A Movie Review: When Harry Met Sally . . .

When Harry Met Sally . . . Harry Burns (Billy Crystal) is hitching a ride with Sally Albright (Meg Ryan) from Chicago to New York. They’ve both just graduated from the University of Chicago. Sally is an optimist. Harry is already jaded. After their ride together, they go their own ways. They randomly run into each other a few years later at the airport. And then they run into each other at a bookstore, which results in a growing friendship.

I really do love this movie. I saw it recently for the first time in a number of years. Perhaps Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan are a much better movie couple, but Billy Crystal and Meg Ryan hit it off just fine.  Carrie Fisher and Bruno Kirby have fun supporting roles, especially the scene where they first meet each other via a double date.
