Scene from the film "Thelma and Louise" (1991)


I wanted to teach a lesson about the idea of "friendship", and when I searched around, this film came up. The film is also touches on many other subjects and themes including standing up to (male) authority and (expected) societal roles of/attitudes toward women. Moreover, the cinematography of this particular clip is very well shot and is full of romantic (theory not love/lust etc.) icons (e.g. riding out into the vast, unknown frontier). Note that this scene includes strong, adult language and is perhaps not suitable for children.
