Mary Stuart. Since Fried Green Tomatos, she's been in the Top Ten. She was in SVU, too. Long, dark hair. Did I swoon, or what? I think it's fantastic that she's branched out to directing and look forward to catching her work!

Cheers, ScribGrrl!

i think it's funny that my thread got mentioned. awesome! and that kristen stewart is now being mentioned as a "lesbian icon" haha. interesting....

kristen stewart is hot. weird thing though: i just found out that my kid brother thinks so as well! and why not? apparently she has a wide range of appeal. she's even being talked about constantly as being a major "rising star" or something. which sounds so weird, considering she doesn't seem the type. but hey, if that means more roles in bigger movies, i'm all for it!

Almost.

Wow....just wow..... I.... I didnt realize that someone could get so hot in only 5 years. *prays to the lesbians gods* I hope she is gay... not for me of course but for lesbian kind!

Also, I have never read the fried green tomatoes book but definitely love the movie...ive been in arguments with people over whether they actually WERE together...now I know the truth.

Yeahh..  I saw Kirsten Stewart in THE SAFETY OF OBJECTS... she played an little girl who looked like one of the other character's little brother..
In one part of the movie she kisses a friend of hers (a girl).. so i remember her.. I saw it a long time ago though.. She did a really really great job..
I had a tiny little crush lol..

I do like the Kristen Stewart with the longer hair, and just DAMN

I definitely had a crush on Mary Stuart back in the days (whether I fully realized it or not...) And I remember part of a dialogue between her (Watts) and Keith (Eric Stolz) about boobs (her aunt (or her mother?) has big boobs and Watts was spared the same fate:

Keith: "So, what happened?"

Watts: "I got lucky." 

*LOL*

Oh yea, Kristen Stewart is hot... and 17 fer chrissakes *gasp* I'd better avert my eyes to something not underaged anymore ;p

Mary Stuart can be seen occasionally popping up on Law and Order, SVU, as the ex-cop turned psychiatrist. She also appeared on Broadway, in Nine, with Antonio Banderas. I was lucky enough to catch her in that. Who knew she could sing?

I created a thread on the spashley forum about Kristen Stewart. I just couldn't shake this vibe I kept getting from her. So I asked the members there what they thought of her. Like 2 weeks later, I saw your thread here about her and busted out laughing. I couldn't believe it! I wasn't the only one getting the "oh so " familiar vibe from her. :o)  ......I can't believe she just turned 17 a couple few weeks ago. :o(   (jailbait)

 Oh well...I'll just have to control my roaming thoughts. BTW Mary Stuart was too cool to me when I was younger *sign* I just loved her relationship in "Fried Green Tomatoes" I didn't care what people said the feelings between Idgie and Ruth were palpable (even if the writers/director tried to wipe them out).

p.s. The Spashley fans love Kristen too!

I never read the book but I absolutely loved the movie!  It's an ultimate, all time favorite and I always saw the chemistry between Idgie and Ruth.  Initially Ruth and Buddy had eyes for one another, I never believed that.  There was more chemistry and sweetness between Ruth and Idgie!  Those two had nothing but love for one another til the day Ruth died.  I always thought that Ruth and Idgie were soulmates.

I too am a MSM fan...many don't know that she is the goddaughter of Fannie Flagg, a lesbian who wrote Fried Green Tomatoes. Mary's parents are acting coaches who are well know in showbiz, and it was nice to see her bring Fannie's story to the big screen. Not making any speculation on her sexuality, but I've always enjoyed her acting. After not seeing her onscreen for a while, it was nice to see her on Law and Order SVU...according to the storyline her character and Olivia (Mariska Hargitay) were at the police academy together....is it me, or did I get the feeling that maybe MSM's character and Olivia were more than just friends during their academy days????

As for Kirsten Stewart, that young lady has grown up quite nicely....yes, she too could very well be the next icon!!!! Lovely young thing she is..she will break a few hearts before she is done.

Wow, I never knew the two were related at all.  Wonder if that's actually how MSM got cast, a little nepotism.  Whatever the reason, she's incredible in the film and I wish she got a lot more accolades from it!

Yea. I adore her. She may give off a lesbian vibe but as we write this she's probably thinking about changing her look alltogether. lol.

sorry dear.

I thought I was the only one getting the gay vibe from Kristen.
