So I rewatched When Harry Met Sally today. Found it on Youtube - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N5pci2fE96M
IF YOU HAVE NOT WATCHED IT, WATCH IT BEFORE YOU READ THE LAST TWO PARAGRAPHS. OR ELSE I WON'T FORGIVE YOU.
This is on my top 5 movies of all time, up there with Good Will Hunting and A Knight's Tale.
To me, those three movies have had special meanings.
Good Will Hunting has always reminded me that it is not our fault that the world has shaped us into the people that we are, that the main reason to use your talent is for those who don't have what you have, and that sometimes in life you have to do things to make sure that you have few regrets.
A Knight's Tale has always been my way of remembering that you will meet amazing people along your life journey and that it is what a person does that defines him, not where he came from.
When Harry met Sally was my reminder to never waste time when you think you've found something great, and that different things have different meanings to different people.
Billy Crystal and Meg Ryan throw around a lot of knowledge in that movie. The iconic "I'll have whant she's having" scene is my second favorite, only to the "When you find someone you want to spend the rest of your life with, you want the rest of your life as soon as possible" scene.
Exact link that I watched when I was cooped up because of the blizzard that hit New England.
ReplyDeleteI personally liked their first dance at New Year's.
LOL, funny how small a world it has become because of the internet.
ReplyDeleteI did like that scene, but I always shudder at the "If we don't have dates next year" part. I guess it clashes with my philosophy, because I see it as one of those ways that people who are attracted to each other end up stalling xD
