A Christmas Carol
Miser Ebenezer Scrooge is awakened on Christmas Eve by spirits who reveal to him his own miserable existence, what opportunities he wasted in his youth, his current cruelties, and the dire fate that awaits him if he does not change his ways. Scrooge is faced with his own story of growing bitterness and meanness, and must decide what his own future will hold: death or redemption. From TMDB

unlabelledView post →There are some good adaptations of the Charles Dickens’ classic A Christmas Carol, and many bad ones, but only one truly great version, and it is the 1984 made-for-television movie starring George C. Scott. www.theatlantic.com/newsletters/...

unlabelledView post →Johnny Depp in a dark gritty reboot prequel of a Christmas Carol is the kind of thing you'd put in another movie as a joke about how Hollywood has got no ideas left. The fact that it got greenlit and people went along with it is, genuinely, everything that's wrong with Hollywood.

unlabelledView post →Speaking as the daughter of a market researcher for movies—not a great campaign. A Christmas Carol IS the story of his life before he became a miser. And Scrooge is his last name. He’s always been Scrooge. This tells you nothing new and different about this movie.
unlabelledView post →Hearing the Johnny Depp Scrooge movie is just a straight adaption of A Christmas Carol with weird marketing makes it even more hilarisad Buddy, A Muppet Christmas Carol already exists, we don't need you
unlabelledView post →If you can argue that Die Hard is a Christmas movie, you can also argue that A Christmas Carol is a horror movie. #letterboxdFriday #lastfourwatched #letterboxd #filmsky #HorrorSky
unlabelledView post →So now they're naming a Christmas Carol movie Ebenezer? You know what, there's a Christmas Carol movie called Scrooge. It stars Albert Finney, with songs by the great Leslie Bricusse. That's the one to watch.
unlabelledView post →i had a beautiful hardback, illustrated version of A Christmas Carol with the original text, that I read all winter growing up. The George C. Scott version of the story is a movie I have seen more than any other; it's a Grimes family staple. I hate seeing this easy story fucked up!
unlabelledView post →There's a collection of posts extolling the virtues of the Muppet Christmas Carol which is, I do not deny, an excellent adaptation of "A Christmas Carol". But it involves negatives for reading the actual story and pros for watching the movie and I know it is funny jokes time but.
unlabelledView post →A Christmas Carol is my favorite work of classic literature. Every Christmas I watch and review different variations, including weird and obscure film versions. Everytime directors go the "shitty rich people are very nuanced actually" Its BAD. Its ALWAYS BAD. www.avclub.com/scrooge-gray...

unlabelledView post →For me Charles Dickens’ ‘A Christmas Carol’ is the greatest story ever told but has there ever been a movie Tiny Tim that didn’t make you want to kick away his crutches and feed him to the Ghost of Christmas Yet To Come?
unlabelledView post →I always read this movie as an alternate take on A Christmas Carol- instead of a bad man who cannot see his harmful impact it’s a good man who can’t see his worth
unlabelledView post →It's #TerrorTwos, day 5! For my poster I chose the classic ghost story A CHRISTMAS CAROL The 1938 adaption of Dicken's classic book! The title work was inspired by the beautiful title cards used in the film. Check my profile for the Terror twos artist starter pack & feed! #art #poster

unlabelledView post →So everyone else is doing this about the Scrooge movie, but I’m adding my bit as a Dickens person and a Christmas Carol person in particular. We read this every Xmas when I was a child and we’ve continued this in my now family. Scrooge is not misunderstood. One of the themes is that Scrooge is 🧵
unlabelledView post →It's my annual viewing of the best version of A Christmas Carol—the 1951 film with Alastair Sim as Scrooge. And don't come at me with your Muppet bullshit. It's Alastair all the way.
unlabelledView post →Watched this yesterday for the first time since I was a little kid. It remains the definitive film treatment of A Christmas Carol 😉. I still find the Ghost Of Christmas Future to be pretty scary.
unlabelledView post →Merry Christmas! The 1951 British adaptation of A Christmas Carol, a.k.a. Scrooge, is the subject of my @trailersfromhell.bsky.social commentary today. Alastair Sim supplies the iconic Ebenezer Scrooge performance. trailersfromhell.com/a-christmas-...
unlabelledView post →While The Muppet Christmas Carol is the best version of A Christmas Carol, the best Christmas movie, and one of the best movies, generally, I do have to say that It's a Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie is underrated.
unlabelledView post →Tonight in 1971 — A CHRISTMAS CAROL debuted on ABC. Chilling, poignant, and beautiful, this animated version from director Richard Williams would later win an Oscar. Scrooge is voiced by Alastair Sim, star of the 1951 film. On YouTube: youtu.be/ZTzyC9CZuOA?... #Animation #ChristmasMovies

unlabelledView post →Just finished watching A Christmas Carol
unlabelledView post →If you're looking for a wild mess of a Christmas Carol experimental movie, I'd recommend Kelsey Grammar's "A Christmas Carol." This is what you get if someone actually tries to make the Christmas Carol adaptation Bill Murray's character was making in Scrooged.

unlabelledView post →At least Christmas Karma can rest easy, its crown as the one of worst versions of A Christmas Carol on film may be soon dethroned. And that one had Boy George in it.
unlabelledView post →Man, imagine asking us to choose between a Christmas Carol movie with Willem Dafoe and one with Johnny Depp and thinking most people aren't gonna be like, "Hell yeah, Willem Dafoe!"
unlabelledView post →Favourite Christmas movie and is it a tradition to watch it every year with your family? Mine is the 1951 - A Christmas Carol - Scrooge and....go
unlabelledView post →I know y'all think this "Ebeneezer" movie is a stupid idea because A Christmas Carol already showed his backstory, but this one goes back even further - it depicts Ebeneezer Scrooge as a zygote and the Muppets as raw un-knitted felt.
unlabelledView post →Merry Berry Christmas, Solstice & New Year to all followers! Tomorrow, I plan to watch a great Uk film on TV called "The Man Who Invented Christmas" about true life Charles Dickens & his inspiration behind "A Christmas Carol"...in today's chaotic world It's good to reflect deeply on this...

She also appeared with her parents, Gene and Kathleen Lockhart, in the 1938 film A Christmas Carol. #RIP

unlabelledView post →CASH ON DEMAND (Quentin Lawrence, 1961). What a wonderful little film this is! As others have mentioned it’s a spin on A CHRISTMAS CAROL masquerading as a heist movie. Tense, clever & surprisingly affecting, with a terrific suite of performances from the three leads. (1/3) #FilmSky #1961Club
unlabelledView post →everybody's pissed off about how defensible it is for my Halloween Spooktacular Movie Marathon to include A Christmas Carol
unlabelledView post →Honestly don't know why anyone would make a Christmas Carol movie after the Muppets. That's like doing a cover of 'With a Little Help From My Friends' after Joe Cocker.
unlabelledView post →This is not A Christmas Carol. This is a movie about the toy that A Christmas Carol is based on.
unlabelledView post →“Morally-gray a Christmas Carol” is the kind of film pitch idea you couldn’t waterboard out of me at knifepoint
unlabelledView post →That Ebeneezer trailer going with "The name you know, the story you don't" seems a bit of a wild assumption given that A Christmas Carol must be one of the most re-told and well-trodden stories in film and TV history.
