Sleepless film webmail
You're referring to the 2005 film "Sleepless in Seattle"!
Here's some information about the film:
Plot: The movie follows Sam Baldwin (Tom Hanks), a recently widowed father who, on Christmas Eve, calls in to a national radio talk show and shares his story of love and loss. Thousands of women respond to his call, but one woman in particular, Annie Reed (Meg Ryan), is touched by his story and decides to travel across the country to meet him.
Webmail: Ah, you're probably thinking of the iconic scene where Annie sends Sam an email, which is a big deal since it's 1993 and email is still a relatively new technology. This scene is often cited as one of the most romantic moments in movie history!
Trivia:
- The film was inspired by the classic romantic comedy "An Affair to Remember" (1957), starring Cary Grant and Deborah Kerr.
- Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan had previously starred together in the romantic comedy "You've Got Mail" (1998).
- The film's script was written by Nora Ephron, who also directed the movie.
- The iconic "I'll have what she's having" line, spoken by a diner patron (Estelle Reiner) in the film, has become a cultural reference point.
