What’s being screened
On 8 October 2026, Cines Lys brings back «Thelma & Louise», the 1991 film directed by Ridley Scott. This re-release celebrates the 35th anniversary of a movie that became a cinema landmark, both for its storytelling and cultural impact. Written by Callie Khouri—winner of the Oscar for Best Original Screenplay—the film follows Thelma Dickinson (Geena Davis), a housewife trapped in an oppressive marriage, and Louise Sawyer (Susan Sarandon), a waitress dreaming of a more stable life. What starts as an escape trip turns into a dramatic and symbolic flight, exploring themes like freedom, female friendship, and breaking free from societal expectations.

The screening will take place at 19:30 in original version with Spanish subtitles (VOSE). According to the cinema’s schedule, the event is part of a block running from 19:30 to 22:00, suggesting an approximate runtime of 2 hours and 10 minutes for the film, including closing credits. It has not been confirmed whether there will be an introduction, discussion, or additional material before or after the screening.

A classic with a legacy
«Thelma & Louise» is one of those films that transcends its time. Released in 1991, it sparked debates about its portrayal of violence, female autonomy, and the search for freedom. Directed by Ridley Scott and starring Susan Sarandon and Geena Davis, the film has been the subject of analysis, tributes, and references in popular culture. This re-release is a chance to rediscover it on the big screen, in its original version and a format that honours its essence.
