It may sound corny, but it’s definitely true that friends are forever — at least the good ones. The ladies of Sweet Magnolias care so much about each other that they will run to each other’s sides to help in a crisis, even if it’s early in the morning. The first season of this Netflix show is funny and dramatic, and it’s only the beginning, as the second season has a lot of potential storylines.
This Netflix drama has one of the most compelling portrayals of best friends on TV, and there are a handful of movies that keep the same vibes going strong. From comedies to dramas, there are tons of films that tell friendship stories. These movies will bring a tear to everyone’s eyes, whether from laughing or crying — or both.
10 Wine Country (2019)
Everyone can relate to Netflix’s Wine Country, and like Sweet Magnolias, it’s a movie about best friends who have known each other for a really long time.
Sure, the main characters in this film might have a lot more problems than Dana Sue, Maddie, and Helen do, as they are keeping a lot of secrets and pain from each other. But the feeling of spending time with close girlfriends (and enjoying some drinks) is the same.
9 Waiting To Exhale
In the 1995 movie Waiting To Exhale, four women are the best of friends. Based on the novel by Terry McMillan, Gloria (Loretta Devine), Bernadine (Angela Bassett), Robin (Lela Rochon), and Savannah (Whitney Houston) lean on each other as they talk about everything happening in their romantic lives.
The movie is very powerful, as the women are able to move on from what is troubling them, and they’re all intelligent with their own careers and dynamic personal lives.
8 Steel Magnolias (1989)
Fans of Sweet Magnolias definitely have to check out the classic film Steel Magnolias, as the 1989 film has a lot in common with the Netflix drama.
A group of friends live in Louisiana and a lot of the action happens around the old-fashioned beauty salon. The film has a lot of charm and it paints a picture of life in a Southern small town.
7 Book Club (2018)
Readers love seeing movies based on their favorite books, even if it doesn’t always work out so well and some important things are altered.
What about a movie that is actually about a book club? This 2018 film might seem a little silly, as it’s about women reading 50 Shades Of Grey, but they support one another and want the best for each other, so it’s got the same feeling as Sweet Magnolias.
6 The Jane Austen Book Club (2007)
This light-hearted movie, which was released in 2007, stars Emily Blunt, Amy Brenneman, and Maria Bello as a group of characters who start a book club that reads Jane Austen novels.
Sweet Magnolias: 5 Likable Characters (& 5 Fans Can’t Stand)
It’s a sweet movie for people who like stories of friendship and romance. The group leans on each other and they all start seeing big changes in their love lives.
5 You’ve Got Mail (1998)
While popular ’90s film You’ve Got Mail is set in New York City, the neighborhood surrounding Kathleen Kelly’s (Meg Ryan) children’s bookstore feels like a small town. She knows all of her customers and she’s friendly with many authors who come and do readings on a regular basis.
Just like the characters in Serenity help each other, Kathleen’s friends and coworkers are there when Joe Fox (Tom Hanks) ends up destroying her whole life with his big box store. Kathleen is also a very old-fashioned person who would be pretty at home in a small town.
4 It’s Complicated (2009)
For Jake (Alec Baldwin) and Jane (Meryl Streep), staying divorced proves more difficult than they thought it would be, as they start seeing each other again — but this time in secret.
The 2009 movie It’s Complicated features all the great hallmarks of a Nancy Meyers movie, from the perfect kitchen to the glam setting. It’s also a storyline that Dana Sue on Sweet Magnolias can relate to, as her ex shows up at the end of season 1 and she realizes that pushing away thoughts of her past isn’t going to work anymore.
3 Mystic Pizza (1998)
Before Julia Roberts took on her most famous roles, she starred in the 1988 film Mystic Pizza as Daisy, a young woman who works in a pizza shop with her sister Kat (Annabelle Gish). Their friend Jojo (Lili Taylor) is there with them, too, and they’re having a great time being young and trying to find themselves.
The movie is perfect for fans of Sweet Magnolias as it has many similar themes, including how stifling small-town life can be and how girlfriends are the only way to make it through. It’s easy to see Maddie, Helen, and Dana Sue in this movie, a few decades younger and working at a pizza shop.
2 The Big Chill (1983)
While the reason for their gathering is much darker than anything happening in the first season of Sweet Magnolias, a group of old friends comes together in the 1983 movie The Big Chill.
They might not hang out as much as the women of Serenity, but life has pulled them in different directions and they don’t all live in the same place. One thing is for certain, though: their bond has never been broken, and that’s very moving.
1 Sweet Home Alabama (2002)
What if Maddie, Dana Sue, or Helen left their small town of Serenity? It seems like they would come right back as they love their hometown so much.
In the Reese Witherspoon comedy Sweet Home Alabama, her character Melanie thinks that she’s left her home behind and that she’s a real New Yorker now, but she can’t help but fall in love with small-town life again when she comes back.
