Welcome to the first part of our discussion of the genre-bending chase/buddy/crime caper film Thelma & Louise. Here we tackle recasting the film, with the titular main major characters as well as five wonderful minor characters. Along the way we tackle possible character age flips, the challenge in recasting a young Brad Pitt today, and the surprising goodness and sweetness that both Michael Madsen and Harvey Keitel brought to the original. I promise the episode won’t end the way the movie does…or will it!?!?
