When Harry Met Sally Movie Review: I'll Have What She's Having
In this episode of the Wicked Indulgence podcast, we kick off the New Year with a cozy discussion about the classic rom-com "When Harry Met Sally." Joined by my co-host Kevin, we reflect on the exhaustion that often follows the holiday season and how we decided to ease back into our routine with a light-hearted film.
We dive into the film's iconic moments, including the famous diner scene where Meg Ryan's character fakes an orgasm, leading to the memorable line, "I'll have what she's having." We explore the dynamics between the main characters, Harry and Sally, played by Billy Crystal and Meg Ryan, and how their relationship evolves from disdain to deep friendship and ultimately love.
Throughout our conversation, we touch on various themes presented in the film, such as the complexities of relationships, the differences in how men and women cope with breakups, and the importance of communication in a romantic partnership. We also discuss Harry's cynical views on love and friendship, particularly his belief that men and women can't be friends without sex getting in the way.
As we analyze the film's portrayal of high-maintenance women and the significance of connection beyond physical intimacy, we share our own perspectives on relationships and the lessons we've learned over the years.
In the end, we both agree that "When Harry Met Sally" is a timeless film that has aged well, offering a delightful mix of humor and heartfelt moments. We rate it a solid 10 out of 10, making it a perfect choice for anyone looking for a light and enjoyable watch. Join us as we celebrate this classic and reflect on our own experiences with love and friendship!
