#MegRyanFall made the actor otherwise known as queen of the rom-com a hero for a whole new generation on TikTok. Because When Harry Met Sally is arguably the only movie to watch while cosying up in a chunky-knit jumper or sipping your first pumpkin-spiced latte of the season. You've Got Mail should also be on your watchlist; the charming film that sees rival bookstore owners unknowingly fall in love over dial-up internet while engaging in very public warfare in the West Village. Both were made to be viewed as the nights draw in and the leaves change colour.
And then of course there's the fashion. When #MegRyanFall amassed 1.4m views a couple of years ago on TikTok, users were posting their autumn 'fits that were heavy with references to Sally Albright. It's the ruby red turtlenecks worn with caramel-coloured blazers. It's the black brogues nestled into a carpet of crunchy brown leaves. And it's exactly, along with a pumpkin-spiced latte, what we feel like right now.
All of this got us thinking about other '90s films that provide inspiration for fall, where just looking at the clothes makes you want to turn on the central heating. Keep scrolling for the best fall films, guaranteed to make you say: we'll have what she's having.

7 of 7When Harry Met Sally
