Send us a textKatie and Bridget tell the entire plot of this movie to a stranger at a nursing home as they re-watch the movie: Fried Green Tomatoes! Come along as meet Evelyn, a housewife who gets ignored constantly until she meets her new BFF Ninny! When she tells the tale of her alleged sister-in-law Idgie and her basically love story with a woman named Ruth, Evelyn learns to stand up for herself and develop multiple personality disorder #Towanda. Idgie and Ruth's story spans over decades and includes numerous train accidents/deaths, the plot to the song "Goodbye Earl", forbidden love, domestic abuse, racism, patriarchal bullshit, and cannibalism! This movie has us asking the deep questions such as: Should all children still be shown PSA videos about not playing on train tracks like Bridget and Katie experienced as kids? Is murdering your abusive/baby-snatching husband and then barbecuing him to be eaten by strangers sometimes the only way?? WAS NINNY REALLY IDGIE AND THIS WAS HER CONFESSION!? All these and more in this emotional movie! Released in 1991, it stars Kathy Bates, Jessica Tandy, Mary Stuart Masterson, Mary-Louise Parker, Cicely Tyson, Chris O'Donnell, and Stan Shaw.

If you were alive when Fried Green Tomatoes came out -- first Fannie Flagg's book, then the movie -- you may recall it was a phenomenon. To a (very) young Ali Clayton, it was a bit of a personal phenomenon, its only-kinda-coded queerness calling out to her before she even knew why. But beyond that, it was a movie about Southern women in a South that Ali recognized -- one where bad things can happen, but good people are holding each other up through it all.Then Jordan has one quick thing about last weekend's big win for cinemas & cinemagoing.Listen to Y'all Gay?Check out Country Queer***With Jordan Crucchiola and Ali Clayton Feeling Seen is hosted by Jordan Crucchiola and is a production Maximum Fun.Need more Feeling Seen?

Welcome back to another edition of the Video Store Podcast. In honor of Women's History Month, I've selected four films featuring what I like to call “Wonder Women.” These are women who are brave, kind, strong, and all-around wonderful. This isn't meant to be an exhaustive list—simply four films that resonate with me personally as a woman, and you should watch, whether you're a woman or not. Fried Green Tomatoes (1991)First up is the 1991 Oscar-nominated film, Fried Green Tomatoes. The film stars Mary Stuart Masterson, Mary-Louise Parker, Kathy Bates, and Jessica Tandy, among others. Fried Green Tomatoes is based on the book Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe by Fannie Flagg, who also wrote the first draft of the screenplay. This film flashes between the 1920s and the 1980s, looking at Wonder Women through all stages of life. No matter where you find yourself, Fried Green Tomatoes is a great film to enjoy with the wonderful women in your life. Steel Magnolias (1989)Next up is Steel Magnolias from 1989. Focusing on southern women's culture in the 1980s, Steel Magnolias highlights the friendship among six women who must persevere through difficult circumstances. Starring Shirley MacLaine, Olympia Dukakis, Sally Field, Julia Roberts, Dolly Parton, Daryl Hannah, and Tom Skerritt, Steel Magnolias expertly blends comedy and drama, making a great movie full of Wonder Women. 9 to 5 (1980)The second Dolly Parton film in today's line-up is 9 to 5. The film, in addition to Dolly Parton, features Lily Tomlin, Jane Fonda, and Dabney Coleman. Highlighting 1980s office politics that are unfortunately still all too relevant today, 9 to 5 tackles serious women's issues with humor, making their points even more effective and poignant. This is a great laugh after the tear-jerking drama after Steel Magnolias and Fried Green Tomatoes. Alien (1979)The last film in our Wonder Women selections is 1979's Alien directed by Ridley Scott. Starring Sigourney Weaver, Tom Skerritt, Veronica Cartwright, Yaphet Kotto, John Hurt, Ian Holm, Harry Dean Stanton, and Bolaji Badejo as the Xenomorph, Alien, is a phenomenal sci-fi horror film. Alien's leading wonder woman, Ripley, played by Sigourney Weaver, is an amazing sci-fi heroine. She's smart, brave, and resourceful, totes a flamethrower, and has a kitty-cat sidekick. What more do you want in a film about a Wonder Woman? We hope you enjoy these films and come back and see us next week on the Video Store Podcast. Thanks for reading Video Store Podcast!

