When Harry Met Sally...
Two University of Chicago graduates share a drive to New York in 1977 arguing about whether men and women can be friends, and then keep colliding by accident over twelve years while the marriages and engagements around them collapse. Older couples talk to the camera about how they met. Ephron's script and Reiner's direction fixed the rules of the modern romantic comedy, delicatessen scene included.
