Fried Green Tomatoes

1991 – 2.5/5

Likes:
-It makes you cry one minute, laugh the next, then cry again.
-It was a heartfelt story
-Kathy Bates as Evelyn Couch was amazing (as usual).
-Jessica Tandy was so convincing as Ninny Threadgoode.
-I liked how the movie flowed from the present day storyline to the story being told by Ninny.

Dislikes:
-The Robin Hood-like part was unnecessary.
-The movie was overly feministic which made some parts ridiculous.
-I found it odd that Idgie ‘aged’ while Ruth did not.
