When Harry Met Sally started shooting in August 1988, almost four years after my first meeting with Rob and Andy. In the meantime I wrote a first draft about two people who get each other from the breakup of the first big relationship in their lives to the beginning of the second. Rob went off and made Stand By Me. We met again and decided that Harry and Sally belonged together. I wrote a second draft. Rob went off and made The Princess Bride. And then we all went to work together on the next (at least) five drafts of the movie

It began in October 1984, when I got a call from my agent that Rob Reiner and his producing partner Andrew Scheinman wanted to have lunch to discuss a project ut an idea they had for a movie about a lawyer. I’ve forgotten the details. The point is, it didn’t interest me at all, and I couldn’t imagine why they’d thought of me in connection with it. I remember being slightly perplexed about whether to say straight off that the idea didn’t interest me or whether to play along for an hour so as not to have that horrible awkwardness that can.

Harry: You realize, of course, that we could never be friends. Sally: Why not? Harry: What I'm saying - and this is not a come-on in any way, shape, or form - is that men and women can't be friends, because the sex part always gets in the way. Sally: That's not true. I have a number of men friends and there's no sex involved. Harry: No, you don't. Sally: Yes, I do. Harry: No, you don't. Sally: Yes, I do. Harry: You only think you do.

This is one of my all time favorite movies and since I love the movie so much I bought the book by Nora Ephron. It is a screenplay with all the dialogue and directions like "fade in" but there isn't any descriptive prose like you'd find in novels. Hands now, the dialogue is classic. The interaction and evolving relationship between Harry Burns and Sally Albright is entertainment at its finest. The witty lines jump off the pages. This is great comedic writing.

I have always loved the movie When Harry Met Sally and watch it about once a year. It's nice to have this book by the writer. The dialogue is clever, the characters are realistic and the humor is wonderful. We all know a Harry or Sally! It's a great romantic comedy by a talented writer. It is great to have the book to refer to if you want to look over a certain part from the movie in detail. It is short, but that's the whole story!

The dialogue sings with comedy, life lessons and ultimately, love. It does sound partially improvised but in a way that works. Very enjoyable. I read many details I missed watching the film.

Of all movie genres I would have to say that Romantic Comedies are my favorite. And of all Romantic Comedies, WHEN HARRY MET SALLY is by far the best ever. Two people never hated each other more in the beginning. Then we soon learn that two people were never more right for each other. If you haven't seen it yet, you are in for a treat.

I watched HBO's Everything Is Copy and then jumped on Amazon and started buying Nora's words. So smart, so funny.

Nafyn

This is her novelized version of the screenplay that she and Rob Reiner wrote. She explains what they were thinking and how they decided on the course of the story. I loved reading it and wished it were longer.

Freighton

Reading the screenplay was almost as good as watching the movie. . .almost. I found myself saying the words to myself before I even read them; I have seen the movie countless times and never tire of watching it.

I was fascinated to learn the history of how the movie was conceptualized. This alone makes it well worth the price. It's a must have for fans of the movie.

Rest in peace, Nora Ephron. Your legacy will live on forever!When Harry Met Sally. . .

Nora Ephron was an incredible writer. I enjoy reading her books because they are a fun way to relate to the many sides to being a woman.
