Steel Magnolias

A bittersweet comedy set in the American deep south featuring an all-star, multi-generational cast including Julia Roberts, Shirley MacLaine, Sally Field and Daryl Hannah. Based on the stageplay by Robert Harling.

Despite their differences, beautiful and impulsive Shelby (Roberts), her strong-willed mother M'Lynn (Field), beauty parlour owner Truvy (Dolly Parton), elegant widow Clairee (Olympia Dukakis), sharp-tongued Ouiser (MacLaine) and mousy newcomer Annelle (Hannah) enjoy a friendship that spans the boundaries of age and status.
