“What will NY152 say today, I wonder. I turn on my computer. I wait impatiently as it connects. I go online — and my breath catches in my chest until I hear three little words: “You’ve got mail.” I hear nothing, not even a sound on the streets of New York. Just the beat of my own heart. I have mail. From you.”

YOU’VE GOT MAIL (1998) dir. Nora Ephron
