In the book, Ninnie Threadgoode dies at the end. In the movie, after she leaves the nursing home (and finds that her home has been demolished) she goes to live with Evelyn, so she's there when Evelyn discovers that Idgie is still alive.
Also IIRC the movie totally cuts the weight-loss camp bit, which can only be an improvement.
