Plot summary
Directed by: Rob Reiner
Starring: Billy Crystal, Bruno Kirby, Carrie Fisher, Meg Ryan
Harry Burns and Sally Albright meet in the late 70's as they drive together to New York City after college. They dont' really get along, and have a big discussion about how men and women can never really be friends because "the sex thing gets in the way." They see each other again after 5 years, and still don't get along. Another 6 years go by, Harry has been married but is getting divorced, and Sally just broke up with her boyfriend of 6 years. This time, they become friends, but their friendship intensifies, and they wind up having sex, which does indeed get in the way of their friendship.
Audra
Continuity mistake: When they are playing win, lose, or draw, Sally is trying to draw baby talk, and if you keep your eye on the drawing the baby looks different all the time and has eyes, and then doesn't have eyes, etc.
Harry Burns: How long do you like to be held after sex? All night, right? See, that's your problem. Somewhere between 30 seconds and all night is your problem.
Sally Albright: I don't have a problem.
Harry Burns: Yes, you do.
Trivia: In the famous faked orgasm scene, the woman who says, "I'll have what she's having. . ." is Rob Reiner's mother.
