Oh Christmas Tree!

As a 'Comedy, Family, Romance' Christmas movie, the audience's emotional responses are predominantly positive and heartwarming. Humor is a top emotion, stemming from the lighthearted conflicts and character interactions, particularly Elise's initial grumpiness and her dynamic with the 'scrooge' CEO, Gary. Joy and Love are central, driven by the festive Christmas spirit, Elise's personal transformation, the blossoming romance with Darren, and the overarching theme of family and community. Happiness is pervasive, reflecting the overall feel-good nature of the film and the successful resolution of challenges. Hope is significant, as the plot revolves around the possibility of a 'Christmas Eve miracle' to save the family business and transform a cynical character. Relief and Satisfaction are strongly felt as the obstacles are overcome and the story culminates in a happy, festive ending, characteristic of the genre.
