Steel Magnolia is the Cream of the Crop this week.
It's a story about 6 women living in the modern west. They are truly Steel Magnolia. Almost all of them are gossip king. they are humorous and gracious. vulnerable yet strong. they are no Mary of Titanic but they are no dummy blond bomb shell either. Though Julia Roberts didn't give the most impressive performances in this movie but they are at least convincing. The rest of the character was so colorful that you can't resist yourself to go back to "The Golden Age" days.
there's the sassy "enterpernuer", the old slut, the preachy faithful Christian of course, the naive and innocent and the big letter M,"Mom" character, of course who can forget the smart, make sense blond bomb shell portrait by the great Dolly Parton. Sally Field is the ultimate mom.
the story express how ordinary that each lives are and how often we are intervine with each other. in a misterious and patience and loving kinda sense we support each other tru thick and thin. gossip or not, the community is one and every thing is taken care of but one or the other. any disapproval, grudges are merely an expression and we all do care. The outsider are taken in with warm hugs and the stranger becomes the familiar. the hospitality of the western society and the warmth were felt right away. though we are not discussing about racial issue, but within the white community have enough issue that they need to taken care of.
you go tru everything in life you should go tru and feelings that you should possess or aspire in that short 2 hours. life, normal or different, culture, religion, choices, birth and death. and life after that(not the spiritual and karma kind of life after death. i mean Life of the living after the death of love ones.) which is something that i always say, (though the idea was not originally from me) "why must death brings despair and sadness, why can't we all treat is with some respect or hell with a little bit of humor? our loved once would want all us to not be sad when we are gone. we'd want them to remeber us as the good one, the funny one the one that'll always be remembered as the one that bring laughter and happiness and not sadness!?"
and for those who lived on. life goes on. cherish it. live on with pride and dignity. love and happiness. and soon enough we will join our love ones in the Kingdom of heaven.
