In this weeks episode Vonia tackles the second film in our Tom and Meg trilogy, Sleepless in Seattle. As far as Rom Coms go this was the gold standard in 1990s romantic comedy. However, in spite of Toms handsome sorrow and Megs manic charm, at its core this movie is about a woman who strings along her fiancé while simultaneously using her journalistic skills to stalk a grieving widower and his son. Do they pull it off… we are going with YES! As creepy as the premise is when you break it down this is after all a movie about wanting to be in love in a movie. It’s a fantasy people! Tom and Megs chemistry doesn’t merit a grade as the two spend less than 2 minutes on screen together. Averyn then follows up with the true story of Maria Marchese. Maria stalked her ex boyfriend’s psychiatrist, Dr. Jan Falkowski and his fiancé Debbie Pemberton to such an extreme that when she was finally convicted the court handed down one of the harshest sentences for stalking in British history.
