ASWL almost missed this good movie because of the name? The relationship between the two heroines is so touching that I cried to death?

There are two eye scenes in the movie that are particularly impressive. The first is Ruth watching from a distance Idgie took out honey from a tree hole full of bees and put it in a bottle, and then carefully closed the bottle cap and walked over. Ruth He looked at her in surprise, tears slowly forming in his eyes. Seeing this, I was secretly happy, this is the feeling that burst out when I suddenly realized that I was in love with the person in front of me, worried that she was injured and panicked. The second was when the court was facing Bo, the detective asked why Ruth left her husband and came to the whistle station with Idgie, because of money, a big house...? Ruth hesitated for dozens of seconds, his eyes were red and tears were rolling, and finally he said she's my best friend, i love her. This is probably the most sincere confession in the movie, woohoo?

There is no kiss scene or explicit confession in the movie, but it can make people feel the sincere feelings between the two heroines. I really like it so much.

    The two friends in my teenage years are like the female version of Huckleberry Finn's Adventures, one is a lady but yearns for freedom in her heart, and the other is wild and uninhibited mixed with the three religions. Take the night train together to practice good deeds outside the church, and walk out of the marriage and family that oppresses women together to provide a warm harbor for the marginalized. The setting of the southern town is very historical, and the domestic abusers and the Ku Klux Klan are overlapped as perpetrators, making the "united fight" of women and people of color more convincing. The mystery of "frying" is an understatement, but it is quite serious... Another current timeline shows Bates getting out of the middle-aged crisis and marriage predicament from the story told by the old lady, finding himself and regaining strength, and the friendship between women inside and outside the story helping each other spanning nearly a century.

    Femininity, upbringing, friendship, race, the recipe for the familiar American South story, with just one more gravy.
