Fried Green
Tomatoes: "In the tradition of the Old Southern storyteller,
FRIED GREEN TOMATOES AT THE WHISTLE STOP CAFE weaves together distant
lives and cherished times. FRIED GREEN TOMATOES is the tale of family
and friendship in rural Alabama. It is a remembrance of youth and one
young woman's invincible spirit. Like the best of tales, it connects
with experiences we all share: weddings and funerals, recreation and
retribution, morals, memorable meals, and, of course, the occasional
murder.
FRIED GREEN TOMATOES AT THE WHISTLE STOP CAFE - a title which signifies
something that brings people together - ends with a deep understanding
of the importance of friendships. Friendships which have the power to
make family from strangers. And, in the Southern storytelling tradition,
friendships forged through the power of words as well as deeds."

Fabulous Baker Boys: Frank (Beau Bridges) and Jack Baker (Jeff
Bridges) are professional musician who play small clubs. Times are
changing and dates are becoming more difficult to get so they interview
female singers. They finally decides on Susie Diamond (Michelle
Pfeiffer), a former 'escort' who needs some refinement, but the act
begins to take again. While they are now successful, both Frank and Jack
have problems with their life on the road. Susie becomes the agent and
makes them re-evaluate where they are going, and how honest they have
been with each other. When the relationship between Susie and Jack -
younger, less committed, but more talented than Frank - briefly becomes
more than professional, tensions surface between all three!
