Alabama's movie is...
Fried Green Tomatoes

Handed-down tall tales? Check. The commune of family? Check. Rich, unusual foods and recipes? Check. But the film isn't all nostalgia and pleasantries.

Ultimately, though, the movie argues human kindness always trumps adversity. Now there's some of that famed Southern comfort.
