why insisting on faking rain


On an obvious sunny day..?? Really stupid filming choice by the DP

When?

reply

It happens a couple of times. Two very obvious ones, when the cops arrive to tap the phone at Thelma's house and when Thelma & Louise are at the Oklahoma City motel. The first one is really grating too, there's bright sunshine and yet there's a huge amount of rain coming down. I know it's possible for weather like that to occur, but here it looks horribly fake.

Never heard of sun showers? There are many weaker points in this film to pick apart.

lol, i noticed that too.

I agree. I think they did this so Darryl could say "wipe your feet", even though his place was a pig sty.
