A review:
A delightful film about the gossip-filled lives of a group of women in Louisiana (ostensibly set in the year of its release, 1989, though often it seems to be several decades earlier), Steel Magnolias is lovely, with a very fine cast led by Sally Field and featuring Olympia Dukakis, Shirley MacLaine, Dolly Parton, Julia Roberts and Daryl Hannah. Parton plays the owner of a beauty parlour where the others gather to share their news and speculate upon others’; and the film traces the life of Roberts from her wedding day to just after her funeral.
Aiding the film no end is Georges Delerue’s outrageously beautiful score, which provides perfect accompaniment to the film and makes a ravishing album. After the composer moved to America following his Oscar win for 1979’s A Little Romance it’s fair to say that the calibre of film he worked on was not generally quite on par with the works of his earlier collaborators like François Truffaut, Alan Resnais, Jean-Luc Godard et al; and while his music certainly changed, it was still tremendously high-quality almost every time – and this is a rare case of him working on a Hollywood film actually worthy of his talents.
