I'll Have What She's Having

From Odds & Thens, "My National Film Registry Nominations"

One of my all time favorite movies is When Harry Met Sally. I love every single scene in it. I love how demure college co-ed Sally is at the beginning and the mostly confident woman she becomes throughout the movie. I love how obnoxious Harry is at the beginning and the way he softens, but never truly loses his over-the-top nature, by the end.

If you haven't seen the movie, I strongly encourage you to stop reading right this minute, stream the movie from Netflix, and then return to LMS when you're done.

By all accounts one of the most iconic scenes in the movie happens over a casual lunch between Harry and Sally at Katz's Delicatessen. To refresh your memory, here it is.

A couple of days ago, a comedy troupe in New York went back to Katz's Deli and recreated the scene, flash mob style.

WARNING: Do not eat or drink anything while watching this video. There is an increased chance of choking on it or spewing it all over your computer screen while laughing hysterically. I also hope you have strong bladder muscles.

Now can someone pass me a cigarette?

RIP Nora Ephron

Acclaimed writer Nora Ephron died tonight.

She's famous for many books and screen plays, but my personal favorite is When Harry Met Sally.

I still remember seeing it for the very first time with my cousin Alan. Some call it a simple romantic comedy, I call it genius. My favorite scene in the movie happened when Harry finally proclaimed his love for Sally.

The thing is I love you . . .



RIP Nora Ephron. You inspired many woman through your words. You made a difference in the world.
