Flame Me If You Want... But I Cry Every Time I Watch "Steel Magnolias"

[arwalden]

You know the scene... M'Lynn's "why-why-WHY?!" breakdown right after Shelby's graveside service.

Then I laugh and laugh and laugh!

P.S. Oh-my-god. It's been nearly 15 years since that movie was released.

2. My mom can't watch the "insulin shock" scene. She swears that is

exactly what happens to me (others have mentioned it also). She literally started to panic when she saw it.

All I know is, it freaked me out the first time I saw it.

3. I'll tell ya what...

You can go watch Steel Magnolias every 6 months with my wife. Once was enough for me.

7. Awww, I know the scene. *sniff* heartbreaking

I like Sally Field anyways Great movie and lots of funny scenes, if you can handle the tear jerker part of the movie. *sniffle*

9. SM is pretty good

it makes me cry too. :hands Allen a hankie:

Another good one for seeing southern women in our natural habitat is "Fried Green Tomatoes". Man, that movie is way too close to home! The secret's in the sauce! :scared:

10. That is my all time favorite movie scene EVER

That and the part where Olympia Dukakis tells the kid about Wheeza the witch!

I love that movie and can recite all the lines along with it.

He's so confused he doesn't know whether to scratch his watch or wind his BUTT!

11. I cry

at the end of "An Affair to Remember" with Cary Grant and Deb Kerr
at the end of "The Color Purple"
during the "Philadelphia Story" when Tom Hanks is crying , and listening to opera, as he is dying of AIDS



those 3 get me EVERYTIME.

[arwalden]

12. Philadelphia does that to me too... the movie, not the city. Also...

... the final scene in Long Time Companion when all the friends who were lost "come back" at the end. If only.

16. Aww. I've never seen it, Allen.

It's a tearjerker, huh? Westside Story does the same thing to me.
