Reel Crafts: "Fried Green Tomatoes" 35th Anniversary
Advertisement
Reel Crafts is the craft-friendly film series from Circle Cinema and Community Craft. We’ll keep the lights half-raised during the film and guests are encouraged to enjoy a personal craft project to work on during the film. Community Craft will be in the lobby with some craft kits on sale before the film, or you can bring your own quiet craft project like knitting, coloring, beadwork, and more. Then at 7pm, Community Craft’s Mary Make & Do will introduce Kathy Bates and Jessica Tandy in the timeless generational classic Fried Green Tomatoes. Tickets on sale now, $11 members and $13 non-members.
2h10min - Drama, Dark Comedy - Rated PG-13 - English
Originally released in 1991, Fried Green Tomatoes earned two Oscar nominations - Best Original Screenplay and Best Supporting Actress for Jessica Tandy. Plus, watch for Tulsa's own Gailard Sartain playing Kathy Bates' husband!
On one of trapped housewife Evelyn Couch's (Kathy Bates) Wednesday nursing home visits, she encounters Ninny Threadgoode (Jessica Tandy), a colorful old woman who brightens Evelyn's outlook by sharing tales from her past. As Ninny recounts the exploits of her free-spirited sister-in-law Idgie (Mary Stuart Masterson), owner of a small Alabama café in the 1920s, and the bond Idgie shared with her friend Ruth (Mary-Louise Parker), Evelyn gains the confidence to change her own life for the better.