Join Tamara for an interview (actually, we're calling it a conversation!) with notable movie producer Andrew Meyer. What exactly does a movie producer do? You better believe we cover that in the first few minutes!  Andrew spent years in Hollywood, where he served as the President of Herb Alpert and Jerry Moss' A&M Films, Robert Redford's Wildwood Productions, and Norman Lear's Act All Productions. For the past 20 years, he has lived in Savannah and worked as a Professor of Film and Television at SCAD. Notable among the many films Andrew has produced are Fried Green Tomatoes, nominated for two Academy Awards; The Breakfast Club, which Entertainment Weekly named “The Best High School Movie of all Time;” Birdy, which won the Grand Prix Special Jury Prize at the Cannes Film Festival; and the iconic fan favorite Better Off Dead. He recently published his second book, Walking In the Fast Lane - purchase it online here for now, and it will come out in print later in January! https://tinyurl.com/3rdrcnku   Check out more of Andrew's work and follow him here: https://andrewmeyerentertainment.com/ https://www.instagram.com/andyhmeyer839/    Topics in their chat include: The different types of producers; how Andrew's best advice to become a producer is to option a book (acquire the rights); his early career as a music producer and a story of how the Police had to fight for "Roxanne" to be a single; his sabbatical year of traveling around the world, which ended when he received a telegram (!); the usefulness of learning the "Movie Magic" software; how The Breakfast Club went from being a small indie movie to a much larger-budget movie with a much better set; why authors are frequently not great at adapting their own work into a screenplay; the 2 different types of screenwriters; the fact that Stephen King sells the rights to some of his short stories for just $1, allowing aspiring filmmakers and students to adapt them into movies; and his job interview with Robert Redford that involved him traveling to Sundance and then being asked to ride horses through mountain territory together. Tune in and get all the details!

Give to help Chris continue making Truce Betty Friedan's The Feminine Mystique kicked off second-wave feminism in the United States. The book was published in 1963 and addressed what she called "the problem that has no name". As women's roles shifted with the invention of electricity and the number of workers needed to run farms decreased, women's roles shifted. The idea of a "traditional" woman went from a farm laborer or factory worker to someone who kept the home and managed her children's schedules. This left many women feeling unsatisfied and searching for their purpose in life. Friedan's book addressed those issues and inspired more extreme views of women. Several "Christian" books were published to respond to Friedan and second-wave feminism. One was The Total Woman, the number one bestselling nonfiction book of the year which has sold over 10 million copies. Published in 1973, it was the genesis of the scene in Fried Green Tomatoes where Kathy Bates goes to the door to meet her husband wrapped in Saran Wrap. It encouraged women to use costumes to greet their husbands, to avoid being "shrewish", and to use Norman Vincent Peele's philosophy of positive thinking. Another book was The Spirit-Controlled Woman by Beverly LaHaye. This was a companion piece to a book written by her husband Tim LaHaye, but it somehow managed to avoid telling women how to live by the Spirit. Special guests join Chris for this episode. Each took a different book so we can better understand this movement and counter-movement. Special Guests: Amy Fritz of the Untangled Faith podcast Anna Tran of the Love Thy Neighborhood podcast Jen Pollock Michel author of In Good Time, A Habit Called Faith, and Surprised by Paradox Sources: The Feminine Mystique by Betty Friedan The Spirit-Controlled Woman by Beverly LaHaye The Total Woman by Marabel Morgan Discussion Questions: What is your relationship to the books we discussed in these episodes? What is the difference between first-wave feminism and second-wave feminism? How have the roles of women changed in society in the last 200 years? What role did electricity, the Industrial Revolution and wars shaped those roles? What was the "problem that has no name"? How did/does it impact women's lives? How does this vision of feminism compare and contrast to biblical images of women? How have we added or subtracted from what the Bible says about women to create our modern image of a "Christian woman"? Morgan advised her readers to meet their husbands at the door in costumes. What is your opinion of this idea? What did she mean when she said she had been "shrewish"? Is that term insulting to women? Why? Is the "Christian ideal" vision of women one that requires women to stay home with children? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Please join us as we discuss our last film of the summer, Fried Green Tomatoes. This incredible film from 1991 is just as fresh today as it was when it debuted. The cast is stellar, solid, and deeply committed to Fanny Flagg's eponymous novel, which was considered for the Pulitzer Prize when it came out. There are layers and layers here, and we hope we were able to pull a few of those layers back for you. This film is a gem and belongs in every film lovers collection. Please join us! We think you'll be inspired to re-visit the film and to think about the many themes that Fanny Flagg uncovered with such a deft, comedic and soulful hand.

