As the two stubbornly resist courting each other, they gradually realize there may be no two people more qualified to be in love in this delightful, anecdotal film. Director Rob Reiner Star Billy Crystal, Carrie Fisher, Bruno Kirby, Meg Ryan, Lisa Jane Persky Special Features: Widescreen - 1.85 Audio: Dolby Digital Surround English, Spanish, French Stereo 2.0 - English Subtitles - English, Spanish - Optional Additional Release Material: Alternate Scenes - Deleted Scenes (8) Audio Commentaries - Rob Reiner Director; Nora Ephron Screenwriter; Billy Crystal Star Runtime: 96 minutes Year of Release: 1989. desertcart.com Nora Ephron wrote the brisk screenplay for this 1989 romantic comedy, director Rob Reiner made a nicely glossy New York story (very much in a Woody Allen vein) out of it, and Billy Crystal's unstoppable charm made it something really special. Crystal and Meg Ryan play longtime platonic friends who keep dancing around their deeper feelings for one another, and Bruno Kirby and Carrie Fisher are their respective pals who fall in love and get married. Ryan doesn't get a lot of funny material, but her performance is typically alive and intuitive, and she more than holds her own with Crystal's comic motor mouth and sweet sentimentality. Reiner is on comfortable ground, liberated from the burden of making serious statements in the lead-footed manner of subsequent features. --Tom KeoghOn the DVD The Collector's Edition offers seven new featurettes (the previous Special Edition only had one documentary), beginning with a sit-down between director Rob Reiner and writer Nora Ephron waxing nostalgic on how the movie originated: He, recently divorced from Penny Marshall, was a miserable single man, while she was the screenwriter who rejected his initial pitch over lunch ("It was a shame," she remembers, "because we hadn't even eaten yet."). It's easy to see that Reiner is clearly Harry, and Ephron is clearly Sally: He's the squawking chatterbox and she's constantly corrects his memory (Sally's meticulous method of ordering food is also a direct rip-off of Ephron herself). Other featurettes show Billy Crystal's attempts to play Harry (or Reiner, as it were); location filming in New York; the love stories that served as interludes between scenes (again, the counselors-at-camp story is from Ephron's parents); the significance of the film over time; and more discussion on the film's famous question: "Can men and women really be friends?" Most of the stories from the featurettes are recycled in the new film commentary by Reiner, Ephron, and Crystal (Reiner mentions that the "I'll have what she's having" line, spoken by his mother, is in the top 10 of AFI's top 100 movie lines no less than five times overall), but the inclusion of Crystal, who contributed many improvised lines in the movie, makes for a nice easygoing repartee. Fans may be interested to know that Reiner originally thought Harry and Sally shouldn't get together, until he himself fell in love with his future wife on the set, but the most hilarious tidbit involves Reiner storming the production offices and polling all the women on whether or not they "fake it" because didn't believe that really happened. Seven deleted scenes--which were also included in the previous version--and original theatrical trailer round out the set, but Harry Connick Jr.'s "It Had to Be You" music video is missing. Still, the special features are a great look into a romantic comedy that clearly remains a meaningful experience for cast, crew, and audience alike. --Ellen A. Kim Review: Another positive review - By now, all that needs to be said about this movie has been said. What we have here is early Meg Ryan, who shows her tremendous acting and comedic talent - a portent of things to come. We also have the young Billy Crystal at his finest. The supporting caste is made up of Carrie Fisher - less the Star Wars fright wig and a relatively unknown - at least to me - Bruno Kirby. Kirby and Fisher provide the proper foils/sidekicks to Ryan and Crystal. This movie was brilliantly directed by Rob Reiner who, it seems, was working out relationship issues while directing this film. Written by Nora Ephron - who is not on a socio-political crusade in this screenplay - the script has great moments written in with room enough for the cast to improvise. Rob Reiner was very much able to allow the cast the freedom to improvise and make the storyline sing! The interspersing of the "personal romance" stories was a great touch (can't remember who thought of it), but it kept the film from getting too worrisome. Crystal's character - Harry - sometimes was a bit over-the-top with the gloom and doom schtick. Ryan's Sally was the perfect foil and friend to Harry until she has her ultimate crisis and they violate the rules of the friendship. How they work it out is truly romance gold and you wish that they could truly live happily ever after. This is one of the great things about this movie - we actually _care_ about the characters and become involved with their inner conflicts - even if they do seem rather silly at times. Of course there is one of the most memorable of all scenes in the diner when Harry and Sally are disagreeing about whether women fake certain actions during the dating game. This is one of Cinema's most brilliant moments. I cannot recall whose idea this scene was. I recall that it was something that Rob Reiner and Nora Ephron disagreed about. Fortunately for the film, Ephron's viewpoint/perspective prevailed and this bit of movie gold was preserved for posterity. The Collector's Edition DVD is filled with good extras - a "making off," interviews with Reiner & Ephron and other goodies that make it a worthwhile purchase. As far as I could tell, the mastering for this was very good. I did not notice any flaws and the soundtrack was excellent. All in all a very good deal. I see that desertcart now has it on sale for less than I paid for it in April. But if I always waited for the price to go down, I probably would never by a DVD/Blu-ray ever. *Sigh* Review: Outstanding Movie - This is a classic movie that continues to get rave reviews. Any movie starring Meg Ryan and Billy Crystal is worth watching - several time. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000XJD33O | | Actors | Billy Crystal | | Aspect Ratio | 1.85:1 | | Best Sellers Rank | #2,724 in Movies & TV ( See Top 100 in Movies & TV ) #42 in Romance (Movies & TV) #274 in Comedy (Movies & TV) | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (3,504) | | Dubbed: | French, Spanish | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item model number | M109956 | | Language | Unqualified | | MPAA rating | R (Restricted) | | Media Format | Collector's Edition, Color, Dolby, Dubbed, Multiple Formats, NTSC, Subtitled, Widescreen | | Number of discs | 1 | | Product Dimensions | 0.7 x 7.5 x 5.4 inches; 0.8 ounces | | Release date | January 15, 2008 | | Run time | 1 hour and 36 minutes | | Studio | Alliance Home Entertainment | | Subtitles: | English, Spanish | ## Product Details - **Contributor:** Billy Crystal - **Format:** Collector's Edition, Color, Dolby, Dubbed, Multiple Formats, NTSC, Subtitled, Widescreen - **Genre:** Comedy - **Language:** English - **Runtime:** 1 hour and 36 minutes ## Images ![When Harry Met Sally... - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81l2cJ6rvjL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Another positive review *by A***S on June 13, 2011* By now, all that needs to be said about this movie has been said.
