"Thelma and Louise" changed my life really. Because of the reaction people had to the movie. When we were making it we had no idea it would be anything at all. It was a small budget film and hardly anyone had wanted to do it.
This lack of good role models for women, and especially for girls who need to see what they can be in order to have those dreams and ambitions, is something that has concerned Geena and many of us for quite some time.
