Sleepless in Our Houseboat

February 08, 2022 11:15 - 1 hour

In this weeks episode Vonia tackles the second film in our Tom and Meg trilogy, Sleepless in Seattle. As far as Rom Coms go this was the gold standard in 1990s romantic comedy. However, in spite of Toms handsome sorrow and Megs manic charm, at its core this movie is about a woman who strings along her fiancé while simultaneously using her journalistic skills to stalk a grieving widower and his son.
