MODERN CULTURE CHANGED, THIS IS A ROMANTIC COMEDY CLASSIC

Rating: 8/10 (23 December 2003)

Sort of a follow up of "Annie Hall." classic based in New York, also can be used as a holiday film as well a dating film. First, fine directing by Rob Reiner, uses documentary couples which are SO CUTE AND COMICAL as a segue way to
the next segment as story develops. It's mainly the relationship between Harry Burns played by funny Billy Crystal and the intelligent/dizzy beautiful yet
versatile Meg Ryan played Sally Albright, a becoming classic actress should get Kathrine Hepburn type scripts made her Best Actress of 20th century. IMHO.
Also, as a secondary developing relationship is Jess played by Bruce "Bruno"
Kirby Jr. and Marie played by Carrie Fisher which become best friends with
Harry and Sally perspectively, do fine supporting acting roles. I believe the first half of 20th century some movies gave respect of reflecting the culture,when
sleeping with your friend then love of your life was taboo, like in "It Happened One night" pushing moral envelope was "An Affair To Remember" and classic
similar throwback fine romantic comedy "Sleepless in Seattle." Both received
FAIR ratings ironically. My heartthrob Meg Ryan stars in it, is well becoming a classic actress as well comic/actor Tom Hanks. The moral issue once called
fornication, now is normal lifestyle for most, "When Harry Mets Sally" is a classic fairs with "Annie Hall," should be in Top 250 IMDb List. My folks of 1920s stayed with moral traditional role as orthodox catholics, when choosing a lifelong
partner. Religion played significant role from dating to marriage, unlike
Hollywood stars past lived like today's standards. Even though influential,
Hollywood is not the blame for the moral culture changes, we baby boomers
turned away from Orthodox to Reform (Rebellion). Moral issue aside, one
intensely memorable moments, was Sally (Meg Ryan) fake public orgasm in the
diner as another patroness sitting by mesmerized," I want what she's having." 11/10 for that segment. All in all, A Romantic Comedy Classic! Both male and
females will enjoy. Oh Harry! (wish I was playing Harry with Sally. (Meg is one of my Favorite Hollywood Hotties)
