There's no doubt that every film Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan has become a classic.
When it comes to Hollywood's best screen companions, everyone will mention them.
They collaborated on four films, The Wonderland of Magic Island, Sleepless in Seattle, e-Love Letters, and Ithaca.
They make us believe that you can fall in love with strangers who live on the other side of the globe or in online chat rooms.
You can even fall in love with people while watching volcanoes.
There is no doubt that Hanks and Ryan have worked together so many times because they have both a good feeling and a friendship of decades.
They're like Johnny Depp and Tim Burton, or Robert De Niro and Al Pacino.
Only when two people trust each other and have a close relationship can a classic film be made.

Before Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore became the best CP in Hollywood, it was the reign of Hanks and Ryan.
Throughout their acting careers, they are the kind of actors who can stand alone.
Therefore, it is not surprising that their next cooperation can "spark".
On the 25th anniversary of the release of Sleepless in Seattle, Ryan told producer Gary Foster that working with Hanks was "easy."
"He was so cooperative," Ryan told Foster, "and he was not only good at listening, but he was also a good advocate for other people." ”
She continued: "Hanks doesn't like being too dramatic, and I think the same way. It's like we're playing, it should be a creative process, there's no need to take it too seriously. ”
Even though there was only a gap of five years between the filming of "Sleepless in Seattle" and "e-Love Letters," Hanks said at the launch of the latter film that he felt as if the two had been working together.
"In the history of cinema, there are many creative teams that work together on a regular basis. Sometimes they're male, sometimes they're female," Hanks said in an interview.
"This is my third collaboration with Ryan and we are 'going to go back to the frontier'."
Hanks said Ryan was "very smart" and he had to work hard to keep up with her.

In 2002, the American Film School presented Hanks with the AFI Lifetime Achievement Award, and Ryan addressed the scene.
In her speech, she humorously said that she had known Hanks for a long time:
"I think Tom told the other people named Tom that Tom loves to watch movies and make movies; Tom loves to wear baseball caps and nibble on corn..."
Seventeen years after making "E-Love Letters," Ryan contacted Hanks again to ask him to appear in her film Ithaca.
Although Hanks only played a small role in it, Ryan was still grateful.
"He was so nice, he didn't have to do that," Ryan told Entertainment Weekly.
"His scene was filmed in just one day. Finally, he said to the crew, 'Well, after 10 hours of collaboration, we all got to know each other, but I still want to thank everyone for coming to shoot for my friend Ryan.' 'Thanks for his friendship. ”
Of course, given their accomplishments, any time they get back together is a big deal.
In 2016, when Hanks participated in "Good Morning America", he was very excited to see Ryan present.
None of us can say for sure if Hanks and Ryan will work together again in the future (in romance). However, they have already contributed wonderful performances to us and brought us good memories.
