I'm italian and I didn't know the Shoes books collection and in italian Meg Ryan talks about "I libri delle scarpe..." and I never knew what that was about. Today I saw the "Ballet shoes" movie with Emma Watson and I had a flash and I looked on RUclips, found this video and yes!!! Now everything makes sense!! Eh, you can't know everything, it is so good when something comes to you at the right moment!! Now I'll buy all the books!!!! Starting with "Ballet shoes", of course! Thank you so much for the video! :)
I'm Italian too, yesterday I was in a bookshop in Oxford, when I saw the children section I had to ask if they had them and now I'll soon start the one I bought: "Ballet Shoes" obviously
Independent bookstores usually have employees ("booksellers") who are knowledgeable not only about books & authors, but also about their customers' reading preferences. I've never seen much evidence of either qualification from staff at big box book stores, and I miss that. You're definitely on your own at those places. Years ago I patronized a wonderful independent bookstore in my community (now closed). Staff introduced me to literary fiction and several authors who were included in that category. I still rely on the knowledge they shared with me whenever I'm browsing for a new book.
@@vivianpowell1732 That sounds wonderful. I never had that experience mostly because by the time I was old enough to do that, independent book stores were no longer a common thing.
They are beautiful and charming and the staff are always friendly and helpful. My worry is that as much as I love those stores.......like 99% of the world I am on a budget and attending law school....so i have to go towards the cheaper prices because law books are not cheap.
I've read that big bookstores are actually struggling because of Amazon and ebooks (for example, Borders went out of business years ago), and small independent bookstores now have more of a chance. I usually see used bookstores but there are some that sell new books as well.
Depressing trivia: the big bad Fox Books location used in the film was a Barnes & Noble in Lincoln Square. It closed in 2011 and was replaced by a Century 21 which itself closed in 2020 when the company went bankrupt. The space is currently still vacant.
Art mimicking or more accurately portraying real life I'm afraid. In this touching scene where the character played so beautifully by Meg Ryan walks into "enemy" territory she comes to recognise sadly that her little children's bookshop around the corner really didn't stand much of a chance against the "Big Bad Prowling Fox". The economies of scale were against her. She also realized that her competition's staff, while they may not be up to her intellectual standards or exhibit much literary expertise in the promotion of good reading for minors, nevertheless could be compensated for a thousand times over by giving their customers what they really want: Cheap books with plenty of choice and ample space to relax in and enjoy the buying experience. And of course, the ability to purchase any such expertise should it become available. Whoever said Capitalism was about free and fair competition anyway? It's more often than not about unfair monopoly, always has been and when functioning in the interests of private capital free from effective constraint, always will be. If the authorities in the USA or indeed any country where a so-called free market capitalist system is practised were truly interested in protecting the commercial interests of small operators, then a highly effective interventionist approach by the Government and a Monopolies and Mergers Commission with real teeth would be put in place, so that overly large companies like a Fox Books couldn't drive out its competition. Some hope of that at present. Money tends to buy quite a bit of political influence don't you find. To my mind, no private company however constituted (Plc or otherwise) should be allowed to collar more than say 10% of any given market. If they do acquire through various commercial or other means a share above say 50% then they should be Nationalised until they can be legally and sensibly broken up and if not they should remain as Public Monopolies. In my world, private monopolies would be outlawed because these companies have far too much undue power and influence over the rest of society. At least with Publicly owned monopolies, there is a degree of political accountability. Give me a political party with that as part of their manifesto with the balls to carry it through, and then they might get my vote.
i love the scene when she flashbacks to twirling with her mother.... so heartfelt "i feel as if a part of me has died, and my mother has died all over again.... and no one, can ever make it right..." man i wanted to make it right .....
I went through a similar situation back in 2018 when I worked in a small hardware store called Orchard Supply Hardware. Man, that was hard! I don't wish anyone to work a store close out! It's tough!
Borders Bookstore went out of business in 2011. I'm surprised Barnes and Noble still has over 600 operating stores nationwide. Unfortunately they are losing millions, every year. Who knows how long they will last.
Right? I miss going to Borders. There was one really close to one of the movie theaters in my city, my friends and I would buy our movie tickets and then we'd walk over to Borders to kill time until our movie started. I loved going there. Barnes and Noble is ok but expensive. I usually stick to Half Price 😕
Noel Streatfeild Noel Streatfeild wrote The Ballet Shoes The Skating Shoes Theatre shoes Dancing Shoes I'd start with the Ballet Shoes first It's my favorite Although Skating Shoes Is completely wonderful But it's out of print..
Ironically a person like Kelly could actually have a very successful youtube career talking about books and recommending her favorites. Like many people on youtube already do.
And this is another wonderful movie you you got mail, tom Hanks, and Meg Ryan, the last scene of them in the park when Megan says I was hoping it would be you
Today Barnes and Noble branches are closing, reducing their book stock to make room for calendars, cheap gifts, toys, and other discount merch, as Amazon gobbles up their business. And NYC over the past decade (mostly prior to pandemic), has enjoyed an increase of independent bookstores, although mostly specialty or used books.
THe memories of her mother weren't destroyed. I know it is difficult but it's just a place. What her mom did and how she feels about her didn't change.
I'm watching The Mindy Project with my brother, and about a month / a month and a half ago, I looked up Chris Messina to see what other film/ TV roles he did, and it said You've Got Mail. I was trying to remember who he could have played. It's funny, I remember this scene and I thought "Wow. Okay. He plays THIS guy." I remember when I watched this movie, thinking Kathleen Kelly really knew her books (especially Children's) and her little book store is being shut down. You've Got Mail was one of three Nora Ephron films that was referenced in The Mindy Project too.
one of my fav scenes of the film. love you've got mail, sooooo much. can anyone tell me what the song is when she is walking through the streets in this scene, plz? cheers
I get her baby gap comment, Joe fox should have done something lovely and had an end credit that he gave her back her bookshop as a wedding gift Just saying

