![]() ![]() Meg Ryan ditches her boring, cursed-pajama-wearing fiancé and.she, Tom, and Small Son all meet on top of the Empire State Building! Tears! Love! Immediate family! The end.If we're talking about the film that most people identify with our city, there's really only one choice, if television’s Grey’s Anatomy or Frasier don’t count: Sleepless in Seattle.Apparently, because Small Son flies to New York to meet up with Meg Ryan.Was there really an era when children could buy plane tickets and fly alone?.Aw, Tom sees Meg Ryan at the airport while he’s dropping off the decorator and is instantly in love with her, despite not actually talking to her.I am begging Tom to stop confiding in Small Son about his personal life.I can’t even handle someone in the ’90s saying, “Don’t you hate flying?” They practically gave you your own king-size bed back then! Talk to me when you’ve flown Spirit in the COVID era!.Meg Ryan’s hair game is really on point in this movie.Small Son completely cock-blocks his dad, and calls the decorator a “ho.” Yikes! But not within her earshot, thankfully.This kid’s bedtime is 10 p.m.? Guilty widowed dad much?.Small Son does not like the decorator, and in his defense, she has an annoying laugh.Small Son gets Tom to agree to meet “Annie from Baltimore” at the Empire State Building on Valentine’s Day, and I have to say, the pre-“stranger danger” era was wild.Small Son loves Meg Ryan’s letter, but Tom is too busy wooing his decorator to pay attention.LMAO, I forgot she runs a full background check.Oh, she straight-up found Tom’s ex-wife’s obituary.God, the early-’90s proto-Google Meg Ryan is using to figure out who “Sleepless in Seattle” is is inexplicably depressing me.It really is amazing that the two main love interests in this movie don’t meet until the end.Meg Ryan writes a letter asking “Sleepless in Seattle” to meet her at the top of the Empire State Building on Valentine’s Day.I am so obsessed with Meg Ryan’s basket (literal white, braided basket!) of potato chips that I can’t even summarize what’s going on, because all I’m thinking about is how I need a chip basket.Tom asks out Victoria, a decorator he works with, and is of course incredibly trembly and anxious and endearing about it.Oh my God, I did not know Gaby Hoffman was in this movie in her child-actor days.All I want is for Rob Reiner to be my personal relationship consultant.Why does this guy Meg Ryan works with have a harp in his office?.“What we think of as ‘fate’ is just two neuroses knowing they're a perfect match.” Important and real statement.Meg Ryan’s fiancé is wearing an all-red pajama suit that I can only describe as “toxic.” She’s clearly not thrilled about his snoring.All these thirsty women are now sending Tom fan mail, despite the fact that they don’t know what he looks like.Oh noooooo, Tom’s dead wife visits him in a New Year’s Eve dream and he tells her, “I miss you so much it hurts.” I’m going to have to watch a much worse and less emotionally weighty rom-com after this.Apparently, 2,000 women called the station looking to be Small Son’s dad’s new wife.God, remember when everybody used to listen to call-in radio shows? No? I’m old.I hope it’s because he earned enough from this movie to leave “the business” in his dust. I wonder if this kid ever did anything else in Hollywood.Oh my God, I straight-up forgot Small Son and Tom live on a houseboat-type thing. ![]()
