Meg ryan sleepless in seattle movie#
Meg Ryan ditches her boring, cursed-pajama-wearing fiancé and.she, Tom, and Small Son all meet on top of the Empire State Building! Tears! Love! Immediate family! The end.One of the great trio of romantic comedies starring Meg Ryan that were written and/or directed by the late Nora Ephron (When Harry Met Sally and You’ve Got Mail being the other two), 1993’s Sleepless in Seattle was arguably the most romantic movie of its generation, and its soundtrack was a big reason why.Apparently, because Small Son flies to New York to meet up with Meg Ryan.Was there really an era when children could buy plane tickets and fly alone?.Aw, Tom sees Meg Ryan at the airport while he’s dropping off the decorator and is instantly in love with her, despite not actually talking to her.I am begging Tom to stop confiding in Small Son about his personal life.I can’t even handle someone in the ’90s saying, “Don’t you hate flying?” They practically gave you your own king-size bed back then! Talk to me when you’ve flown Spirit in the COVID era!.Meg Ryan’s hair game is really on point in this movie.Small Son completely cock-blocks his dad, and calls the decorator a “ho.” Yikes! But not within her earshot, thankfully.This kid’s bedtime is 10 p.m.? Guilty widowed dad much?.Small Son does not like the decorator, and in his defense, she has an annoying laugh.Small Son gets Tom to agree to meet “Annie from Baltimore” at the Empire State Building on Valentine’s Day, and I have to say, the pre-“stranger danger” era was wild.Small Son loves Meg Ryan’s letter, but Tom is too busy wooing his decorator to pay attention.

So much hair! Although I have to say, I prefer him as a zaddy. The literal first scene of this movie is in a graveyard.Why the fuck did I think watching a movie where Tom Hanks explains to his small son that his mother has died would make me feel better?.Below, find an unabridged guide to every thought I had while rewatching the eternal classic Sleepless in Seattle-released 29 years ago today. Luckily, Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan are always there for me. (Okay, first I like to protest and donate to abortion funds, but when the anger and sadness have run their course, I need to watch something to cool off.) It’s been a very bad, no-good, horrible, rotten, 24 hours, and I don’t know about you, but when I’m seething over the loss of my constitutional right to reproductive freedom, I like to watch an old rom-com.
