Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe

Visiting her mother-in-law at the nursing home, Evelyn befriends a sweet and optimistic old lady named Ninny Threadgoode. Every week Mrs. Threadgoode tells Evelyn more and more funny and sad stories from her youth. In particular about two women, Idgie and Ruth, who once owned a cafe located near the train station in the town of Whistle Stop, Alabama. The white and black residents of the town, living as one big and friendly family, were united by a common secret: long before the war, Frank Bennett, Ruth's brutal husband, disappeared without a trace, helped by her friends to escape. But when many years later Frank's car is pulled out of the river, will the truth about what happened more than half a century ago surface?
