Pros: Brilliant acting. Brilliant touching story.
Cons: None

Pros: Tom Skerrit, strong women pictured beautifully
Cons: Sally Field was rarely joyous in this one
Summary: I thought of this movie over the weekend thanks to a pregnancy that wasn't supposed to be and the happiness that resulted from it. If that's not enough to scare off the average male viewer I'm not sure what is. Sure, Steel Magnolias is ... read more

Pros: timeless, emotional
Cons: makes me cry every time even though I know the outcome
Summary: Steel Magnolias...where can I even begin?

Pros: An amazing cast of truly southern women of every taste.
Cons: I really cannot handle Julia dying. It's so sad.
Summary: Steel Magnolias, directed by Herbert Ross, is by far one of the best films I've seen in this genre. There is little negative to say about the film and again I'll try to withhold my Julia Roberts bias, but in this case it may be near impossible.
