A rare occurrence is a film that has all the ingredients. It has the acting. The comedy. The drama. The settings. The ups and the downs. If you were asked to put all of them together, and think of a film, the variety is very few. But, from time to time th ...

Pros: Tom Skerrit, strong women pictured beautifully
Cons: Sally Field was rarely joyous in this one

Cons: makes me cry every time even though I know the outcome

Steel Magnolias...where can I even begin?

When this movie came out, I refused to watch it. I have noticed that most movies based in Louisiana tend to make ALL of the people living here seem like uneducated hicks with bad language problems, so...

Pros: Shows the strength in women's friendships
Cons: I love this movie, no cons here!

I know that by now I have seen Steel Magnolias at least 100 times. Although I have seen it SO many times, it "steel" makes me cry. Maybe it is because I love the southern charm of the movie, or perhaps it is the fact that three of my...

Cons: darryl hannah
