 Meg Ryan has shared her kids' reaction to her famous orgasm scene from When Harry Met Sally. The 1989 rom-com is often named one of the best ever made, and follows two friends, Harry (Billy Crystal) and Sally (Ryan), over the years as they navigate their adult lives and debate the age-old question of if men and women can ever truly just be friends. During one of their conversations, in a scene that has become a classic in cinema, Sally shows off her orgasm-faking skills to Harry across lunch at a busy deli when he claims none of the women he's been with have ever merely pretended to climax. With Ryan's performance ending in a repeated chorus of 'Yes! Yes! Yes!' amid plenty of banging the table with her hand – much to Harry's embarrassment – the sequence is then perfectly topped off when a woman who's watched the whole scene unfold tells a waitress: 'I'll have what she's having.' During a recent interview, Ryan, 61, revealed that she had discussed it that very day with her son, actor Jack Quaid, 31, and 19-year-old daughter, Daisy True Ryan. 'It's funny, my son just called me this morning and he's in New York staying at a hotel that's right across the street from Katz's Deli [where the scene was shot].'
