“That’s what I love about reading: one tiny thing will interest you in a book, and that tiny thing will lead you onto another book, and another bit there will lead you onto a third book. It’s geometrically progressive — all with no end in sight, and for no other reason than sheer enjoyment.”

fried green tomatoes halloween costumes!

they agreed to stick to a bee theme, however ruth was not pleased with idgie’s take on the prompt (boo-bee).

ruth, of course, scolded her, both for the vulgar joke and ruining nice sheets. at the end of her angry rambling, she tacked on a “what jesus would think of such a thing,” and idgie did her best to withhold all comments about what jesus might think about breasts to not further escalate the situation.

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.

Hey Tumblr, there's a new historical/period comedy series on Netflix which you will love! It's called 1670! It's about Polish nobility and their peasant-thralls. However, Netflix is not promoting it to international audiences, bc it's Polish, even though there are subtitles available in so many languages!

It has:

Great Humour

Amazing Polish Folk Music

Historical Costumes that are not Western!

CANON LESBIANS

One of the said lesbians is a repressed lesbian w religious trauma & the subplot lasts longer than one episode

Priest Jakub

A really good combination of making historical and ahistorical jokes

And much more!

Seriously, give it a watch bc I'd hate to see only my Polish mutuals watch it, it's new, it's fresh, it's witty, not another remake, and it shows another culture & history! (aren't you tired of watching yet another show on the English monarchy, then 1670 is there for ya)

#1670 #1670 netflix #just finished it and actually loved it lmao #also didn't expect the lesbian love story but I'm totally here for it
