I have actually had Fried Green Tomatoes AT The Whistle Stop Cafe. I live a couple hours from Juliette, GA where this was filmed. They have turned basically the whole town into a museum for the movie. It's a great day trip. They completely converted the Cafe building from a hardware store into a working restaurant for the movie, so when the filming was over the locals opened it up as the actual Whistle Stop Cafe and yes, their most famous item on the menu is Fried Green Tomatoes. They are delicious!! There are behind the scenes pictures and memorabilia from the movie all over the restaurant. 💗
I used to live in Savannah - The Whistle Stop Cafe indeed has delicious fried green tomatoes! They're hard to find up here in Chicago, and I do miss them terribly! Anyway, the last time I was at te Whistle Stop Cafe I sat down on the steps for a minute, and these kittens ran up to me out of nowhere and just swarmed me! I was covered in kittens, and it was awesome!
Thats really cool to know, I have a friend I visit yearly who lives in Thomaston so it'd be really easy to visit. This is one of my favorite films I'd love to see this
Mrs. Ninny Threadgood is Idgy's SIL, she was married to Idgy's older brother Cleo (he is the "I see London" character). In the novel it is made clear that they are two separate people, but the movie leaves it open for interpretation.
Yes, Mrs Theadgood was married to Idgie’s older brother Cleo but the boy teasing Idgie before their sister’s wedding was Julian. You can hear the mother saying “Julian, hush”. Cleo is never shown in the movie.
Fried green tomatoes are absolutely delicious, and frankly can be a challenge to get right. But no, they don't fall apart when you bite into them - in fact, a popular way to serve them is in a fried green tomato BLT, and wow, they're addictive!
Yes, since they are green they don't fall apart. The frying also tames the bitterness of them not being ripe. Great reaction and Jen should choose more movies!
Watched this at lunch today. So much fun. Two things... Mrs. Ninny Threadgoode is NOT Idgie. She married into the Threadgoode family. And Nick didn't seem to pick up that this is a LOVE story between Idgie & Ruth. They just had to play it down when the movie was made. It's very clear in the book. You always got that, right Jen? Delightful reaction.
I resisted watching this movie for a very long time. When I did - what a fantastic movie. Every actor were very real. By the way, DO have Mom select more reactions
Video title proves you have an AWESOME MOM!! Can't wait to watch you, watch this, with her! ❤❤ Edit for mom: excellent Cocoon connection! Perhaps you should show him that one too 🥰
Another great movie with Mary-Louise Parker, another film in her must-see wheelhouse is Boys On the Side with Whoopi Goldberg, and Drew Barrymore. It's another laughing whie you cry movies, and it contains - in my opinion - the best rendition ever of Roy Orbison's "You Got It".
Mary Stuart Masterson actually had a regular role on Law And Order:SVU in the early 2000’s besides her film career. Mostly known for romantic comedies like “Some Kind Of Wonderful” and “Benny And Joon”
"Tell me again how the Civil War wasn't about slavery..." There were states who were allowed to continue the practice because they didn't secede. (Missouri Kentucky, Maryland, Delaware Tennessee and portions of Virginia and Louisiana). Lincoln's Proclamation only applied to the enslaved people in the states that rebelled. In the north, New York was considering seceding from the Union; not necessarily to join the Confederacy, but because it made so much money from the Southern Plantations. So, yes, the Civil War was about Slavery, but also about money and political power.
It's always a joy to watch y'all react. If you like movies that can be a little sad but with great endings, I recommend IN AMERICA. As far as I know, nobody has reacted to it.
Yes I remember Cocoon!!! It was the first time as a child seeing Jessica Tandy , found out very recently that she was born in the UK, Stoke Newington to be precise.... my birthplace too !!! Makes me super proud I don't mind saying ❤😂
Such a great film! I’ve watched it many times & love it! I, myself, am not a fan of fried green tomatoes, but my sister LOVES them. I’m not a huge tomato person anyways 😅
