In conclusion I would like to say that the story of Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Café is a tale that has some factual merit, and is one that defines what true friendship really is. The main character Idgie is one that almost everyone would describe as the best example of a true friend. She was willing to sacrifice her freedom to protect Big George from the electric chair. Idgie also helped to provide a loving and caring environment for Ruth and her son.
Idgie defied violence in the south and refused to go along with how society thought she should act, which in my opinion greatly contributed to her identity and her persona. Idgie chose her friends based off of how she felt and was blind to race or gender which in the 1930’s was very uncommon for a young women and it is because of this I feel that she sets a positive example for other women especially Evelyn Couch.
