Amazon.com essential video:
Based on Robert Harling's play, this comedy-drama directed by Herbert Ross (The Turning Point) follows several years in the lives of women who regularly see one another at a beauty shop in their small Louisiana town. The story deepens as Julia Roberts, playing a serious diabetic and the daughter of Sally Field, goes downhill in her health. But as an ensemble piece, this is one of those enjoyably lumpy tearjerkers with many years' worth of stored truths suddenly being shared between the characters, lots of grievances aired, that sort of thing. Daryl Hannah and Shirley MacLaine assume the most eccentric roles, Dolly Parton the most fun, and Olympia Dukakis the most dignified, while Sally Field essentially provides the moral and emotional center of the movie. --Tom Keogh

I'll never understand the male stereotype that says you cannot admit to liking anything that doesn't involve bloodshed, sports or nudity. Sure, as a guy I can understand why those three things are appealing to my gender (although I am far from a sports fan) but I have never been one to hide my deeper feelings or emotions. I cry whenever I want to; I have deep and meaningful conversations with my male friends and I definitely watch whatever it is that I want to regardless of the intended fan base.
I say this, not because I think that this is a particularly good movie but because this seems to be a popular movie that men feel unabashedly ashamed in either watching or enjoying or, god forbid, crying at.
The film tells the story of a group of women who frequent the same hair salon and become a central part of each others lives over the years. There is M'Lynn, the kind hearted mother who only wants what is best for her daughter Shelby, who just so happens to be a serious diabetic. There is Truvy, who owns the salon, and Annelle, her new employee with a background no one is too sure about. There is the loudmouthed Ouiser and her loyal friend Clairee.
Together they make for one lively bunch.
The film mostly focuses on M'Lynn and Shelby as they struggle to come to terms with Shelby's growing independence. Shelby wants to get married and have children, but the doctors have warned her that childbirth will not be a smart move ... Read More

One of the Funniest, and saddest, movies made. But, even after the sad instances, there would be a spirit lifting line or scene. I laughed hard and cried harder.
