Netflix has announced its monthly content changes for August, and the famous romantic comedy Sleepless in Seattle is one of the movies that will be removed. You still have a lot of time to watch the movie before it disappears from Netflix on Thursday, August 31. With a full month left, those who want to could even plan a date night.

In the movie Sleepless in Seattle, Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan play an unlikely couple who find their way to each other despite what seems to be impossible odds. The movie is now on Netflix, and you may have had it in your queue for a while, but you can’t put it off much longer. It and a lot of other games will leave the streamer on the last day of August. Because licensing deals change and people want to save data, this kind of shuffle has become common in the streaming business.

Nora Ephron was the director of Sleepless in Seattle. She wrote the story with David S. Ward and Jeff Arch. Hanks plays an engineer whose wife Maggie (Annie Reed) dies of cancer and leaves him to raise their son Jonah (Ross Malinger) on his own. In order to start over, he moves them from Chicago to Seattle, where they spend a year doing nothing but grieving. The main love plot of the movie starts when Jonah calls into a radio talk show on Christmas Eve and talks about his late mother. Sam also calls, and soon women from all over the country are sending letters to the widower.

Ryan’s character is a hopeless lover who works as a news reporter in Baltimore. He compares Sam’s situation to the movie An Affair to Remember. Even though she is married, she writes to Sam like many other women do. In her message, she asks Sam to meet her on Valentine’s Day at the top of the Empire State Building.

The movie has had a huge effect on culture and has lasted a very long time, with many reviews written about it in the past. When it came out, it was nominated for an Oscar for best original script, and most critics have always liked it. It has also been mentioned a lot in other rom-coms since it came out, just like An Affair to Remember was mentioned a lot in it.

You can now watch Sleepless in Seattle on Netflix. After Thursday, August 31, 2023, you won’t be able to get it. Set aside a night to watch the movie as soon as you can.
