois Germond).
Thelma feels deceived by Pierre, claiming that he promised her trips and more, and wants to exact revenge with Vincent's help by going to the man's Crete residence and demanding cash. Vincent appears at first to be the perfect sop for her schemes since he's somewhat rootless and finds the troubled femme alluring. (Schilling presents masterful shades of ambiguity and puzzlement.)
But after a trip across the Italian border in Pierre's stolen car, Vincent freaks out when discovering Thelma's he-she endowment. This is the first of three crises that Meier and cast handle deftly with understatement. His camera is a fluent, observant mid-range that, along with the road movie aspect, recalls early Wim Wenders.
Everything in the film works against Thelma becoming an easy object of concern or misplaced sympathy. Indeed, in rookie thesp Ourbih's courageous hands, she is downright obnoxious and infuriatingly unpredictable, placing Vincent in an increasingly difficult position.
Pic ends on an oddly weak coda, but thesping is sometimes extraordinary, with a low-key manner rendering brief emotional blowups all the more powerful.
Lensing and overall production are sharp, while Calexico's accordion music is an ideal on-the-road accompaniment.
