- 'Steel Magnolias' was based on a true story. Actor and writer Robert Harling wrote the play based on the true story of his sister, Susan Harling Robinson, who died from complications with diabetes.
- The movie offered healing. Harling wanted his mother to leave the set when they filmed Julia Roberts's death scene, but his mother insisted on staying so she could see Julia get up and walk away after the director yelled cut.
- The film gave back to others. The nurses and other hospital staff seen in Julia Roberts' life-support scenes are actual medical professionals who tended to Harling's sister in her final days.
- It took 10 days to write. "The events that inspired it were so powerful that, after I found the story arena, it just poured out into my typewriter in a 24/7 tsunami of Southernness," Harling told Garden & Gun in 2013 about the speedy writing process.
