Grab your bullwhip and fedora because it’s time for us to bask in the glory of RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK (1981) which introduced audiences to iconic, globe-trotting archaeologist Indiana Jones. We then check out HIGH ROAD TO CHINA (1983) starring Tom Selleck, the man who was originally cast as Indiana Jones!

We bring our When Harry Met Sally series to a close with three movies that idealize two cities and one decade. THE WEDDING SINGER (1998) starring Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore, NOTTING HILL (1999) starring Julia Roberts and Hugh Grant, and Nora Ephron’s YOU’VE GOT MAIL (1998) starring Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks.

Death is in the air as we look at the most emo rom-com of all time, Nora Ephron’s SLEEPLESS IN SEATTLE (1993) starring Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks. Then we pour one out for a very British comedy of embarrassment, FOUR WEDDINGS AND A FUNERAL (1994) starring Hugh Grant and Andie MacDowell.

We kick off our new series with the one-two punch that revolutionized romantic comedies heading into the 1990s and beyond. First, we “have what she’s having” with Rob Reiner and Nora Ephron’s WHEN HARRY MET SALLY (1989) starring Meg Ryan and Billy Crystal. Then we trade the Big Apple for Hollywood dreams in Garry Marshall’s PRETTY WOMAN (1990) starring Julia Roberts and Richard Gere.

We discuss Warren Beatty’s DICK TRACY SPECIAL (2010) and its sequel DICK TRACY SPECIAL: TRACY ZOOMS IN (2023) both of which aired on Turner Classic Movies so Beattty could retain the film rights to the character. Pomegranates. Pomegranates. Pomegranates.
