   Is Steel Magnolias a good movie?

   • Steel Magnolias has jokes and characters to spare, which makes it more dangerous (and effective) when it goes for the full melodrama by the end. Director Herbert Ross' attempts to tart up the original are fussy and clumsy by turns. MacLaine is wonderful, and she ought to be.

   Is Steel Magnolias a prefeminist film?

   • Steel Magnolias is an old-fashioned "klatsch" film, a prefeminist relic in which a group of women eschew the public world of men in favor of the community of the coffee table. Their world is shown as inferior to men's in terms of power but superior to it in emotion and insight into the things that "really matter."

   The movie was written by Robert Harling, based on his own play, and directed by Herbert Ross, who choreographs wonderfully entertaining performances from all of the women in his cast – especially MacLaine as the town nut case who lurches around in overalls, towed by a big, ugly dog.
