I've read and reread A Christmas Carol and I think this is one of the finest versions put to screen. Yes it's true that it isn't a word for word, scene for scene by the book portrayal but what it is, so close to what Dickens' was trying to make people see. The songs are wonderful, the costume well designed. I have different copies of this and am glad to watch it a couple times a year. Happy that others gat as much joy from it as I do.
@jeastwood7358 Жыл бұрын
it is not a Christmas Carol though they even change the name because it was rewritten… I find it disrespectful of Charles Dickens… And Dickens told and portrayed the image of what he wanted people to see… He wanted people to use their own imaginations so they would understand it better…… It was more personal when he told it the way he told it instead of turning it into a show like this… If you want Hollywood this is it…

It is interesting to point out that one of the cast members, PADDY STONE was director/choreographer of Fizzewig's Christmas dance numbers, "Dec the 25" & Father Christmas, & THANK YOU VERY MUCH. Also: He played The Ghost Of Christmas yet to Come, though NOT "Charles Dickens Correct" The Ghost of Christmas Yet to come, WAS NOT THE GRIM REAPER !!! Skeleton 💀 Face & Hands ! Nor the trip to Hell. But this was a 🎼 Musical Version of Dicken's Novella, so anything goes.

The one scene they always cut down a bit on live TV was when Scrooge falls into his grave and ends up in Hell then greeted by Marley again. I guess they did that so it wouldn't scare little kids too much.
