SUMMARY:Fried Green Tomatoes - DVD
DESCRIPTION:A woman learns the value of friendship as she hears the story o
 f two women and how their friendship shaped their lives in this warm comedy
 -drama. Evelyn Couch (Kathy Bates) is an emotionally repressed housewife wi
 th a habit of drowning her sorrows in candy bars. Her husband Ed (Gailard S
 artain) barely acknowledges her existence\, and while he visits his aunt at
  a nursing home every week\, Evelyn is not permitted to come into the room 
 because the old women doesn't like her. One week\, while waiting out Ed's v
 isit\, Evelyn meets Ninny Threadgoode (Jessica Tandy)\, a frail but feisty 
 old woman who lives at the same nursing home and loves to tell stories. Ove
 r the span of several weeks\, she spins a whopper about one of her relative
 s\, Idgie (Mary Stuart Masterson). Back in the 1920s\, Idgie was a sweet bu
 t fiercely independent woman with her own way of doing things who ran the t
 own diner in Whistle Stop\, Alabama. Idgie was very close to her brother Bu
 ddy (Chris O'Donnell)\, and when he died\, she wouldn't talk to anyone exce
 pt Buddy's girl\, Ruth Jamison (Mary-Louise Parker). Idgie gave Ruth a job 
 at the cafe after she left her abusive husband\, Frank Bennett (Nick Searcy
 ). Between her habit of standing up for herself\, standing up to Frank\, an
 d serving food to Black people out the back of the diner\, Idgie raised the
  ire of the less tolerant citizens of Whistle Stop\, and when Frank mysteri
 ously disappeared\, many locals suspected that Idgie\, Ruth\, and their fri
 ends may have been responsible. Evelyn finds herself looking forward to her
  weekly visits with Ninny\, and is inspired by her story to take a new prid
 e in herself and assert her independence from Ed. Fried Green Tomatoes was 
 based on the novel Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe by actress
 -turned-author Fannie Flagg\, who makes a cameo appearance as the leader of
  a self-help group. ~ Mark Deming\, All Movie Guide
