‘When Harry Met Sally…’

Can men and women ever be just friends? That’s the question of the ages presented in the rom-com classic When Harry Met Sally… Taking course over 12 years and three months, Harry (Billy Crystal) and Sally (Meg Ryan) couldn’t be any more different. The two first meet on a cross-country road trip, only to clash over the nature of relationships — Harry insists men and women can’t be friends, while Sally disagrees. Over the years, fate keeps putting them back together one way or another, reuniting them at different stages of life and love. Following a couple of failed relationships and romantic near-misses, it soon becomes obvious that no matter how hard they try to deny their feelings, the two are meant to reach each other.

She insists the two leave their names on a dollar bill in a secondhand book. If they’re meant to be, they’ll find each other again.
