Description

Christmas elicits nothing more than "bah, humbug!" from Ebenezer Scrooge (George Scott), a miser whose sole pursuit of financial success has left him a bitter and lonely old man. But a Christmas Eve visit from the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future ultimately teaches him to open his heart to the spirit of Christmas and to the joys of friends and family.

This is simply the greatest film of Charles Dickens Christmas novel. Yes, the 80s TV production looks very out dated now but the performances from this incredible cast are magical. Although the tone is quite serious, reflecting Dickens own work, there are still some brilliantly chuckle worthy moments to lighten the mood. Somehow, after 34 years, this version stands the test of time!

Wonderful
