Summary
On this week's episode of The Cine-Files, Steve Morris and John Rocha continue their Season of Rob Reiner celebrating the films of Rob Reiner with Part 2 of their deep dive and exploration of WHEN HARRY MET SALLY from 1989. Considered by many to be the greatest rom com ever made, it stars Billy Crystal and Meg Ryan as Harry and Sally along with the late Bruno Kirby and the late Carrie Fisher with a script from Nora Ephron who was nominated for an Oscar for her work. The film follows the title characters from the time they meet in Chicago and share a drive to New York City through twelve years of chance encounters in New York, and addresses the question "Can men and women ever just be friends?" It also features an excellent soundtrack full of standards and new interpretations of classic songs from Harry Connick Jr. and his trio. Steve and John go thru the movie scene by scene and break down the direction, acting, storylines, cinematography, score, themes, message, philosophical debates and more. Get ready to put too much pepper in your paprikash!
