From the movie
This scene is in the Collector's Edition DVD. Idgie is going up to see Ruth on the front porch of their house. What I found interesting about this added scene is that it makes me further believe that in the movie version, the implication is clear that Ninny (in the present day) IS Idgie. I know the book is completely different, and in the book it is explicitly clear that Idgie and Ninny are not the same person. However, I believe the movie was changed from the book, and the fact that Idgie and Ruth's house is depicted in this scene seals it for me!
Note the photo below this one, at the
end where Ninny is upset that her house is gone. Well, unless Ruth, Idgie,
Buddy Jr., Cleo, Ninny and Albert all lived in the same house, Ninny's house is
located in exactly the same spot as Ruth and Idgie's house!!
Ninny is sitting in front of the spot where HER house (where she says she lived for more than 40 years!) is gone. As indicated by the buildings in the backgound, this is the same location where Ruth and Idgie's house was located.

A gift shop is located there, where I
spent a considerable amount of cash on Fried Green Tomato souvenirs.
