• You've Got Mail is a romantic comedy set in New York that tells the story of how the owner of a large Barnes & Noble style bookstore falls in love with the owner of a small bookstore via AOL. They meet in a chat room known as "NY152" and "Shopgirl", getting along well, not knowing that they are rivals, with the larger store threatening to shut down the smaller owner-operated bookstore. Joe realizes who Kathleen is, but does not want to reveal his identity. Kathleen begins a war with Joe's bookstore, declaring a boycott. When Joe reveals who he is, Kathleen does not want to have anything to do with him. Joe fights to gain her trust, who eventually gives into him, realizing he is a nice person and is not trying to put her out of business. The two fall in love, with the movie ending as the two kiss.