Bonjour. Svp, je cherche le titre d'un film que j'ai vu sur youtube en 2015. C'est l'histoire d'un homme qui a perdu la mémoire et qui a travaillé à la nasa .merci
People love mom pop book stores because unlike amazon their not artificial their real people you can talk to a real book is something you can feel and smell the paper not with a kindle or tablet it’s not real it’s just artificial no human contact

Adorable comment and informative about the Movie . 🙂
I'm going to buy ballet shoes next month. I watched this movie when I was a kid and I have always wondered about that book.
I like this comment. It's honestly pretty cool how you learn random things sometimes. It's like slumdog millionaire if you've ever seen that movie
I love when everything comes together like that.
I hope book stores stay open forever. They are very personal and beautiful. No Ebook can replace that.

Good. I am glad.
it's always depressing when an independent bookstore closes
Seeing lots of bookstores close as we emerge from the pandemic...
When anything independent closes. The good owners reinvent themselves and stay valid. The others cash out, take the money and run.
@@ayakasalih4189 Not just independent bookstores, but other independent businesses.

This movie keeps getting sader and sader as time goes by
“Sadder” Boo
Love the Anne of Green Gables reference. This movie is so good and this part is so sad. I wish she could have kept her store.

Thanks to this scene, I had to get the Ballet Shoes book. I still have it to this day. :)
There are PLENTY of other books in the series and many have similar themes of children in the theater, etc.
@@yelloworangered 😊 thank you for the info! I actually forgot about it. I'll have to look them up! 😁
@@LilyZerep :) It makes me very happy to help you remember about the rest of the series. It is one of the best. :)
Thanks so much. This is one of my favourite part of the movie. Especially when she talks about the writer Noel Streatfeild. It's very moving..
To think, an online bookstore killed these wonderful book stores, big and small. Ironyw
Yeah, a similar service that is cheaper and more convenient. Who would have thought. I know it sucks but you adapt or die.

These part of movie so sad 😢 truly i like these movie ever❤❤❤
⚡️simply talented. I love this film. I hope someone can make one to top it!
These days, we wish we could keep any brick and mortar stores, even superstores like Barnes and Noble, open against the competition of Amazon.
I'm a guy and I read one of the books after this scene (years ago) and I am glad I did because it was something different.
Joe fox must have super hearing
Thanks for watching, its my favorite scene too
dude that's chris messina!

And then she forgives this person who destroyed her bookstore and the memories of her mother
THe memories of her mother weren't destroyed. I know it is difficult but it's just a place. What her mom did and how she feels about her didn't change.
Agreed, not a believable couple.
Don't know if she forgives as much as accepts.

Remember by Harry Nilsson
I think she misspelled Streatfeild, and she should have said Streatfield.
She spelled it right. I have just searched on Google. The name appears on the book cover.
Amazon close Fox...there always bigger shark in the ocean.
*The Mindy Project ‘s Danny Castellano* 2:33
fla la Chris Messina was born in 1974, so I figure he was about 23 when this was shot. Living proof that men get sexier as they age.
He was soo young. So adorable.

Possibly, seems to be a fan of novels although not nearly as much as she is. I never thought of him as a bad guy. People go towards the cheaper prices.....that’s just how it is.
I loved his face when his employer asked how to spell it.
blpalv15 perhaps he saw here point in the lack of knowledge at their store . Perhaps that was one of the reasons why he hired some of her staff.
@@blpalv15 I was more surprised he could hear them from standing that distance
Wait for Amazon if you don’t like B&N, Borders, etc. etc. .... bigger shark 🦈 but useful, if you like to buy online. Apparently.
