The Shop Around the Corner
Posted by claresiobhan on Feb 16th, 2008
Just watched The Shop Around the Corner tonight with the kids, the 1940 movie with James Stewart and Margaret Sullavan, upon which You’ve Got Mail was based.
Funny! Very good. Possibly problematic: an off-screen (and unsuccessful) suicide attempt, and an extramarital affair that also occurs entirely off-screen. Less problematic than the co-habitation (and understood fornication) that takes place in YGM.
We all enjoyed it.
