DESCRIPTION:Screenwriter Callie Khouri makes her directorial debut with thi
 s adaptation of a pair of popular novels by author Rebecca Wells\, Divine S
 ecrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood and Little Altars Everywhere. Sandra Bullock
  stars as Sidda Lee Walker\, a New York playwright who opens a can of emoti
 onal worms with her estranged\, boozy mother\, Vivi (Ellen Burstyn)\, when 
 she discusses her painful childhood and particularly Vivi's less-than-envia
 ble mothering skills in a Time magazine article. The eccentric Louisiana dr
 ama queen Vivi has already been barred from her daughter's oft-delayed wedd
 ing to her fiancÃ©\, Connor (Angus Macfadyen)\, so the article sends her 
 into a rage. Coming to the rescue of the relationship are Necie (Shirley Kn
 ight)\, Caro (Maggie Smith)\, and Teensy (Fionnula Flanagan)\, a trio of bi
 ckering women\, who\, along with Vivi\, formed a secret society of feminist
  empowerment and friendship 60 years earlier that they dubbed the "Ya-Ya Si
 sterhood." The Ya-Yas kidnap Sidda and bring her home to Louisiana\, where 
 they reveal to Sidda via a carefully maintained scrapbook her mother's pain
 ful past (with Vivi portrayed in flashback by Ashley Judd)\, effecting a ra
 pprochement between mother and daughter. Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sister
 hood also stars James Garner. ~ Karl Williams\, All Movie Guide
