This timeless rom-com is loved by many, but did you know it's based on a real friendship?
Rom-coms are one of the most beloved movie genres. They entertain us, and maybe even tug at our hearts unexpectedly. There are thousands of rom-coms and there are a couple that significantly define this particular fan-favorite genre, shaping it into how we know it today. And, if you were to ask some folk what their favorite rom-com is, the chances are they would mention When Harry Met Sally… .
'When Harry Met Sally’s Legacy Still Endures Directed by Rob Reiner, the man behind A Few Good Men , When Harry Met Sally… follows the two titular characters played by Billy Crystal and Meg Ryan, aka the rom-com queen of the generation. We see them meeting for the first time right after their college graduation when they share a ride to New York where they are planning to follow their dreams. They do not connect, and they part ways once they reach their destination.
When Harry Met Sally… is an instant classic because, for one, it nails the best-friends-to-lovers while still managing to produce enough amount of angst. We got a years-long love story about two hopeless romantics who keep missing each other. What mostly drives this cheesy yet compelling story is the chemistry between Crystal and Ryan themselves. They have a natural chemistry from the get-go, from platonic to angry to romantic.
According to author Kristin Marguerite Doidge in an article for Lit Hub , Ephron initially declined to take part in Reiner’s new idea about this rom-com because she did not agree with some of the messages as it was mostly from the perspective of a man, about his bachelorhood. So, she passes on this job. However, after a few months, the two meet up again. Reiner polishes the story and it piqued Ephron’s interest, so she decides to join the production.