I don't know why nobody in production noticed that the final scene seems to imply that Ninny was Idgie and thought to change it, because it confuses a lot of people. Ninny said when she began her story that she married Idgie's older brother Cleo, so she couldn't also be Idgie, unless (insert southern incest joke I'm too lazy to make, but refuse to ignore). I always assumed the little girl Sipsy told to get help was Sipsy's daughter, not her sister Mrs. Otis, because Big George looks at least 30 and he's Sipsy's son, so Sipsy has to be 45+, and that little girl looked about 8. It's like one of those Einstein puzzles: Sipsy is Big George's mother, Big George is at least 30, and the little girl looks around 8. Idgie is around 20-25, Ninny is the wife of Idgie's older brother, and Ninny and Mrs. Otis were roommates at the retirement home (implying they were somewhat close in age). The only way that little girl could be Mrs. Otis is if Sipsy's mom had her daughers 35+ years apart AND either Cleo Threadgoode married someone 15+ years his junior in Ninny, or Ninny is 15+ years older than Mrs. Otis, but they both went to a nursing home at the same time and Mrs. Otis died first for some reason. The timelines just don't really work.
I love y’all’s commentary and reactions esp to this movie. Just knowing there are families where a mom would have the same beliefs as me, like your mom does, is so cool 😎 my mom and I have never got along and I’m 36 now 14:23
I just watched the movie since it is trending in Netflix. And I looked for a reaction video to see what other people think of the ending. Glad I found your channel. I love mom’s commentaries, I can tell she’s a big 90s fan, which is the decade of my formative years. Looking forward to watching more of your reaction vids!
33:40 soooo it doesn’t matter what anyone says…..(1) they cooked Frank and served him to the investigator. And (2) Mrs Threadgood is 💯 Idgy!!! This movie is in my top 5 favorite movies of all time!!! Joined by Tombstone, The Breakfast Club, Forest Gump, and the Shawshank Redemption…. (Tombstone and TBC battle for the #1 spot daily) oh I am obsessed with Harry Potter but I don’t find it fair to include them because they would easily take the first 6 spots…. But yeah …. I am so very happy y’all watched this on the channel…. I love y’all !! I have come to the realization that out of all the different reactors I am subscribed to y’all are very much the best… I get so excited when y’all watch something I love… I look forward to seeing y’all enjoy something for the first time!!! Y’all are amazing and thank you!!! Btw sorry for all the y’all’s I’m delusional currently because I’m exhausted, and when I am my Texas drawl comes glaringly through, including in texts
Jessica Tandy movies Batteries Not Included and my favorite Nobody's Fool 1994 with Paul Newman, Bruce Willis and Melanie Griffith. This also is her last movie.
Yep, makes me tear up every time. I’ve heard that in the book Idgie and Ruth were lesbian lovers. I had a crush on Mary Stuart Masterson since she was in Some Kind Of Wonderful. One of Eric Stolz’s first movies I think. Classic 80’s.
Yeah they were, in the book Buddy never met Ruth, she came after he died, but when Idgie first saw Ruth, as the elderly would say she was smitten with her. And of course Idgie's parents knew this and they knew Ruth also had feelings for Idgie, so in a way when they need Idgie to stay or do something they knew Ruth was the only one to get her to do it...and they were fine with them having feelings for each other
"Sometimes we cry our eyes out on our way TO the ending"- prophetic words, Jen! ❤ And I would LOVE to see you and Nick watch Cocoon- it's such a moving movie.
The women in this film are all amazing. And Fannie Flagg is such a great Southern storyteller. Her books are wholesome with colorful characters (with equally colorful names) and full of unexpected, and often hilarious, twists.
Retrospectively, you could almost solve the murder mystery by algebra. You don't hire Cicely Freakin' Tyson for nothing. Lois Smith is always a welcome presence. Anyone who shared the screen with James Dean is okay by me. If you suspect that Ninny is Idgie, you have to rethink her claim that she married Idgie's brother.
Mrs. Threadgood is not Idgie. She is Idgie’s sister-in-law. She married Idgie’s older brother Cleo. Mrs. Threadgood tells Evelyn about her son Albert & that’s a big clue that she’s not Idgie because Idgie was a le$bian. Her relationship with Ruth was romantic. They were a couple. So Idgie wouldn’t have been with a man or gotten pregnant or given birth. The little girl seen with Sipsey & Big George is not a young Mrs. Otis. She is Big George’s daughter (Sipsey’s granddaughter) who was called by her nickname, Naughty Bird.
