‘When Harry Met Sally’ Almost Had a Heartbreaking Ending We'd Never Forgive


‘When Harry Met Sally’ director Rob Reiner revealed that his own single status almost sparked a very different ending for the rom-com

Reiner revealed he “hadn’t met anyone new” following his divorce from Penny Marshall in 1981, causing him to almost tweak the story so the title characters didn’t have a happy ending. Meg Ryan and Billy Crystal created romantic-comedy perfection in When Harry Met Sally — and viewers are still falling in love with their performances today. The Rob Reiner-directed film follows Harry Burns (Crystal) and Sally Albright (Ryan) from the time they meet in Chicago through more than a decade of friendship and missed connections.
