      @@sheilasavage9679 Isn’t that such a beautiful scene? That’s true love for your community. Train company was heavily insured and the owners of the shipment would be recompensated. But the unauthorized gifts remained in the bellies of those who needed it, and something about that simply feels more righteous. We have to prioritize Americans over other countries. Not ONE DOLLAR sent overseas until every American is lodged, has a full belly & a little put back. Faith, hope and love are some good things He gave us, but the greatest is Love.

    I've seen this movie a million times (it's my favorite) but I'll never forget when we watched it in my English class during my sophomore year of high school. I made a comment about how they (Idgie and Ruth) were clearly in love with each other and the movie just wasn't ready to tell their love story. Yeah.. my entire class thought I was nuts 😅 but I stand by what I said

      Does it really have to ne connected with sex to be meaningful? Like it's impossible to have deep devotion, loyalty and sense of being responsible to one a other WITHOUT it actually being connected to the bedroom. If that's the case, I must say that I am sorry but you never really understood what friendship is.
      Now, I know the novel does make it a lesbian romance and I have no problem with that, because all the art should portray our human experiences. But I also have no problem with movie stressing out friendship. There aren't many movies about friendship, and if there are it's mostly about kids.

      I really like it that they didn't. Like it's impossible to have deep relationships with others without it being sexual in some way. That's not true. In fact, without the sex part people tend to have much longer, lifelong friendships.

During the depression people had nothing including food and tossing them canned goods from a boxcar would hardly be reason to cast you out of heaven I know this much.

    I think they both had a lot of love for each other, Ruth’s opinion on men was destroyed after the countless beatings from her husband, while living in fear. Plus both Idgie and Ruth felt connected because they both loved Buddy, the both of them witnessed him die.
    Ruth clearly was in love with him, and Buddy was Idgies best friend and brother. You even see at the end where Ruth is buried, she’s buried right beside Buddy.
    I don’t know if there was fully a lesbian relationship, but I do think there was love and feelings because of what they had been through. They connected on a deeper level. Ruth tells Idgie even when she’s dying to find a man and settle down.
    Maybe there was something that happened behind closed doors, but that wasn’t the message they wanted to show clearly. They didn’t need too, we saw their friendship, their love and connection throughout the movie perfectly, I didn’t need to see them kiss or anything like that to prove anything to me.

      in the book buddy and ruth never even met, ruth came into the scene about 3/4 years after buddy dies. the book makes it clear ruth was in love with idgy even before ruth got married, actually that realization made her leave the family house and go back to georgia to marry frank, because she felt guilty and thought it was wrong loving idgy, because she was like 5 or 6 years younger, and plus the obvious, she was a girl. i hope they could make a remake to truly show this love story as it was meant to be, however matching the magic of the 2 original actresses would be a challenge

      Ruth didn't tell Idgie to find a man. She told her to "find someone."
      I think it's clear that they had a deep love for each other. How far they went is for the viewer to decide.
      What we can all agree on is that the relationship they had was just like that of other people who shared had a life together.
      They started a business, raised a child together, and did everything for each other. They were a family and no one can deny that.
      I mean, Ruth knew all along that she and Buddy Jr. were the ones keeping Idgie from settling down with "someone else."
      Idgie's response was that she was as settled as she had always hoped to be.
      Deep down they both knew that Idgie probably would have stayed alone had Ruth and Buddy Jr. not come into her life.
      Not because no one would have wanted her, but because Idgie herself would not have wanted it any other way.
      This is also made clear when Ruth asks her to find someone on her deathbed. She doesn't want Idgie to be alone.
      As I said, they are a family and how far their intimate relationship went is up to the viewer to decide.

    Read the book, it gives so many details on the characters. However the movie Doesn't portray Imogen and Ruths relationship like the book! Read it!

    The beautiful things about this movie:
    Some situations are totally comedic, others are serious and presented or dealt with comedically, and others are presented or dealt with seriously. True dramedy!
    When Idgie lets Ruth be her friend, they become best friends and have fun together a lot.
    Ruth helps Idgie to enjoy life, and Ninny helps Evelyn to enjoy life with her stories of Ruth, Idgie, and others.
    That's my take on this movie.

    Idgie is one of my heroes. The movie, the depth of female friendship, even omitting the gay factor, affected me deeply. I remember it well, from 1991.

    I’ve seen this a bajillion times. I always thought that Ninny was actually Idgie. Because we never see Idgie at the end and the “knowing” look Ninny and Evelyn give each other plus the jar of honey and letter on the head stone. I thought it was an “aha” moment and Evelyn understood that Ninny was actually Idgie. It was today as I was watching it I started googling parts of the movie that I learned Ninny was Idgie’s sister in law. Because I had formed this conclusion when I was 8 or something, I never questioned it.

      Sister in law, married idgie's brother theo.
      And, actually, the very end of the movie there is a brief scene of an older woman & man selling honey n (produce? I think) in a roadside stand....
      THAT was Idgie n one of her, many, brothers.
      (I recommend the book, as much as I love this movie, the book is so much better ☺️ & I just saw Fannie Flagg wrote a "sequel" (told by, now 83yr old, Buddy Jr., Ruth's son). I've enjoyed many of Fannie's books n cannot wait to get my hands on "the wonder boy of whistle stop"!! 🤗😉

    Can someone who read a book and watched a movie share their Opinion about the question that has been torturing me? Why in the movie Buddy knows Ruth and they have romantic relationship, but in the book Buddy died much earlier before Ruth comes in their town?

    • @zyxw2000
