not canonically queer, not not canonically queer, but a secret third thing (if it was between a man and a woman you could remove 90% of the romance and it would still be considered obviously canonically romantic)

Oh this book is so underrated
Feminism!
Lesbianism!
Killing racists!
Amazing friendships between women!
Butchfemme!
1920s/1930s lesbians!
A 1980s depressed housewife being inspired by said lesbians!
Body positivity!
An old woman in an asylum who becomes the only reason why said housewife has a will to live!
Bees!
An incredibly small town!
Trains!
Everyone knows the lesbians are together but literally no one gives a shit, they also raise a kid! And own the Whistle Stop Café!
Cannibalism!
Time skips!
A side character who has casual sex in the 1920s/1930s and doesn’t care what anyone else thinks! (I love you Eva)
A Georgia really religious femme lesbian and an Alabama butch who will fight you!
Disabled rep!

Is there anyone around here who knows where this scene comes from? Can I find it somewhere? Because I can't find it anywhere, I've been looking for it for YEARS and I only have this gif, the script and this photo.
Is there any special edition of the movie, like, I don't know, the 30th anniversary that has it? I'M BEGGING.

Fried green tomatoes is such an underrated movie. I love it so much. It’s got it all, 1920s southern accents, a queer couple that is never a ‘couple’ but it’s heavily implied and they raise a boy together, it’s set in my home state, and of course, the white shn-azi gets what he gets.
I never understood why my mom loved it so much (beyond it being a very good movie). I understand now, but that’s her secret to keep.

Mild rant. I really love the movie Fried Green tomatoes and I feel like it’s an older movie that is not as popular as movies or shows that were able to have a prominent fan base still making art for it today.
If you haven’t seen it. Run.
To Netflix.
To a video store if you still have one.
To your nearest southern woman.
To your local gay who loves it as much as I do
This movie is one I watched as a child and at each age I realized a new interesting facet about it.
Without spoiling it I can say it’s about southern women at two different times. One story is set in ~1920 and one is set in ~1980. Both stories are interwoven as Ninny (a family member of Idgie) tells the story of Idgie and Ruth to an initially confused housewife (Evelyn) who grows to love the stories and applies them to her own life.
While Idgie and Ruth are technically the main characters, Kathy Bates as Evelyn steals every scene.
This last year was called the summer of girlhood with Taylor Swift and Barbie stealing the eye of the media but this movie embodies girlhood for me. From the many ways you can love a person to the very different examples of feminine endurance in each time.
It’s very southern which caused the book to be rejected from publishing initially with the idea that many people couldn’t relate to it. It was published under the title “Fried Green Tomatoes at The Whistle-stop Cafe” and later was turned into a film that showed me what to expect from people and how they should be treated.
Now, I can go on and on about an old movie (and I have) but I hope this little rant helps you add a wonderful title to your to be watched list.

Summary: "My son will grow up with a name he can be proud to bear," Ruth said. "He has no right to the name Jamison – as you have pointed out," she continued, "and while there remains breath in my body he will not be subjected to the indignity of the name of Bennett."
