So, what is the model of love that the movie offers up as the ideal? Listen to a guy spilling his guts on the radio. A rom-com about Walter and Victoria getting together after being brutally jilted by their partners is the rom-com you know would be a thousand times healthier than this one. This makes both Sam and his son physically cringe. She's a little nervous, she laughs too long at the architect's jokes, and her laugh is a bit weird. Her crime against humanity? She's really into Sam, basically. Guys, this isn't infidelity, but it's definitely edging into that territory.Ĭan we now take a second to consider the one way Sam absolutely is Annie's soulmate? Like Annie and Walter, Sam is also not very nice to Victoria, the woman he briefly dates. She hires a private detective to investigate Sam.

If this is really all the film can come up with to make us hate Bill Pullman's character, this sucks.īut OK, maybe Annie's just not feeling it, and, in that case, she should set this complete keeper free so he can go pursue his happily ever after with someone who's as crazy about him as Annie clearly is about tragic widowers on the radio.

It's a '90s cult classic that people are still tweeting about almost a quarter of a century later. The unforgettable Meg Ryan rom-com has a 72 percent Rotten Tomato rating. It features (in no particular order): an argument being made for treating perfectly nice romantic partners/potential partners like trash advocating for choosing a voice on the radio instead of the guy you've been in a relationship with for a long time and, oh yeah, a weirdly supportive attitude toward stalking. All the same, sorry to say, Sleepless In Seattle is the most toxic rom-com ever. Xavier’s West End credits include Sunset Boulevard, Showboat and The Pajama Game Walsh starred in the West End production of Big.Yes, Sleepless In Seattle boasts two of the '90s most talented rom-com thespians, and it was co-written by real life word witch Nora Ephron. It looks like love is in the airwaves, but how do you know if he’s the one for you if you’ve never even met? Perhaps only a last-minute dash to the top of the Empire State Building can prove that somewhere there’s someone for everyone…” Nearly 3,000 miles away, journalist Annie starts to ask herself whether Sam could be more than just a great news story. The Troubadour Wembley’s synopsis: “When eight-year-old Jonah phones a Seattle radio show and gets his dad, Sam, to talk live on air about the heart-breaking loss of his mother, Sam instantly touches hearts across America. The new musical is a Theatre Royal Plymouth production presented by Michael Rose and David Shor, in association with Marc Toberoff and the Bord Gais Energy Theatre, Dublin.ĭescribed as featuring “a sparkling jazz-inspired score,” Sleepless seems to hew close to the film, plotwise.
