When Harry Met Sally...
Sex always gets in the way of friendships between men and women. At least, that's what Harry Burns believes. So when Harry meets Sally Albright and a deep friendship blossoms between them, Harry's determined not to let his attraction to Sally destroy it. But when a night of weakness ends in a morning of panic, can the pair avoid succumbing to Harry's fears by remaining friends and admitting they just might be the perfect match for each other?
Audience Sentiment
The legendary diner scene
The heated argument at the wedding
The film drops significantly from its peak during the famous diner scene to its lowest point during the wedding argument, a swing of 3.4 points as the romantic comedy formula takes over
When Harry Met Sally maintains strong audience appreciation throughout most of its runtime, with particular praise for the witty dialogue and iconic diner scene. The film dips notably during the conventional breakup sequence but recovers for a genuinely romantic finale that satisfies most viewers despite some criticism of the predictable happy ending.
