【纯爱电影回顾】《电子情书》：美国式爱情童话
Joe and Kathleen live in the same area, the communicate through the Internet, using names "NY152" and "Shopgirl". But at the same time, they are also business rivals and competitors. Kathleen owns and runs a small, family bookstore called "The Shop Around the Corner." It is a popular children's bookstore and the people that work there are knowledgeable and kind. But, just around the block, Fox is building a giant mega-bookstore called Fox & Sons Books, and he is determined to wipe out any competition. Kathleen is optimistic, knowing that her loyal customers will continue to come to her store, but the other employees of "The Shop Around the Corner" know that Fox's discounts will surely drive the buyers to his store.
Joe and Kathleen meet, first in her bookstore and then at a social gathering, where she learns who he is. They are immediately disgusted by each other, not because of appearance but because of attitude. Joe is planning on wiping out the small, family enterprise, which Kathleen finds horrible, while Joe thinks Kathleen is snotty and... a bitch.
But, over email, they are in love with each other. It's just that neither of them know it yet.
Joe和Kathleen同生活和工作在纽约的西北区，同在一家商店购物，又同在一处买咖啡，而且还同延着一条街道散步。Joe和他做书籍编辑的女友共同生活，而Kathleen则与她做报纸专栏作家的男友在一起。他们都对自己的生活及爱情感到满意，直到两人在网络聊天室相识并且开始电子邮件往来。
计算机两端的陌生男女分别用NY152和Shopgirl的笔名倾诉着除了真实身份以外的生活中的一切。渐渐地，互联网上的友情升华成相互的爱慕之情。同时作为福克斯书业的最新连锁店也开张了，的确有缘，新的书店距Kathleen的“角落书店”仅几街区之遥。由于实力强大，福克斯书店有价格折扣，有详细的图书目录，而且还提供咖啡饮用。竞争使得Kathleen的小店面临倒闭的边缘。
Kathleen的书店是由母亲那一代继承下来的，并且已经是社区的一部分。看到40多年来的心血即将毁灭，Kathleen向NY152这个未曾谋面，却又十分信赖的知己倾诉心中的感慨。意外的获悉知己女友的身份，使得Joe越发为真实生活中的Kathleen所吸引，但是他要如何在那个热情、诙谐、善良的“Shopgirl”和对他及他的书店充满恨意的Kathleen之间周旋？ 他要如何表露自己的真实身份却又不失去她？他们该相见吗？
