Free Essays on Fried Green Tomatoes

Compare & Contrast: Deaths in â€Å"Fried Green Tomatoes† â€Å"Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe† by Fannie Flagg is a wonderfully written book that blends an on-going drama of a small town. But the movie that portrays this book is different in many ways. One aspect of the novel that is portrayed differently in the movie is the deaths of Buddy, Ruth and Frank Bennet.

Buddy is seen to be flirting with Ruth, who has come to visit and happens to be attending Leona’s wedding. Buddy, Ruth and Idgie calmly take a stroll through a running river to a spot over the railroad tracks. While kissing Buddy, Ruth’s hat is blown away down to the tracks. Buddy politely goes after it to impress Ruth. After finally catching it, he suddenly realizes that his foot is caught in the rails when he hears the oncoming train. He frantically tries to free him self but is unsuccessful and is killed. In the novel too, Buddy is killed in a train accident, but the description leading up to his death differs from the movie.

Ruth is portrayed in the movie as a perfect match for the character in the book but the events leading to her ...
