Hiya!

What did u think the title meant? A greeting? Well, u are not far from the truth. It was a greeting; for a battle. You know, the kind u see in action movies with the "Lee" khandan ;)
So, about today's topic, hehe, it is gonna be a movie I watched some days back: "When Harry met Sally". This was supposed to be a cool romantic comedy that would tickle you. But then you see, I never bothered to get it from someone or even download it because it is an old movie. I tried seeing it once 2 years ago and stopped without a second thought because:
1) the print was bad
2) too too old settings
But it is true that you grow up with time :p I did and finally could enjoy the movie :)
It is about this couple of strangers (everyone is a stranger at one point or another, dont u think?) who meet immediately after college and drive a long way to New York. I do not remember the name of the actor who played Harry; but Sally was Meg Ryan. The guy is a complete jerk, in contrast with the typical cool, handsome and chivalrous prince a girl dreams of. A complete ass who thinks that he is deep just because he thinks about death; duh! (then I would be a real deep person too. The best thing that could happen to me is dying asap without pain and I waste a lot of time fantasising that :D )
Our dear Sally and Harry part ways in NY to meet again in 6 years. Here again he manages to drive her insanely angry just by being his charming self. She shakes him off. They both get involved with other people at different levels of involvement; he gets married and she goes for a live in relationship. They meet four years later to find themselves single again. They become friends, lovers, enemies and then spice (the plural for spouse)
The movie has one of the best proposal lines: "When you realize that you want to spend the rest of your lives with someone, you want the rest of your life to begin as soon as possible"
So long..
