Nora Ephron's When Harry Met Sally screenplay made for a classic romantic comedy. It's one of the best in the genre. Sleepless In Seattle, however, is a rom-com that isn't funny and we didn't even find it particularly romantic, partly because the couple we're supposed to root for don't even meet until the end. That's a clever idea, but we don't think it works to keep these 2 great stars apart for so long. Tom Hanks plays a sad-sack and Meg Ryan plays a stalker. Yeah. We said it. This even has the dreaded trope that we never enjoy: a precocious kid who bosses adults around. So, yeah, you could say we weren't fans of Sleepless In Seattle...but we sure had a blast making fun of it. So join us for our 519th edition of Have You Ever Seen, unless your deal-breakers are allergies or a weird laugh. We've got a little of both, so we are, thus, undeserving of love.
