About this movie

Rob Reiner's romantic comedy documents a very unusual couple. There's never been a friendship quite like Harry and Sally's. From faking an orgasm at the corner deli, to debating the odds of having great sex with a guy named "Sheldon", there's nothing Harry and Sally don't do together. Well, almost nothing…. At the start, they are two recent college graduates who meet while sharing a ride together from Chicago to New York. They decide that it is impossible for men and women to be "just friends," and when they reach The Big Apple, they go their separate ways. Several years later they happen to be seated next to each other on an airplane, and Harry tells Sally about his recent marriage…and several years later, in another random meeting, he relays his divorce…when they become close friends…so close that their respective best friends fall in love. At a climactic New Years Eve party, they finally must confront and embrace their true feelings for each other.

I unfortunately must give this particular version sold on Google a poor rating. I would have rated it 5 stars if it matched the version I saw back in 1989 but, unfortunately, the music was changed in key scenes towards the end of the movie and that changed the experience for me. The change feels like some kind of 1984/Ministry of Truth edit. I feel sad.

CAUTION: THIS DIGITAL VERSION HAS BEEN ALTERED. Incredible to believe, but that this classic film has been tampered with. Apparently due to some music clearance issues, key scenes have been badly degraded by replacing the songs you remember from the film, with stock music. You won't hear "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas" when Sally brings home her tree. You won't hear "Don't Get Around Much Anymore" at the New Year's Even Party. And there's more! The most stunning replacement of all-- Harry's New Year's Eve sprint to the party-- instead of "It Had To Be You"... you will now here an unknown orchestral jazz thing. Rob Reiner, what happened? Is this the version that will live on after the DVD's are all gone? Shameful. "

Do NOT buy this movie. For some reason this copy of the movie is missing the original sound track by Harry Connick Jr. The missing music is most noticeable when Harry realizes that Sally is meant for him and runs to the New Years party. The classic Harry Connick "It had to be you" which normally backs up the scene is missing. This is a very disappointing elimination which ruins the movie in my opinion.
