Sweet November ( not a good idea to watch with sisters - 25 girls balling all at the same time)

I would totally have to agree on Sweet November. A bunch of sisters got together this summer and had a girls night and rented it not knowing what a tearjerker it was. But it was sooo good.

I have only ever cried during two movies....

The Thorn Birds, and My Best Friend's Wedding.....

These two just hit way too close to home for me....

Evita

I sobbed through the end of it

I'm not much of a crier when it comes to movies/tv.

But the Ally McBeal where Billy died...that one had me totally broken up

Steel Magnolias is a movie about a bunch of southern women. Focuses around a salon and a woman who has a severe case of diabetes.

Sweet November...I personally did not like the movie. It's about a guy who's a jerk and a woman who claims she can change him in a month. He falls in love with her (of course) but she's dying of cancer.

The woman on whom the main character is based is a Phi Mu. If you look closely, you can see Julia Roberts wearing the Phi Mu badge. She was given honorary membership so that she would be allowed to wear it for filming.

Revolving around Truvy's Beauty Parlor in a small parish in modern-day Louisiana, STEEL MAGNOLIAS is the story of a close-knit circle of friends whose lives come together there. As the picture opens, we find Drum Eatenton (Tom Skerrit) shooting birds in the trees of his back yard in preparation for his daughter's (Julia Roberts) wedding reception that afternoon. Shortly thereafter, M'Lynn (Sally Field) and Shelby (Drum's wife and daughter) depart for Truvy's to get their hair done for the wedding.

"Just the sweetest thing," Annelle Depuy Desoto (who may or may not be married because her marriage may not be legal) is introduced to Truvy's customers as her new "glamour technician." While in the chairs, the sour-tempered Ouiser Boudreaux shows up and entertains the assemblage with her barbs. It seems that the only one of the group who truly understands Ouiser is Clairee who is recently widowed and looking for a diversion. As she says, later in the picture, "If you can't find anything good to say about anybody, come sit by me." Rife with humor and heartbreak, these "Steel Magnolias" make us laugh and cry as the realities of their lives in tiny Chickapenn Parish unfolds.
