Christmas CEO (2021)
Manage episode 455595853 series 2591087
Respect for CEOs is at an all time high this holiday season, so there’s no better time to enjoy this Hallmark movie about corporate hierarchy. Christmas (that’s her name!) is the high powered girl-boss CEO of CJ Toys, a company she co-founded with her former best friend John, who left the company because he felt that maximizing profits impacted the wholesome mission of making toys. Anyone who has ever watched a Hallmark movie knows that what a successful woman needs is a free-spirited man to chill her out a bit, so it’s no surprise that CHRISTMAS CEO is about the rekindling of Christmas and John’s friendship into a romance of opposites. Hallmark movies reinforce traditional gender roles by pretending to break them. Women are go-getters in the corporate world while men have abdicated breadwinner status to enjoy independent yet domestic lives. However, man and woman’s souls are empty without each other, and it’s clear that each party’s charming quirks are merely cope for anxieties of not being able to live up to their sexual stereotypes. CHRISTMAS CEO concludes with John giving Christmas an ultimatum to choose between her lifelong dream job or romance with him, and of course she chooses him! CHRISTMAS CEO is typical brainless Hallmark fun for the whole family that makes being a CEO look really easy as long as you don’t get on the wrong person’s “naughty list.”
