- Sorry but they really do all look alike. Perhaps the remake of Thelma and
- Louise could go like this. T and L survive the crash but are horribly
- disfigured and suffer from amnesia. Unrecognizable as women, the paramedics
- find the driver's licenses of two patrons of the minute mart which Thelma had
- taken when she robbed the place. Mistaking t and l for the unfortunate
- gentlemen pictured on the driver's licenses, the hapless but loveable plastic
- surgeon works feverishly to restore their countenances (and other body parts)
- to their original forms. The police are confused. Thelma and Louise are
- confused. Having completed a masterful job, the surgeon, played by part-time
- cabana boy Matt Dillon, releases the two, played now by Tom Tyron and John
- Gavin. Thelma and Louise go on to become a sucessful diplomat and author
- respectively, While their professional lives soar, unfortunately they are
- woefully incompetent at personal relationships with women and have great
- difficulty sharing their feelings. Something is missing. They read Iron
- John. They join an all male encounter group where the beat on a drum and smoke
- and become one with their feelings. They remember their former identities,
- feel a momentary loss and laugh heartily at their good fortune. As the credits
- role, they are eagerly dialing a 900 number.

- Move over Oliver Stone.
