9. Becky Aikman, Off the Cliff
《无与伦比》贝基·艾克曼
It's been over 25 years since the release of Thelma and Louise, the ground-breaking female buddy film hailed for its comedy, stark visual effects and shocking, off-the-cliff ending. Drawing upon some 130 interviews, Aikman tracks the film from 1987, when Callie Khouri from Paducah, Kentucky, a line producer on music videos, concocts the script, to Oscar night 1992, when six nominations yield Khouri an Academy Award. She weaves the film into Hollywood history, and gives a delicious blow-by-blow account, including Ridley Scott's efforts to find the location for that ending, and the early casting of Jodie Foster and Michelle Pfeiffer (in the roles that went to Geena Davis and Susan Sarandon), and Billy Baldwin as the sexy hitchhiker instead of a young newcomer named Brad Pitt.

距《末路狂花》上映已经过去超过25年，这部开拓性的女性犯罪电影以其幽默的剧情、对比鲜明的视觉效果以及精彩震撼的结局而备受好评。艾克曼在本书中参考了大约130次访谈，从1987年开始纪录这部电影，影片编剧卡莉·克里来自肯塔基州帕迪尤卡市，那时她还是一名音乐录影带的预算控制制片。1992年，该片获得了6项奥斯卡提名并为克里赢得了一座奖杯。她将这部电影与好莱坞历史交织在一起，还收录了一段段有趣而详尽的个人陈述，其中包括雷利·史考特为影片结尾找到合适场地而付出的努力，最初试镜的朱迪·福斯特和米歇尔·法伊弗（他们的角色最终由吉娜·戴维斯和苏珊·萨兰登饰演），以及替代“小鲜肉”布拉德·皮特出演性感搭车人的比利·鲍德温。（来源：企鹅出版社）
