Sleepless in Seattle (1993)
Saturday
5:15 AM - 7:00 AM
Directed By Norah Ephron
Starring Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan
Suggested by Susan Gray
Jordan's Comment: "Susan Gray says I need to show more 'chick flicks' at the JRFF, so I chose a classic. Sleepless in Seattle sweet romantic story about two people who have never met who slowly realize their love for one another.
A love story is totally appropriate for the JRFF. The Festival has already led to two marriages (one will begin January 8, 2005). So pay close attention during this movie. The wo/man next to you at the JRFF could be the wo/man of your dreams!"
Trivia: A pre-Seinfeld reference to the real-life 'Soup Nazi': A male journalist is speaking as Meg Ryan enters an office at her newspaper, saying, '...he's the meanest guy in the world, but he makes the best soup you've ever eaten.'
