The Big Picture In just under two weeks, Oscar nominee and prolific character actor June Squibb will take over the silver screen in her first-ever lead role with the action-comedy Thelma. Before it hits theaters, however, the 94-year-old star is issuing a threat to anyone who would dare interrupt her big moment by talking or texting on their phone — she has a particular set of skills, and she will destroy you.
Squibb's vengeful warning not to talk fits perfectly with the plot of Thelma. Written and directed by Josh Margolin, the film follows 93-year-old Thelma Post, who has narrowly evaded being sent to an assisted living facility by her daughter Gail and son-in-law Alan .
Since its premiere at Sundance earlier this year, Thelma has made a lot of fans out of critics. Rotten Tomatoes currently has the film at a remarkable 98% score, with Collider's Ross Bonaime similarly singing its praises in his 7/10 review.
