One of the most famous New Year’s Eve scenes of all time,ย When Harry Met Sally‘s finale is also my favorite. It is pure rom-com perfection, the ideal mix of romantic expectations both dashed and exceeded. Writer Nora Ephron (Sleepless in Seattle, You’ve Got Mail, Julie and Julia) and director Rob Reiner (This is Spinal Tap, Princess Bride, The Bucket List) gleefully transcend cliches and deliver an surprisingly un-sentimental and satisfying ending. And Billy Crystal and Meg Ryan give likeable, authentic performances that are standard-bearers for the genre.

You couldn’t go wrong watching this movie as you prep for a big NYE bash (or recover from one afterward.) Catch it on Amazon Instantย if you want to watch it right away.ย May your New Year’s Eve be Harry-and-Sally happy!

What’s your favorite New Year’s Eve movie moment?

    the ending is the best part cause he loves her and he’s expressing how he feels about her, and they get married.
