- Quotes
Jenny: It's a party for nurses. You know, they're hard-working, underpaid...
Store Manager: Yea, I'm hard-working and underpaid.
Jenny: But look how much I'm buying, through.
Store Manager: Discounts on advertised items only.
Jenny: Come on, Chris... Can I call you Chris? I'm on really tight budget here.
Matt: You know, I can actually verify that. There was a tight fisted, bean-counting Scrooge, just slashed it to shreds.
Store Manager: This is not my problem.
Jenny: You know what? Community Memorial is a non-profit, so any sorts of discount that the store wants to give would be considered a tax write-off.
Store Manager: Are you authorized to take donations on behalf of hospital?
Jenny: No, but he is.
Matt: I am. I am because I am the CFO of the hospital.
Store Manager: There is a form for that. I'll be right back.
Matt: Thanks Chris.
Jenny: Great.
Matt: Uh, you're welcome.
Jenny: Thank you.
Matt: Wow... That's a pretty... That's a pretty cold shoulder. Let me see... Is this?
Jenny: Nope, not going to find that one any warmer.
Matt: It's pretty frosty, too.
Jenny: You know what? I get that you're trying to be funny right now.
Matt: I'm bringing my best stuff here.
Jenny: I'm not going to take the bait...
Matt: Why... a little bit, you are. Little bit.
Jenny: I told you how I feel about what are you doing at the hospital this morning.
Matt: Jenny, my job is not me.
Jenny: Well, mine is.

Very very pleasant lead actress and actor (Jenny and Matt) make this a delightful one to watch. There is a conflict on her part and even a hint of a "White Christmas" (Bing Crosby Rosemary Clooney) misunderstanding at the end. The supporting role of Alice made for some of the nicest heartfelt moments in the movie- well done.
The Neo Natal Ward at the hospital was well done with the care they provide the families. The smaller part of parents the baby in the incubator did make me wonder where I had seen him before-- Looked it up- he was in 4 Christmas Movies in 2016. The lady that played a small part as Matt's sister looked familiar and had starred in Nine Lives of Christmas.
I am borderline on this- but yes I would watch it again. Even though we were tired we did not doze. I gave it a 9 instead of an 8 because of a surprise at the end and the Neo Natal care for the family aspect.
Some criticisms. The movie title is a bit of a stretch. Another ice skating scene- really?
My family criticized my criticisms. There is a pledge/farewell that is said by the staff to the parents that has "Hearts" in it. I did not quite catch that, but thought it is great they do the pledge. The staff is about Heart and not the bottom line, hence the "Hearts of Christmas" title. Also what happens at the ice skating rink does contribute to the story.
