Great Movies for Fall - When Harry Met Sallly

"Sally this is Harry Burns. Harry this is Sally Albright." A simple introduction began one of the most complicated relationships ever played out on screen. Billy Crystal (Harry) and Meg Ryan (Sally) play polar opposite people who find themselves driving from Chicago to New York City together. The two discuss their thoughts on life, Casablanca, love, and how men and women can never be friends because sex always gets in the way. 

Once in NYC, the two go their own way and don't look back. A chance encounter on an airplane five years later doesn't exactly change their opinions about one another. Destiny plays it's hand as the two meet again a few years later this time discovering they two may have more in common than they thought. The two form a strong friendship and become anunsperable pair with the inevitable romantic interest looming. 

When Harry Met Sally was one of the first romantic comedies ever to be released and in my eyes it's still the very best. Ryan and Crystal give performances worthy of being considered among their best. 

For many reasons this film always remind me of fall. In particular, one scene where Harry and Sally are walking through Central Park wirh the bright fall foliage as their back drop. It's the perfect movie to set back and watch on a chilly autumn day with a freshly baked goodie and a cup of pumpkin spiced coffee.
