In the '91 classic. Thelma And Louise. There is an white camera.

Looks like some sort of Polaroid.

What is the name of that camera?

It's a Polaroid type 600 box camera

Specifically, it's the Polaroid Cool Cam. This model was not actually white, but grey with pink front plates and a pink strap. Although the pink front isn't visible in the video, you can see the pink strap hanging from the camera.

These cameras shot Polaroid instant film, and many versions of this type were made (all of which very similar).

  • \$\begingroup\$ @BaardKopperud that was the cool cam as well. It was released in multiple colour schemes, and iirc this version (with "cool cam" on the flash unit) in two colour schemes. \$\endgroup\$
