Guest post of the week by Brittany Booker
The other day, I was watching CLEAR TV
and a movie came on for its thirty year anniversary that I had never
seen. I have to say that I am ashamed that I have never seen “Fried Green Tomatoes”.
Of course, I have always heard that it is one of the best movies ever, a
Southern Cult Classic. I have seen the other Southern Cult Classics
like “Steele Magnolias”, but never got the chance to see “Fried Green
Tomatoes”. I feel like I never watched it because my Mom always told me
that it was sad and I tend to cry (well not just cry, bawl) at movies.
My husband thinks that my crying at movies is ridiculous. Anyway, I
just didn’t know what I was missing. It was a great movie. It also had
one of my favorite actresses, Kathy Bates. The funny thing is that the
girls go to a trial in Valdosta, Georgia. Valdosta is my husband’s home
town. I love the movie and will definitely be ordering the DVD.
