Harry (Billy Crystal) and Sally (Meg Ryan) first meet at college, thrown together on an 18-hour drive to New York. It's not exactly love at first sight.
Years pass before they meet again, both having suffered the traumas of break-up and divorce. They begin an unlikely on-off friendship – or is it something deeper? – complicated by the fact that Harry is set in his cynical attitude, convinced that male-female relationships are always based on attraction. Sally meanwhile, won't countenance one-night stands or settling for less. Can the two stay close without romance getting in the way?
Containing one of the funniest set pieces in modern American cinema and a succession of snappy one-liners, When Harry Met Sally... offers terrific performances and Nora Ephron's perfectly witty script, culminating in a delightful journey through the false starts and surprising joys of love.
