God bless all those who made this amazing movie possible! I laughed, and I envied their friendship and this small town community vibe, and I cried more than once, and I literally lived through the cemetery scene, and I laughed aloud when Clairee pushed Louisa for M'Lynn to hit her, and thus relieved M'Lynn's pain and desperation and turned it all into a good laughter through tears. I laughed with them! And yes, life goes on... Such a beautiful movie, no extra artificial drama, just life as it is. So thankful I got to watch it in 2023!
