Narrative
When 93-year-old Thelma Post is tricked by a phone scammer posing as her grandson, she embarks on a treacherous adventure across town to reclaim what was taken from her… .A clip showing the real Thelma watching the trees and yelling, "What a ghost!" similar to her movie counterpart is played at the end of the film.. Featured in Amanda’s The Jedi Show: THE BEST and Weirdest Movies You (Mostly) Haven’t Seen Yet | Love Lies Bleeding (2024).
She is 81 years old and in pretty good shape, aside from the usual problems of wear and tear
Some Enchanted Evening Written by Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II Performed by Ted Post Courtesy of Thelma Post. "Thelma" gives June Squibb and the late Richard Roundtree the chance to turn in some fun performances in the rare film that prominently features adult characters without patronizing them. The central relationship in the film is between a young man and his grandmother, but I saw a lot of my mother in Thelma.
Slowly depleting from a sedentary lifestyle, she would say she carries a risk
She has mobility issues and said it would be tempting to sit on the couch all day watching TV, but she pushes herself to stay active and independent. As a result, she’s doing pretty well and I know that if she had a choice between going out and moving and risking injury or overdoing it. I don’t blame her, as I think I would feel the same way."Thelma" understands what it’s like to be children trying to care for an elderly parent.
But then you’re taking away the very thing that helps them stay sharp and healthy, even though you mean well
You want to let them be independent, but you also know that whatever happens to them as a result will fall on you, so you do things for them and warn them not to try to do too much on their own. It’s a crappy position, and it’s no wonder studies show that 40-year-olds are the least satisfied with life than any other decade since the characters played by Parker Posey and Clark Gregg in this movie, because I’m not a parent at all .
