  • Tom Hanks is denied the apex here, although his 1990s streak and the effortlessness of this performance are treated as extraordinary. — Amanda Dobbins
  • Nora Ephron is also denied a film apex because When Harry Met Sally had greater impact, even though You've Got Mail is one participant's personal peak and most-quoted Ephron film. — Amanda Dobbins
  • Heartburn receives a side case as an underrated Ephron film with funny performances. — Amanda Dobbins
  • One participant declares this Meg Ryan's apex because of the drop in her later filmography and how inseparable her performance is from the movie. — Juliet Litman
  • The other participant gives Meg Ryan's apex to When Harry Met Sally, favoring its diner-ordering performance as less cutesy and more honest. — Amanda Dobbins
  • Carrie Fisher’s performance in When Harry Met Sally is raised as a final apex-side observation. — Juliet Litman
