It's 1993. Multiplexes have arrived, and there are plenty of movies to show—Jurassic Park, Tombstone, Schindler's List, the original Super Mario Bros. movie.... Okay, not all are great, but it was a time of the blockbuster. In the middle of this comes Sleepless in Seattle, an iconic romantic comedy with the now-classic pairing of Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan.
What Sleepless in Seattle offers casual movie fans who have always meant to watch classic movies: a near-religious search for romantic "magic," clever writing with an unconventional romantic comedy structure, great acting by Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks, and references to Cary Grant and tiramisu.
