This week’s Classic Movies Live is for all the seniors in the audience! We’re talking about Thelma, the action-comedy starring June Squibb and Richard Roundtree that took Sundance 2024 by storm!
In Josh Margolin’s feature directorial debut, Thelma (Squibb) teams up with her old friend Ben (Roundtree) to get $10.000 back from a phone scammer, in a bid to prove that she’s perfectly capable of living independently at the ripe youngg age of 93.
Thelma is a rare story about finding your way after nearly a century of life, almost a coming-of-age, but long after the age has already come. So how does it resonate with our much younger hosts? Tune in for our (spoiler-light) thoughts!
