Very well acted drama about five very different Southern women and how they cope with the events that shape their lives.
Director Herbert Ross really allows the ladies to take over the show, and they all put in strong performances. Sally Field, Shirley Maclaine, Daryl Hannah, Dolly Parton and Olympia Dukakis are all very good, whilst Julia Roberts is excellent. Also stars Tom Skerritt, Sam Shepard, Dylan McDermott and Kevin J. O'Connor.
Humour and drama are well balanced in a film whose tragic ending will surely pull at your heart strings. Engaging and at times very funny, "Steel Magnolias" is an enjoyable film.
