About this event
Directed by Herbert Ross. 118 minutes. Rated PG. In English. This screening is part of our “Makers at the Movies” series! Attendees are invited to bring knitting, crochet, fiber arts, or drawing projects to work on during the film. The lights will remain partially on to accommodate making. Presented in partnership with Olde School Fiber & Craft. Please note: glitter and wet materials (such as liquid glue or ink) are not permitted. Robert Harling adapted and expanded his stage hit, a character study set in small-town Louisiana that celebrates friendship among a group of strong-willed women who discuss their lives—especially the shortcomings of their men—at Truvy’s beauty salon. Julia Roberts earned her first Oscar nomination as Best Supporting Actress for her portrayal of stubborn Shelby. Harling costars as the minister.
