In 1993, the romantic comedy Sleepless in Seattle, starring Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks, was released. The movie was one of the top grossing films of 1993. The movie was inspired by An Affair to Remember (1957) and Love Affair (1939). Interestingly, Rita Wilson, who is married to Tom Hanks, plays his sister in the movie.
