Book superstore magnate Joe Fox and independent book shop owner Kathleen Kelly fall in love in the anonymity of the Internet—both blissfully unaware that he's trying to put her out of business.
Editor's Verdict
"While 'You've Got Mail' is primarily a romantic comedy focused on the rivalry between two bookstore owners, its latter half is heavily steeped in Christmas atmosphere and tradition. The climax and resolution—the famous reunion in Riverside Park—occur during the holiday season, giving Christmas significant emotional weight to the characters' transformation and reconciliation. It meets several moderate criteria but lacks the year-round Christmas focus of a 'YES' classification."
