When Billy Met Rob

Shortly after she made the gruesome discovery,Ā TMZĀ reports that Romy, 28, contacted Billy Crystal, who had been a close friend of her father for 50 years.

Crystal and Reiner’s ā€˜bromanceā€ began in 1975 on the set of the sitcomĀ All in the Family, where they played best friends on screen. Their connection extended far beyond television, continuing through numerous collaborations over the years.

ā€œIt worked really well, and we said, ā€˜It feels right onstage, why don’t we just continue this in our lives?’ We became the closest of friends,ā€ Crystal, 77, wrote of his early bond with Reiner in a 2016 personal essay forĀ The Hollywood Reporter.

Crystal then recalled that his ā€œfavorite momentā€ with his pal was at their first screening ofĀ When Harry Met Sally.ā€

ā€œRob and I were sitting in the back next to each other. Then the orgasm scene happens, and the place goes berserk. When Rob’s mother, Estelle, says, ā€˜I’ll have what she’s having,’ it was thunderous, a laugh you can only hear with the best of jokes in a concert hall. It’s those moments that make movies so spectacular: You set up the joke in September, and you don’t hear the punch line until May. We just grabbed each other’s hands because we knew something exciting was about to happen with this movie.ā€

 

 

ā€œHe was so smart and so accurate and funny at the same time. And he was a terrific actor as well. It’s a very impressive combination of talents that I first met – plus, he was just hilarious,ā€ Crystal added.
