Summary

"Thelma" had its world premiere at the 2024 Sundance Film Festival, where it received positive reviews for Academy Award-nominee June Squibb's performance, her chemistry with the late Richard Rountree, the parody style of action filmmaking and its sweet center of the relationship between a grandparent and grandchild. Director/Writer Josh Margolin was kind enough to speak with us about his work on the film, which you can listen to below. Please be sure to check out the film, which is now playing in limited release from Magnolia Pictures. Thank you, and enjoy! Check out more on NextBestPicture.com Please subscribe on...
