You've Got Mail



Nora Ephron's You've Got Mail starring Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks in a perfect movie in my book. It's smart and witty. I love the banter between Ryan and Hanks. Every plot development is completely natural. I not only cared about this opposites-attract couple getting together, I really cared about the little bookstore. I hate seeing it close down each time I watch this modern classic.

The supporting cast is strong; each character is unique, real. Everyone's playing at the top of their game. I wish they'd reunite for some project, not necessarily a sequel.



I really miss this level of quality in film. Where are the new romantic comedies of this ilk?
