People think this is about a bunch of women in a beauty salon, but that's not the point. It just happens to take place at a beauty shop, but it's about life and death, and the choices we make. Life does... Full review

but that is what I love about it. I watched this last night and was amazed at Sally Field's performance as a mother. She was so genuine. The discussions that occurred are real to female relationships. My husband rolls his eyes... Full review

But Olympia cuts through them all to create Miss Clairee Belcher, one of the greatest cinematic characters. Funny, touching and littered with stars like Sally Field, Julia Roberts and Dolly Parton. ... Full Review

STEEL MAGNOLIAS celebrates the wit and wisdom of a circle of Southern ladies as they curl, tease, and spray their hair into submission.
