The American SetSteel Magnolias Brings Dolly Parton's Beauty Parlor Back to the Big Screen
Nashville's own is heading back to theaters. Dolly Parton's turn as the warm, welcoming beautician in Steel Magnolias returns to AMC Theatres this week, giving audiences another chance to catch the singer on the big screen in one of her most beloved roles. The film has long held a place in the pantheon of Southern classics, and its return offers a fresh reason to revisit Parton's easy, hospitable charm on screen. For a star so identified with warmth both on stage and off, the timing feels like a homecoming.