And in the book, Vesta was not Ed’s aunt, but another unrelated nursing home resident who obviously has some sort of dementia or other mental health condition.
One of my favorite movies. This movie inspired me to read Fanny Flagg's books. Including the sequel to the book Fried Green Tomatoes. It's called The Wonder Boy of Whistle Stop, and it's just as good.
I think Ninny (Jessica Tandy's character) was married to Cleo who was a brother of Idgie and Buddy. Pretty sure she says that at one point, even though it's not clear who Cleo is. For a while I thought it was the guy with glasses who goes to Frank Bennett's house to get Ruth with Idgie and Big George, but I think the time (that all these people would be the right ages at specific times) doesn't work.
@@ScientificallyStupidThe brother with the glasses (who teases Idgie as a kid and then helps rescue Ruth) is Julian. His name is said in a couple of missable lines.
Na she was playing with her to make the story interesting. There was no Cleo in the story. Two girls and two boys. The youngest boy was Julian , and you never saw ninny there either. That is how the honey got there. And she just had a baby later in life. Even if she was lesbian, lots of people married to cover who they are. There are twists all through the movie to keep you guessing.
Jessica Tandy???! Nick have younever seen DRIVING MISS DAISY?!!! Yes Jen, my husband Ron and I know Cocoon and remember it dearly. It is our official first date night movie. (movie that we went to see, not movie of our date) 😉
Fried Green Tomatoes is one of my all time favorites too!! Seen it at least ten times and even bought a copy of it!!! Yes I still cry in certain scenes too !! Everyone did a great job in this one!!
As far as eating Frank, the cannibals in Papua/New Guinea called human meat "long pork". Supposedly very similar taste so 'the secret's in the sauce' 😆
Please treasure this moment with your mom for all it's worth. The songs, shows, and movies that my mom and I shared have meant so much to me since she passed away. Every time I watch or listen to them, it's like having a piece of her with me, and it's a wonderful source of comfort and pleasure.
Chris O Donnel ( misspelled) check him out in Scent Of A Woman with him and Al Pacino!! Great movie and Chris has a much bigger role!! Al Pacino won the Oscar for this movie!!
Fried Green Tomatoes are sort of a sour treat, tomatoes are firmer when they're green, so they don't get mushy. If you have had fried pickles- similar to that but I think usually more mild. Human meat is colloquially known as "long pork" as they say human tastes like pork, so the process would absolutely be the same.
My mom loved this movie. Jessica Tandy is British(I had no idea), she and her husband Hume Cronyn were in several films together including "Cocoon" and "Batteries Not Included"
Oh, that bee tree in the meadows is very important, especially in the Wonder boy of Whistles stop the sequel to fried green tomatoes ( only in the book) what that tree is holding will help Evelyn, Ruthie (Buddy Jr daughter)and Buddy Jr out. So fir those who haven't read the books i advise of course read Fried Green Tomatoes at the whistle stop cafe and then the Wonderboy of Whistles stop
There’s also a sequel novel about Buddy’s life, being raised by Idgie, and his daughter Ruth, who becomes best friends with Evelyn Couch. It’s very sweet.
Idgie and Ruth were lovers in the book. Mary Stewart Masterson did the bee scene, not a stunt double. Fanny Flagg was nominated for an Oscar for best adapted screenplay.
I'm a midwestern guy from Iowa, smack dab in the middle of America, I have tried fried green tomatoes, I'll put it this way, the movie was much better than the fried green tomatoes.
Life hack: if you show the movie to the person you care about and tell her it's your favorite movie and than she tell you that's movie was "fine" and then tell you that it wasn't just end the relationship before it will crush you. The person just don't know what emotions are.
The movie is awesome.I was hoping you would pull this one out,eventually.fried green tomatoes are quite delicious,ifyou make them right.also you need to find the perfect tomatoes.I Like em when they get the first little blush on them.that makes the perfect fgt

