- It's summertime in the American South and the 35th anniversary of the release of Fried Green Tomatoes. What were we to do but watch and discuss the 1991 movie, adapted from Fannie Flagg’s original novel, and eat its namesake food, in the very place that made it famous?
So pull up a train car and settle in for a story — and if you get peckish, you can always swing by Juliette, Georgia to stop into the real Whistle Stop Cafe. - To celebrate her birth month, we finally called our mom back to the show -- just in time to talk about a movie that came out 55 years ago.
Welcome to Elaine-May June, where we tackle the 1971 classic A New Leaf -- because we love it, because our mom introduced us to it, and because talking about The Heartbreak Kid would have been such a bummer. - After covering 158 non-Ryan-Reynolds movies, we owed it to our listeners and ourselves to tag the guy in. So here he is: beloved Canadian leading man Ryan Reynolds in the 2008 "Brooksy" feature Definitely, Maybe, a movie that -- if you used only this episode as evidence -- you would swear was maybe* like our favorite movie ever?
*if not definitely - The sequel being imminent, it's become fashionable to revisit The Devil Wears Prada with a 2026 lens. So I guess that's technically what we're doing? I don't know; we watched the original 2006 movie The Devil Wears Prada, and this podcast episode is us talking about it.
- To celebrate its 40-year anniversary -- and the 10-year anniversary of us somehow not covering the movie already whoops -- we brought back Amy Pascale, pHD (physician[?] on Howard Deutch), to discuss the beloved teen rom-com-dram Pretty in Pink.

About Falling in Love Montage
Every other week, Valerie and Helen will look at a different chick flick (muff film, broad comedy, lady thriller, period movie, whathaveyou) and boil it down to its themes and how those themes affect our tender feminine emotions.
Mostly we'll just go off on tangents about Sex and the City.
We'll talk about chick flick tropes, like love triangles/squares/pentagons and sisterhood. We'll explore just how strong girl power actually is and if real vampires sparkle in the sunlight, or if that's just movie magic. And we'll reveal our (Helen's) repressed sexual feelings for Hugh Grant.
We'll get a dude's opinion, and we'll even listen to it.
