Touted as the best romantic comedy out there, 'When Harry Met Sally' indeed works. It covers a long time period and shows us a changing relationship. It's really about how weird human relationships are and how strange routes we can take to happiness. This theme is emphasized by the interviews with married couples that are interspersed into the movie.
We also get to witness how people themselves change. When we meet the protagonists, they are young, confident and full of ideas. Some of those ideas go on to be dispelled by time, and some new ones take wing. So it's about personal growth.
The scene where Meg Ryan fakes an orgasm in the middle of a crowded diner is an absolute blast.
