This story of three generations of women in one family boasts strong performances from Gena Rowlands, Mimi Rogers and Susan May Pratt. Charlie Kate Birch (Rowlands) is a feisty herbal healer in Thirties North Carolina whose daughter (Rogers) and granddaughter (Pratt) carve their own individual way in the world. A funny and charming tale, if not as memorable as the similarly themed Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistlestop Cafe.
