Sleepless in Seattle

After his wife passes away, Sam Baldwin (Tom Hanks) and his 8-year-old son relocate from Chicago to Seattle to escape the grief associated with her death. 18 months later, Sam is still grieving and can't sleep. Although Jonah misses his mother, he wants his father to get a new wife despite Sam having not even contemplated dating again. On Christmas Eve, Sam pours his heart out on a national radio talk show about his magical and perfect marriage to Maggie, and how much he still misses her. Among the many women who hear Sam's story and fall in love with him solely because of it is Annie Reed (Meg Ryan), a Baltimore-based newspaper writer.

Annie's infatuation with Sam's story and by association Sam himself is despite being already engaged. But Annie's relationship with her straight-laced fiancé Walter is unlike her dream love life in the movie An Affair to Remember (1957). She even writes to Sam proposing they meet atop the Empire State Building on Valentine's Day. Will magic happen twice in Sam's life, and if so will it be with this unknown woman or Annie?
