Is ninny idgie in fried green tomatoes?

In the movie, it's strongly implied (though never stated outright) that Idgie and Ninny are the same person. The book is completely different. In the book, a detailed account of Ninny's life (both before and after she came to live with the Threadgoodes) make up a large section of the story. A movie which includes all of the plot from the book would have to be several times longer than the movie that was eventually made. Idgie survives in the book, while Ninny dies as Evelyn was told.