The film industry had to adjust a lot since the hit of COVID. Thanks to streaming services, the hit wasn't as volatile as could be. Now that society seems to be reaching the end of the pandemic, the future of the filmmaking and film experience post-COVID has become part of the conversation. To help us explore the subject, I have on the show today, seasoned filmtrepreneur and award-winning producer, Anne Marie Gillen.Anne Marie is the CEO of Gillen Group--- an entertainment consulting firm in Los Angeles. Production-wise, she's credited for producing commercially and critically successful films and television shows. Coupled with an international network of studios, distributors, and talent, one may call her, The Plug.During the stages and succession of my career, she's ranked C-suite executive positions at big entertainment companies like Development & Production at Entertainment Business Group, Electric Shadow Productions, and Revelations Entertainment.Her comedy-drama film, Fried Green Tomatoes produced in 1991, is an all-time classic and stands to have been a Box office success. It grossed $119.4 million on an $11 million budget and was nominated for two Academy Awards. The film tells the story of a housewife, Evelyn Couch, unhappy with her marriage, befriends an elderly lady in a nursing home, and is enthralled by the tales she tells of people she used to know. Through Idgie's inspiring life, Evelyn learns to be more assertive and builds a lasting friendship of her own with Ninny. Anne Marie compiled her business expertise in the industry and her production experience to write The Producer's Business Handbook (2010, 3rd edition).

We also got to chat about Julia's book Bad Auditions, who was in those rooms with her, and what it was like playing a high school student at 30.

This week, DtW takes a trip to 80s Louisiana to admire the flowers and friendly faces in Steel Magnolias! Dan and Raul continue to complete their education in the cultural classics by watching a movie both remember as very well loved but never got around to watching. With a half dozen powerhouse women playing the cadre of close friends at the center of the film, there was no doubt this would be a showcase of incredible talent, but will the story hold its shape, or is it as dated as a big frizzy do? This definitely isn't Fried Green Tomatoes! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/downtopod/message

Welcome to The B-Side, from The Film Stage. Here we talk about movie stars! Not the movies that made them famous or kept them famous, but the ones that they made in between. Today we discuss a character actress, multiple Oscar nominee (and winner) and living legend who is still somehow underrated: Kathy “Bobo” Bates! Our B-Sides today are: A Home of Our Own, Dolores Claiborne, Love Liza, and Richard Jewell. The actress made her bones in the theater, originating roles in iconic stuff such as ‘Night Mother and Come Back to the 5 & Dime, Jimmy Dean, Jimmy Dean. Our guest is Billy Ray Brewton, host of the superb The Incinerator Podcast, the Movie Mixtapes podcast, and the Center Clueless podcast. Brewton is also the Festival Director/Lead Programmer of Make Believe Seattle. We talk to Brewton about why Bates is his favorite working actress, her innate Southern charm, her late break into movies, her essential performance in Dolores Claiborne, and why Fried Green Tomatoes is so important to the state of Alabama. Additional fun tidbits include: the strange career of A Home of Our Own director Tony Bill, the underrated Bates-led TV show Harry's Law, the exciting acting Oscar wins that happened in the late ‘80s and early ‘90s, and some of Bates' other B-Sides (Angus, Primary Colors, Bonneville).

The film industry has had to adjust a lot since the hit of COVID. Thanks to streaming services, the hit wasn't as volatile as possible. Now that society seems to be reaching the end of the pandemic, the future of the filmmaking and film experience post-COVID has become part of the conversation. To help us explore the subject, I have on the show today seasoned Filmtrepreneur and award-winning producer Anne Marie Gillen.Anne Marie is the CEO of Gillen Group--- an entertainment consulting firm in Los Angeles. Production-wise, she's credited for producing commercially and critically successful films and television shows. Coupled with an international network of studios, distributors, and talent, one may call her, The Plug.During the stages and succession of my career, she's ranked in C-suite executive positions at big entertainment companies like Development & Production at Entertainment Business Group, Electric Shadow Productions, and Revelations Entertainment.Her comedy-drama film, Fried Green Tomatoes, produced in 1991, is an all-time classic and stands to have been a Box office success. It grossed $119.4 million on an $11 million budget and was nominated for two Academy Awards. The film tells the story of a housewife, Evelyn Couch, who is unhappy with her marriage, befriends an elderly lady in a nursing home and is enthralled by the tales she tells of people she used to know.Through Idgie's inspiring life, Evelyn learns to be more assertive and builds a lasting friendship of her own with Ninny. Anne Marie compiled her industry business expertise and production experience to write The Producer's Business Handbook (2010, 3rd edition). The book was followed by her next film, Parallel Man: Infinite Pursuit, in 2014.Chased by commandos, Agent Nick Morgan is on the run in the multiverse! To escape, he jumps between parallel Earths including a polluted industrial hellscape, a planet where dinosaurs evolved into humanoids, and a fungi world with giant mushrooms.Your corporate minds will definitely enjoy this interview. I've linked Anne Marie's book, The Business of Show Business for Creatives, in the show notes for you to check out.Enjoy my conversation with Anne Marie Gillen.