The real Cafe it was based on was owned by Fanny Flagg's aunt I believe. It's the Irondale Cafe in Irondale Alabama.
@@bgb411 You are right.
Mrs. Ninny Threadgood is Idgy's SIL, she was married to Idgy's older brother Cleo (he is the "I see London" character). In the novel it is made clear that they are two separate people, but the movie leaves it open for interpretation.

I didn't read the book but I always thought Idgie was Ninny. That was smart on their part.
The Director chose to make it look as if Ninny might be Idgie
Fried green tomatoes are absolutely delicious, and frankly can be a challenge to get right. But no, they don't fall apart when you bite into them - in fact, a popular way to serve them is in a fried green tomato BLT, and wow, they're addictive!
Ohhh that sounds yummy! 😊
I hope yall follow up with another Jessica Tandy gem: Driving Miss Daisy with Morgan Freeman
Yes, since they are green they don't fall apart. The frying also tames the bitterness of them not being ripe. Great reaction and Jen should choose more movies!

It was pretty clear that the director wanted Mrs. Threadgoode to be Idgie. I think in the movie, they’re the same people. I like having both endings.
I resisted watching this movie for a very long time. When I did - what a fantastic movie. Every actor were very real. By the way, DO have Mom select more reactions
Cocoon would be another great movie for you to see!!
Mary Stuart Masterson and Jonny Depp are great in the movie:
BENNY and JOON
I think you’d like this one too!
Give you a chance to see her again.
Fantastic movie.
If mom has such good taste, let her decide more 😁
You're both amazing, though
❤
Video title proves you have an AWESOME MOM!! Can't wait to watch you, watch this, with her! ❤❤
Edit for mom: excellent Cocoon connection! Perhaps you should show him that one too 🥰
Hey I’m a guys guy I watch all kinds of movies this movie I watched at my late mothers house . And I really enjoyed this movie .
The kinds of movies you enjoy is NOT the measure of a man. Be true to yourself.
Another great movie with Mary-Louise Parker, another film in her must-see wheelhouse is Boys On the Side with Whoopi Goldberg, and Drew Barrymore. It's another laughing whie you cry movies, and it contains - in my opinion - the best rendition ever of Roy Orbison's "You Got It".

R.I.P To Jessica Tandy & Cicely Tyson, Still Miss You Both, Always
It's always a joy to watch y'all react. If you like movies that can be a little sad but with great endings, I recommend IN AMERICA. As far as I know, nobody has reacted to it.
This is a very good movie!
Jessica Tandy… in The Birds, Driving Miss Daisy, etc.
Skip the barbeque. Secrets in the sauce
Try Batteries not included.
I used to watch this movie with my grandmother all the time. I really enjoyed watching yalls reaction.
Fried Green Tomatoes - battered, deep fried, dashed with black pepper & parmesan cheese, served with Marinara - a delight for the tastebuds!
Skip the cheese
Mom has great taste!
Yes I remember Cocoon!!! It was the first time as a child seeing Jessica Tandy , found out very recently that she was born in the UK, Stoke Newington to be precise.... my birthplace too !!! Makes me super proud I don't mind saying ❤😂

Also some people don't know this but Evelyn friend is actually the viice of patti Mayonnaise Doug's crush ( from the cartoon show Doug)

Kathy Bates is a great actress.

I love watching Jen's face when they throw a curveball. You try so hard to not spill the beans.
Someone has already mentioned Mary Stuart Masterson in Some Kind of Wonderful. Another film is Benny and Joon with Johnny Depp.
YES! And "At Close Range" with Sean and Chris Penn and Christopher Walken.
Another movie I watched with my best friend as a kid.. love it still!

Mrs Threadgoode is 100% not Idgie, she was Idgie’s sister in law. She said she was married to Cleo Idgie’s brother.
Jessica Tandy movies Batteries Not Included and my favorite Nobody's Fool 1994 with Paul Newman, Bruce Willis and Melanie Griffith. This also is her last movie.
Love this movie so much and Fried Green Tomatoes are yummy! We at them a lot when I was young.
Such a lively reaction!
Fantastic....This is going to be fun:)
My mom and sister loved this movie. I couldn't stand it lol.
Wait.. "I see London... I see..." what? How does the rest of it go?
"I see London, I see France, I see a lady's underpants."
@@Flix2Us oh, okay, never mind 😆😆😆

❤
Jen’s poker face during the fakeout scenes😂
Of course WE remember Cocoon Jen.. 🤭😄😄 I feel like I'm getting to about the age when I need one..
😅
Jessica Tandy was adorable in Batteries not Included as well. If you haven't seen it I highly recommend it!
Good movie, Kathy Bates is always awesome. Watch Dolores Claiborne next.
"Sometimes we cry our eyes out on our way TO the ending"- prophetic words, Jen! ❤ And I would LOVE to see you and Nick watch Cocoon- it's such a moving movie.
I love Jessica Tandy in The birds and Batteries not included as well as Cocoon. I remember it well.
The women in this film are all amazing. And Fannie Flagg is such a great Southern storyteller.
Her books are wholesome with colorful characters (with equally colorful names) and full of unexpected, and often hilarious, twists.
I just finished "Can't wait to get to Heaven", and I absolutely loved it. Her books are the best.
Retrospectively, you could almost solve the murder mystery by algebra. You don't hire Cicely Freakin' Tyson for nothing. Lois Smith is always a welcome presence. Anyone who shared the screen with James Dean is okay by me. If you suspect that Ninny is Idgie, you have to rethink her claim that she married Idgie's brother.
Great change of pace....thank you for indulging all of us who wanted Jen to take the lead!
the book was more on the nose on the relationship but the movie is still awesome
Mrs. Threadgood is not Idgie. She is Idgie’s sister-in-law. She married Idgie’s older brother Cleo.

