Jews on Film: Exploring Jewish Stories & Themes in Cinema When Harry Met Sally with Temim Fruchter (Re-Release)
This week, Daniel and Harry are joined by Temim Fruchter, author of "City of Laughter" out now! They discuss the classic 1989 film "When Harry Met Sally..." starring Billy Crystal and Meg Ryan directed by the late Rob Reiner.
First, they touch on why the film has sustained as one of the best Rom-Coms, pointing to the improvisation and natural conversations that drive the film's narrative. Then they discuss coincidence and synchronicity related to Harry and Sally's run ins throughout the film.
They also answer one of the most controversial questions in food lore: What is your bagel order?
As always, they close out the episode by ranking the film's "Jewishness" in terms of its cast & crew, content, and themes.
