Visible crew/equipment: After Thelma went off the road to avoid the police convoy and waits at a stop sign there is a reflection of the boom mike moving around on the hood. (00:47:25)

Visible crew/equipment: In the scene where Thelma & Louise pass the tanker for the last time, before they blow it up, there appears to be an image of a man visible twice near the bottom of the tanker, just before the tanker cab is shown.

Continuity mistake: At the western bar Louise is drinking a margarita. As the shot goes back and forth between Thelma & Louise, the contents of the drink magically decrease and increase again. The level of Thelma's coke rises as well, when Harlan leaves them. (00:14:00)

Question: Why does Harvey Keitel hold up his hand as he is chasing after Thelma and Louise at the end of the movie? I always felt he did it to keep the officers from shooting at them, but a friend of mine was saying he simply did it to try to get their attention so they wouldn't drive off the cliff. Any other opinions?

Chosen answer: It's just as you said; he was telling the others to hold their fire. He had no idea that they were going to drive off the cliff; his reaction was evidence of this.
