Today's Mood

Happy birthday, Sally Field!


M'Lynn Eatenton (Sally Field),
Steel Magnolias

"Your colors and 'pink' and 'pink.'"

M'Lynn doesn't get anywhere near the best lines in Steel Magnolias... so I'm looking for y'all to throw one of the choice bon mots in the comments! I love this movie like gay porn. Which it basically is.

"When it comes to suffering, she's right up there with Elizabeth Taylor"

Gah, I just remembered my favorite M'Lynn line that I should've used:

"Drink yer juice, Shelby!"

I need to find more occasions to yell that at the boyfriend.

Actually, M'Lynn *does* have my favorite line in that movie! Sally's deadpan delivery of "I guess we can't hide it any longer...Shelby has been driving nails up her arms!" cracks me up everytime. Hee.

Jason Adams said...

Hee. That is a good one. My favorite line in the movie is Dolly's and it's all in her delivery: "Ah'm jus' screamin' at my huuuuuuuuusbin; I ken do that any tahm."

"My reception? My Reception; Pink Silk bunting over any thing that stands still. Every pink flower west of the MIssissippi! Wedding cake in the parlor and the groom's cake, hiden in the car port.
Momma and I agree on one thing; THE GROOMS CAKE! It's in the shape of giant armadila."
"An Armadila?"
"Yes, Jackson wanted a cake in the shape of a giant amrmadila and he's got an aunt down in Shreveport whom makes em.."
"It's repulsive. It has gray icing. I can't imagine how you make gray icining?!"
"An the cake part is red velvet BLOOD RED....."

I could go on, but this is my first post and I just climaxed.
