Christmas Carol
 
   

Product Description

 
Ebeneezer Scrooge (Alastair Sim) contentedly meanders through his life as a cruel miser until one fateful Christmas Eve when he is visited by three ghosts. The spirits show him how his behavior has degenerated over the years as his heart has become colder. Using events from Scrooge's idealistic past, dreary present, and dismal future, the apparitions try their best to melt his steely soul. Will Scrooge see the error of his ways and learn the true meaning of Christmas? Check out this hailed classic and find out! Many critics widely consider this the definitive film version of Charles Dickens' cherished novel.

Are There No Prisons? Are There No Workhouses?

Date of Review:  Dec 16, 2000
Review: Charles Dickens?s A Christmas Carol is just the type of dramatic, heart-warming holiday story that begs to be filmed. And it has been. Dozens of times. Ebenezer Scrooge, the hard-hearted miser who believes that prisons and workhouses are suitable...
