It’s over 2,000 miles from Los Angeles, but Dennis Quaid now calls Nashville home. “So many people are moving out of California because they just don’t make it easy to live there. It’s getting harder and harder to build something there, says the Emmy Award nominated actor.

Ryan next starred in The Doors, which was moderately successful, and Prelude to a Kiss, which flopped. The year 1993 saw the release of the hugely successful romantic comedy Sleepless in Seattle, which paired Ryan for a second time with Tom Hanks. They had previously been paired as romantic leads in the film Joe Versus the Volcano—a commercial disappointment which later developed a cult following. Hanks and Ryan would be paired for a third time in the film You’ve Got Mail. She was offered the role of the protagonist Clarice Starling in The Silence of the Lambs (1991), but rejected it due to its gruesome and violent themes.

In 1994, Ryan took a role that differed from the romantic-comedy ingenue character for which she had become famous. In Luis Mandoki’s When a Man Loves a Woman (1994), a romantic social drama film also starring Andy Garcia, she played an alcoholic high-school guidance counselor. The film and her performance were both well received by critics. One critic called the film “a first-class production, accentuated by fine performances and an unflinching script”, and another praised Ryan for her “roller-coaster role”. The film was a notable success in its domestic run, grossing $50 million in the United States alone, and garnered the actress her first Screen Actors Guild Award nomination. The same year, Ryan returned to type, starring alongside Tim Robbins in Fred Schepisi’s romantic comedy I.Q. The film centers on a mechanic and a Princeton doctoral candidate who fall in love, with the aid of the graduate student’s uncle, Albert Einstein (played by Walter Matthau). Ryan later won Harvard’s Hasty Pudding Woman of the Year award, and People Magazine dubbed her one of “the 50 most beautiful people in the world”.

In 1995, critic Richard Corliss called her “the current soul of romantic comedy”. That same year, she appeared opposite Kevin Kline in Lawrence Kasdan’s French Kiss, a romantic comedy that catered to her “America’s Sweetheart” image, and Ryan was awarded the Women in Film Crystal Award. (This award is given to “outstanding women who, through their endurance and the excellence of their work, have helped to expand the role of women within the entertainment industry”.)
