When Harry Met Sally asks the question can men and women be friends without the relationship being effected by sex. In this 1989 classic film Meg Ryan and Billy Crystal play friends that have a chance meeting and then continue to run into one another. Their relationship goes from acquaintances, to friends to lovers and how all of those relationships are impacted.
