No kidding... I cringe when I hear her speak in that movie, but I still LOVE
Steal Magnolias!

Baltimore's accent is a little southern. I say my "O"s like they do so I have had more than one person ask if I'm from Baltimore since I've lived here. I laugh then say a few more things until they hear the southern accent and realize their mistake. There are many accents here, though. Check out the Baltimore "Hon". It's priceless!
