  • Based upon the award winning and NYT Best-seller, "Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe" by lesbian writter Fannie Flagg, this first-time reaction (for Albert) is one not to be missed. He truly loved this film and the story that spans the decades. He also marveled at how relevant the message within it still rings true today.
    Well worth the watch!

    When I was 6 I was obsessed with this film and watched it all the time. No surprise I came out 10 years later 😂

    It was the same issue with "The Color Purple". The lesbian relation ship was barely addressed in the movie.

    What a lovely movie this was. And so melancholy. Oh, and I’m never stepping on a railroad track again.

    The book and the way it’s written would be very difficult to transcribe to a movie. The book is about so much more than Ruth and Idgie. A great book.

    I used to see Fannie Flagg on game shows like _Match Game_ and small acting parts (the lead's sister on _The New Dick Van Dyke Show)._ And then she came out with this novel.

    The book is much clearer that Ninny isn't Idgie, but even in the movie there are a lot of signs she isn't. For instance, she married Idgie's brother (not Buddy), which she tells Evelyn in the first scene when she meets her. I made a list on another reaction.
    I'm not gay, but I always thought they were a couple in the movie too, although it's clearer in the book.
    There was something called a Boston marriage, where two women would live together as partners. This could be platonic or not openly stated as otherwise or an open secret.

      Spinster ladies and confirmed bachelors. It’s always existed.

      @@jeffking887 For sure. Nothing new under the sun.

    How long was she gone? It takes awhile to get a house condemned and torn down.

    I don't like the cannibalism part either. I hate cannibalism stories.

    This is not a lesbian story

    can't two women love each other without being lesbians?

    • @HuntingViolets
      @HuntingViolets 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Yes, they can. There seems to be something there, though, and I think it's more spelled out in the book.
