One year after her megasmash in\u00a0<i>Sleepless in Seattle<\/i>, the film stars Ryan as a woman entering recovery for alcoholism and Andy Garcia as her husband struggling to find normalcy. Though the film was a critical and box office success, an early summer release and scattered Best Actress year kept Ryan from her elusive first Oscar nomination.<\/p>\n<p>This episode, we talk about how the film subverts romantic drama expectations by not letting the male lead off the hook when it shouldn\u2019t. We also talk about Tina Majorino and Mae Whitman in their child star days, Meg Ryan\u2019s Lead Actress nomination from SAG in their inaugural awards, and Andy Garcia as eternally hot.<\/p>\n<p>Topics also include the MTV Movie Awards\u2019 Most Desirable categories, movies from the 90s that exist only as titles or posters, Lauren Tom when she broke up Ross and Rachel.<\/p>\n<p>Follow Us on Twitter!<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Had_Oscar_Buzz\">@Had_Oscar_Buzz<\/a><br \/>\nJoe: <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/joereid\">@joereid<\/a><br \/>\nChris: <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/chrisvfeil\">@chrisvfeil<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"powerpress_player\" id=\"powerpress_player_5482\"><audio class=\"wp-audio-shortcode\" id=\"audio-500-1\" preload=\"none\" style=\"width: 100%;\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"audio\/mpeg\" src=\"https:\/\/media.blubrry.com\/3563080\/fightinginthewarroom.com\/THOB\/EP\/THOB_EP_129_When_A_Man_Loves_A_Woman.mp3?_=1\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/media.blubrry.com\/3563080\/fightinginthewarroom.com\/THOB\/EP\/THOB_EP_129_When_A_Man_Loves_A_Woman.mp3\">https:\/\/media.blubrry.com\/3563080\/fightinginthewarroom.com\/THOB\/EP\/THOB_EP_129_When_A_Man_Loves_A_Woman.mp3<\/a><\/audio><\/div><p class=\"powerpress_links powerpress_links_mp3\" style=\"margin-bottom: 1px !important;\">Podcast: <a href=\"https:\/\/media.blubrry.com\/3563080\/fightinginthewarroom.com\/THOB\/EP\/THOB_EP_129_When_A_Man_Loves_A_Woman.mp3\" class=\"powerpress_link_pinw\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Play in new window\" onclick=\"return powerpress_pinw('https:\/\/fightinginthewarroom.com\/THOB\/?powerpress_pinw=500-podcast');\" rel=\"nofollow\">Play in new window<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/media.blubrry.com\/3563080\/fightinginthewarroom.com\/THOB\/EP\/THOB_EP_129_When_A_Man_Loves_A_Woman.mp3\" class=\"powerpress_link_d\" title=\"Download\" rel=\"nofollow\" download=\"THOB_EP_129_When_A_Man_Loves_A_Woman.mp3\">Download<\/a><\/p><p class=\"powerpress_links powerpress_subscribe_links\">Subscribe: <a href=\"https:\/\/fightinginthewarroom.com\/THOB\/feed\/podcast\/\" class=\"powerpress_link_subscribe powerpress_link_subscribe_rss\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Subscribe via RSS\" rel=\"nofollow\">RSS<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For our third episode on Meg Ryan, we\u2019re going back to 1994 with\u00a0When A Man Loves a Woman.
