The other morning I watched Trisha Yearwood’s cooking show and she had a Steel Magnolias theme on her show. I love that movie so I decided to watch it again!!
What an awesome cast in this movie!! Sally Field, Shirley MaClaine Olumpia Dukakis, Julia Roberts, Dolly Parton, Daryl Hannah. Also Tom Skerritt, Sam Shepard, Dylan McDermott.
It is set in modern day Luuisiana, story of a close knit circle of friend’s whose lives come together!!
Here are favorite quotes of mine in the movie!
Shelby: “I would rather have 30 minutes of wonderful ~ than a lifetime of nothing special”
Ouiser: “I’m not crazy M’Lynn, I’ve just been in a very bad mood for 40 years”
Clairee: “If you can’t say anything nice about anybody, come sit by me!”
Truvy: “Smile, it adds face value”
Ouiser: “I’m an old Southern woman, we’re supposed to wear funny hats & ugly clothes & grow vegetables in dirt”
Ouiser: ” A dirty mind is a terrible thing to waste”
M’Lynn: “Men are supposed to be made of steel”
Clairee: ” Ouisa you know I love you more than my luggage”
“You are too twisted for color T.V.”

The scene where the family is playing games and telling transplant jokes was hilarious!
“Mama- give me all of your internal organs”
Movie to watch~”A Tale of Two Kidneys”

This movie holds its place proudly in my collection and I cry every time that I see it!!
It is a heart felt story and I love the connection that these people have in the story!!
