Two women, a turquoise Thunderbird, the ride of a lifetime…it can only be 1991’s Thelma & Louise.

With this pop-culture landmark, screenwriter Callie Khouri and auteur Ridley Scott (Alien, Prometheus) rewrote the rules of the road movie, telling the story of two best friends who find themselves transformed into accidental fugitives during a weekend getaway gone wrong—leading them on a high-speed Southwest odyssey as they elude police and discover freedom on their own terms.

Propelled by irresistible performances from Susan Sarandon and Geena Davis (plus Brad Pitt in a sexy, star-making turn)—and nominated for six Academy Awards, winning one for Khouri—the exhilaratingly cathartic Thelma & Louise stands as cinema’s ultimate ode to ride-or-die female friendship.
