As Clea DuVall notes, it’s easy as a fan of Happiest Season to let a kind of anger rule the day and see Abby spurn Harper at the end. After all, Harper’s behavior towards her girlfriend when her family is around is downright mean at some points in the film, and Riley is not only exclusively nice to Abby, but also provides even more context that makes Mackenzie Davis’ character not look so great. What can be forgotten within that, however, is the recognition that Harper A) should be allowed to be a flawed human being, and B) that she is put in a remarkably difficult/horrible situation by her family.
