Is There a Difference Between a Christmas Movie and a Hallmark Movie?

"For me, I feel like the condescension that comes from writing a Christmas movie or writing rom-coms or Hallmark movies is always comes back to the patriarchy," she said. "The fact that we as women might enjoy these movies is looked down upon because our experience is not valued." She added: "If I can be the person that brings some sort of lightness and joy or just relief, then that to me is more rewarding than a movie that just made someone feel bad about the world"
