You've Got Mail

Joe Fox and Kathleen Kelly live and work blocks from each other on New York City's Upper West
Side. They both buy groceries at Zabars; they pick their coffee up at the same Starbucks;
they roam the same charming streets. Joe lives with a brilliant, hyperactive book editor,
Patricia Eden (PARKER POSEY). Kathleen lives with a passionate, erudite newspaper columnist,
Frank Navasky (GREG KINNEAR). Each believes life and love to be satisfactory -- until they
meet each other in a computer chat room and begin conversing on e-mail.

Under the electronic pseudonyms NY152 and Shopgirl, Joe Fox and Kathleen Kelly find themselves
confiding everything to their unseen computer correspondent -- everything except their actual
identities. 

As friendship warms into affection on the Internet, Fox opens his superstore, the latest in
the national chain of Foxbooks, a few blocks from Kathleen Kelly's store, The Shop Around
the Corner. With its discounts, huge inventory and espresso bar, Foxbooks seems certain to put
Kathleen's cozy neighborhood store out of business. 

Kathleen inherited her shop from her mother, and it's been a community landmark for more
than 40 years. Now, with her legacy and livelihood about to be destroyed, she confides in the
faceless friend she has come to trust and value -- NY152. And Joe, who unexpectedly learns
the identity of his unknown confidante, also discovers an unmistakable attraction to
Kathleen in real life as well as on the computer screen. But how can he reconcile the
passionate, witty and kind Shopgirl with the guarded Kathleen who hates Joe and everything
his store stands for? How can he reveal himself without losing her?
