‘Nashville,’ 'Thelma & Louise' Writer Callie Khouri Sells Santa Monica Home for $2.2M; Chrisina Karras Signature Style Is Also Present

Callie Khouri, "Nashville" showrunner and Oscar winner had listed her Santa Monica four-bedroom, Spanish-inspired bungalow. The California pad was on the market for $2.2 million and interested homebuyers will be living the life of celebrity interior designer Christina Karras, who gave the pink home a generous amount of her signature style.

Khouri was given an Academy Award for writing "Thelma & Louise" before switching to the small screen, where she wrote the ABC drama "Nashville" that stars Connie Britton and Hayden Panettiere. Followers of the country music soap had been enchanted by her former home as Khouri came up with the show's storyline while living under its roof, according to a feature from Realtor.com.

The Oscar winner Khouri's home boasted a roof that was made of terracotta and styled over a quirky coral-based stucco. The white walls inside gave buyers further color choices, while the red accents made a statement. With various large windows, the property never lacked for light. The vintage theme throughout the '20s-inspired pad included arching Spanish-style doors and an ornate tiled bathroom. And despite the miniature lot size, there was enough outdoor space for a yard activities. This included a wooden deck and a rustic bocce court.

Meanwhile, the iconic "Thelma and Louise" turned 25 this week. To celebrate, actresses Susan Sarandon and Geena Davis reunited on "Good Morning America."

Sarandon, who was 44 when the film was released in 1991, is now 69 while Davis is 60. Sarandon wore a silver satin bomber jacket and a pair of classy aviators while Davis sported a chic, tight, light pink dress.

Khouri's "Thelma and Louise" was a bold, exhilarating and fiercely liberating film telling the tale of two women who embarked on a getaway road trip, after Louise shot a man who had tried to rape her friend Thelma. While the film was branded controversial in the early nineties, it struck a chord with viewers and critics. It was also considered as a feminist classic, according to a feature from Image.