Jessica Tandy???! Nick have younever seen DRIVING MISS DAISY?!!! Yes Jen, my husband Ron and I know Cocoon and remember it dearly. It is our official first date night movie. (movie that we went to see, not movie of our date) 😉
Great pick!
Fried Green Tomatoes
is one of my all time favorites too!! Seen it at least ten times and even bought a copy of it!!!
Yes I still cry in certain scenes too !!
Everyone did a great job in this one!!
As far as eating Frank, the cannibals in Papua/New Guinea called human meat "long pork". Supposedly very similar taste so 'the secret's in the sauce' 😆
Kathy Bates never disappoints! She’s a genius of her generation .
Please treasure this moment with your mom for all it's worth. The songs, shows, and movies that my mom and I shared have meant so much to me since she passed away. Every time I watch or listen to them, it's like having a piece of her with me, and it's a wonderful source of comfort and pleasure.
This Was My Late Grandma's Favorite Movie, I Thinks Of Her , When I Watch This Movie,Thanks Guy's 😊
Chris O Donnel ( misspelled) check him out in Scent Of A Woman with him and Al Pacino!! Great movie and Chris has a much bigger role!! Al Pacino won the Oscar for this movie!!
Fried Green Tomatoes are sort of a sour treat, tomatoes are firmer when they're green, so they don't get mushy. If you have had fried pickles- similar to that but I think usually more mild.
Human meat is colloquially known as "long pork" as they say human tastes like pork, so the process would absolutely be the same.
Nice Reaction Guy's 😊
They definitely cooked him. Sipsie wouldn't let the black folks eat that day.
Southern tradition to stop the clocks and cover photographs on the wall when someone died.
I like your review, but I couldn’t get over you laughing at the end when this is such an emotional movie.
Fannie Flagg was always on Match Game (game show)
You two are just so lovely to watch
This movie always makes me cry, such beautiful acting and storytelling.
Idgy’s actress is the aunt in the new film FIVE NIGHTS AT FREDDY’S.
My mom loved this movie. Jessica Tandy is British(I had no idea), she and her husband Hume Cronyn were in several films together including "Cocoon" and "Batteries Not Included"
Great Movie, Great Cast & Great Performances By Everyone In This Movie 😊
Oh, that bee tree in the meadows is very important, especially in the Wonder boy of Whistles stop the sequel to fried green tomatoes ( only in the book) what that tree is holding will help Evelyn, Ruthie (Buddy Jr daughter)and Buddy Jr out. So fir those who haven't read the books i advise of course read Fried Green Tomatoes at the whistle stop cafe and then the Wonderboy of Whistles stop
There’s also a sequel novel about Buddy’s life, being raised by Idgie, and his daughter Ruth, who becomes best friends with Evelyn Couch. It’s very sweet.
Idgie and Ruth were lovers in the book. Mary Stewart Masterson did the bee scene, not a stunt double. Fanny Flagg was nominated for an Oscar for best adapted screenplay.
4:00 THANK YOU! I was just trying to remember where I had seen her recently, and it was Red 2 (that I just saw for the first time last week).
I'm a midwestern guy from Iowa, smack dab in the middle of America, I have tried fried green tomatoes, I'll put it this way, the movie was much better than the fried green tomatoes.
Life hack: if you show the movie to the person you care about and tell her it's your favorite movie and than she tell you that's movie was "fine" and then tell you that it wasn't just end the relationship before it will crush you. The person just don't know what emotions are.
Mary Stuart Masterson actually did the bee scene herself when the stunt double wouldn’t do it. She has since taken up beekeeping in real life.
Loved reading her books! Thanks for sharing this one. 🙂
One of my favorite movies!
I looove this movie x
Check out A Home of Our Own
i just watched this one. i love it so much. :)
Cicily tyson
omg, love this one ❤
The movie is awesome.I was hoping you would pull this one out,eventually.fried green tomatoes are quite delicious,ifyou make them right.also you need to find the perfect tomatoes.I Like em when they get the first little blush on them.that makes the perfect fgt
Also,they are better fried in a skillet with butter,and the cornmeal in the batter is essential
