USA | 117 min | PG | Dir. Herbert Ross   "A young beautician, newly arrived in a small Louisiana town, finds work at the local salon, where a small group of women share a close bond of friendship, and welcome her into the fold." - IMDB   " 'Steel Magnolias' is essentially a series of comic one-liners leading up to a teary tragedy, but let it be said that the one-liners are mostly funny and the tragedy deserves most, but not all, of the tears." - Roger Ebert   Watch the trailer here: https://youtu.be/d8nojAKKijA?si=-oT7WwV7TxbvIuJ7         For information on available assistive content for WUD Film screenings, please visit the Assistive Movie Screenings in the Marquee Theater page .   Visit our Informed Moviegoing Resources page for links to resources that explore film ratings and content alerts.
