What We’ve Learned from Nora Ephron: Sleepless in Seattle

Sleepless in Seattle

Take a chance on love. In the film Sleepless in Seattle, Sam Baldwin (Tom Hanks) is encouraged by his son to speak openly on a radio show about how much he misses his deceased wife. Annie Reed (Meg Ryan) hears Sam’s confession and is immediately drawn to his sensitive and loyal character. In a leap of faith she writes a letter asking him to meet her atop the Empire State Building, but decides not to mail it. Her friend Becky sends it anyway and lucky for Annie, if she hadn’t, this whirlwind love story would have never happened. When it comes to love trust your instinct and follow your heart. You never know where it will lead you.
