CAN TWO FRIENDS SLEEP TOGETHER AND STILL LOVE EACH OTHER IN THE MORNING? In 1989, after the huge success of This is Spinal Tap, Stand by Me and The Princess Bride, director Rob Reiner would go on to collaborate with Nora Ephron (You've Got Mail), Billy Crystal (City Slickers) and Meg Ryan (Innerspace) to radically redefine the romantic comedy with When Harry Met Sally. Harry Burns (Billy Crystal) and Sally Albright (Meg Ryan) share a ride to New York City. Initially, Harry's bravado and Sally's innocence clash, particularly over the question "can men and women be friends?" Despite this, over many years of chance encounters, a deep friendship develops between the two. As their connection blossoms, a sudden lapse of judgment forces both Harry and Sally to answer once and for all: can men and women truly just be friends? With a timeless and Academy Award-nominated screenplay, career best performances from its stars, as well as flawless supporting performances by Carrie Fisher (Star Wars) and Bruno Kirby (City Slickers), it's impossible not to love When Harry Met Sally.!
