“Brimming over with style, intelligence and flashing wit” (Rolling Stone), this “splendid and irresistible” (Los Angeles Times) film from director Rob Reiner (The American President) is one of the best-loved romantic comedies of all time. Featuring dazzling performances from Meg Ryan, Billy Crystal, Carrie Fisher and Bruno Kirby, exceptional music from Harry Connick Jr., and an Oscar-nominated screenplay by Nora Ephron, When Harry Met Sally is an “Explosively funny” (Newsweek) commentary on friendships, courtships – and other hardships – of the modern age.
Will sex ruin a perfect relationship between a man and a woman? That’s what Harry (Crystal) and Sally (Ryan) debate during their trip from Chicago to New York. And eleven years later, they’re still no closer to finding the answer. Will these two best friends ever accept that they’re meant for each other…or will they continue to deny the attraction that’s existed since the first moment When Harry Met Sally?

DVD REVIEW:
This has to be one of my favorite movies of all time. It’s a movie that I got many friends hooked on. It’s a modern love story although not as realistic as some may hope (note: Even in the special features both Reiner and Ephron comment on this), this movie is awesome!
It’s a DVD that many of us have waited for a long time and now it’s finally here. With a gorgeous video transfer and the music very well done, aside from the beautiful story, what people will want to know is “what does the DVD come with?”
The DVD comes with 7 deleted scenes from the movie which were very interesting to watch. Not sure why Rob Reiner cut a few of them out but nevertheless really fun to watch footage. The golden apple of the DVD for special features is the “Making-of” documentary with the cast and crew. Absolutely a must see!  Also included is the theatrical trailers for this movie and two other Reiner movies and like the video, the cool Harry Connick Jr. music video of “It had to be you”.
A highly recommended DVD for romance movie fans!
