Drama starring Kathy Bates
Year: 1991
Year in film: 1920s ? (-1980s)
Country: USA
Who in bibs: Julian ~10, boy 10, Idgie 24, women, men
Available on DVD: yes
I own: no
Bib occurrence: medium ??
Rating:  6/10 ?
Rating: ******
Comment: Boys, girl or better young woman as "tomboy", I think other women and men in bibs. So something for everybody. I found it during research. How could I miss this?

Pic 1 showing (Reid Binion "Pet Sematary II"), I now think it's Grayson Fricke (as Binian wore Glasses) as young Julian in dark simple bibs, buttons instead of braces  (I think flashback scenes of the 1920s or maybe 1930s). Also a chubby black boy at the funeral (end ?, also running), pic 3. Mary Stuart Masterson as 24 yotomboy Idgie in faded blue bibs (or shortalls) with a belt and a straw hat (unpictured). Also other women and men in bibs (and aprons). Farm setting including a school scene.

Some scenes are set in the late 1980s, but not sure if showing bibs as well.

I heard of it before, but I haven't seen the complete movie (maybe some time ago). So needs to be rechecked for quality and amount of scenes.

I assume few good scenes (of the boys).

So rating 6 for now only.

Update: a very nice sitting scene of Reid Binion, also a pic of the woman and school
