TODAY IS: Of course, Valentine's Day, beloved of greeting card companies, florists, and chocolatiers, despised by happy and unhappy singles alike, and eagerly anticipated by lovers. Many an amorous couple has made an appointment for a rendezvous for this day, most famously, perhaps, Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks in 1993's SLEEPLESS IN SEATTLE. Though their rather inadvertent meeting atop the Empire State Building on Valentine's evening was inspired by a similar tryst in the soapy chick flick AN AFFAIR TO REMEMBER, Ryan and Hanks' charming romantic comedy is the movie more associated with this day.
