Thank you very Much (reprise) Scrooge (1970)

The reprise to "Thank you very much" through to the end. Merry Christmas.

[@FishpondsLady]

My daughter, who's now 16, insists we watch this every Christmas Day. It's her favourite film.

[@j.i.r608]

She has excellent taste

[@tnvol2011]

She has EXCELLENT TASTE!!! 👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@BarryHart-xo1oy]

Good for her.

[@gregor5423]

What a legend of a child ❤

[@BillyButcher90]

She must've had a crush on Albert Finney...😜

[@TPBass1224]

Dickens' wonderful tale of redemption & salvation for the hopeless put to music. This is what it's all about. It's not Christmas without this movie.

[@kimberlyhenderson4806]

Right

[@marymurphy9994]

My favorite Scrooge movie of all time. Albert Finney nails the humanity of the man.

[@stephenfarthing1522]

It's a unmitigated pity that we've too many Scrooges everywhere! They could learn a few things here.

[@leonardHughes-iq3wv]

Albert Finney was better in this than in 1982s annie.

[@BaronVonLevitt]

I think for me, the one with alastair sim beats out this one by a bit but this is my favorite A Christmas Carol Musical movie

[@GregOrCreg]

@@leonardHughes-iq3wv He was great, and underrated, in both.

[@BarryHart-xo1oy]

You are quite right.

[@emmajohnson7364]

What a classic scene. It's a shame how underrated this movie is. Quite possibly my favorite Christmas movie, lucky my dad showed it to me

+Emma Johnson its the exact same for me, favourite christmas film, and my dad showed me xx

[@chowbaby63]

And my Dad showed me too ! :)

[@emmajohnson7364]

Jacqui our parents share similar tastes lol. I just finished watching it again! Merry Christmas!

[@chowbaby63]

My very favorite Christmas movie Emma and your too thanks to our Dad's ! My Dad passed away in 2000 but every Christmas I think of him & I watching this movie. Thank You Very Much was his favorite song from Scrooge and he'd sing it randomly thru out the year. Merry Christmas to you & your family :)

[@JohnSmith-lb9nx]

Luckily My Grandma showed it to me when I was 7. I'm fucking 30 now! hahaha

[@deborahallison2677]

I always felt this was the best Scrooge movie ever made. I wish it was on every year

[@bubbles8871]

"Your salary will be doubled!" "Doubled!? He _has_ gone mad!"

I cried when he said that he was going to celebrate Christmas with his family because that was probably the very first time he has ever said that :')

Same. Every time I’ve watched since childhood. Same.

[@kennyfordham6208]

I'm not crying (sniff 😢). It's...it's just allergies.

[@cameronmonaghan6883]

I always think about what happens to Jacob Marley after the story's end. Reason suggests that he remains chained. But I hope he actually gets some sort of reward for saving Scrooge and in turn helping a lot of people.

[@deadpoolspidermant5233]

I remember being in the hospital back in 2015 and waking up in the middle of the night and finding this movie on tv. I loved it ever scene

[@coolpapab]

My favorite Scrooge movie of all time. And I've seen just about all of them. I find myself singing this song every now and then in the middle off the day.

[@michaelpelaez7468]

same here :)

Me too!!!!!!

I do the same. I’d bet you are an overall happy person.

[@DarkMachineNation]

Scrooge's last call of "merry christmas" nearly brings tears to my eyes every time. :')

[@Sub___Zero]

Τhe *BEST* version of Scrooge , and off course....that scene , makes it even better !

[@tyrexdino]

One of the best versions. I love it because I can feel the change and joy that emanates from Scrooge. I love how he states he is having dinner with his family.

[@Porn05Mouth]

Albert Finney was an absolutely brilliant actor.

[@michaelcrennan7856]

THIS VERSION IS UNDERRATED IN 2019!!! MERRY CHRISTMAS!

[@markmike7933]

Throughout history famous writers and artists and composers and their work weren't thought of as much at the time..Edgar Allen Poe comes to mind...I guess some things don't change. Didn't do so well at the box office but has brought many millions since tremendous joy :)

[@lynnann779]

The greatest Scrooge movie/musical ever!!!! Simply, the BEST! ❤

[@ceterasure]

Absolutely agree! No one else has come close to playing Scrooge better than Albert Finney in this movie! I love the songs, but it also would've been great if the same cast had done a non-musical version too! 😊

[@deaconfrost4100]

One of my favorite versions of the story...well done cinema and casting...you see the real rebirth of Scrooge in every moment ❤❤

[@robinchessman350]

The best musical version by a long way

[@johnjarou2357]

agreed!

[@raspberrycrowns9494]

Are there other musical versions?

[@simonster-9094]

@@raspberrycrowns9494 There's the Mr. Magoo version which is a musical (quite literally as it's a show within a show), this one, the Muppets version and the 2004 movie with Kelsey Grammar as Scrooge are the other musical versions (that I know about at least)

[@googamp32]

Well, best musical version that doesn't have The Muppets, at least.

[@cindymartinez128]

Every time my daughter and I say thank you, it is "thank you very much" with a bit of a tune. She has been in love with this movie since the age of three, now almost twenty-six. My tree topper this year is a top hat, in honor of this movie. ❤

[@heididietrich9800]

That's so cool

[@Porn05Mouth]

When I went to the UK recently, I was shocked to hear people say “thank you very much” all the time-almost never just “thank you.” It was an a-ha for me. “Ohhhhh! That song is a British thing!” Lol

[@MrAnniebaby]

That’s beautiful

[@brightbite]

Scrooge having Christmas dinner with his family. A moving dialogue because so many this time of year either have no family, or the families they have are so toxic that going home for dinner is impossible.

[@johnking5174]

RIP Albert Finney who died today Friday 8th February 2019 at the age of 82.

[@jorgelopez-pr6dr]

The best version ever.

[@phoenixman8569]

The thankyou very very very much part has been in my head off and on for years, and i could not for the life of me remember where i heard it before, now i must find the whole movie to rewatch, it must have been decades since i saw it as a boy...

[@tonycanabal1659]

The one movie where both meanings of this song are presented, when Scrooge is dead and Scrooge is redeemed.

[@IanWonnacott]

I sit down every Christmas day and watch this film with my family, the best version and great musical, wit a feel good factor.

[@thomasalvarez6456]

we do too its 11 out of 10 its perfect

[@thegorn68]

All other versions of A Christmas Carol just fail in comparison to this one. There's certain film versions of stories that will always be the standard for me (i.e. Franco Zeffirelli's Romeo and Juliet, George C Scott as Patton, Christopher Reeve in his first Superman film, etc.) This version of Dickens' famous tale is the standard for me. I have to watch it every year.

[@supersonicbird11]

as mentioned this version is so underated ? its got Albert Finney, Sir Alec Guiness , and Dame Edith Evans and the London philharmonic orchestra ...and excellent musical score..its a real classic apdentation

[@jasonphillips5816]

A few years late, but don't forget Kenneth More and Anton Rodgers

[@eyescandeceive]

this version is definitely underrated and I have no idea why. I'm surprised it isn't treated like one of those classics that gets played every Xmas with great fanfare. i especially like it because it brings back happy memories of seeing it as a child with my mom (who is no longer living). as she drove home from the theatre she was singing Thank You Very Much and every time she told someone about the movie she would laugh and say "the whole town was so happy when he died they danced on his grave and sang thank you very very very much!"

[@Porn05Mouth]

In the 80s, they played it mutliple times each Christmas. I always looked forward to watching it. It wasn’t Christmas until I watched it...still isn’t, come to think of it; just now I have to watch on DVD.

[@Nepthu]

@@Porn05Mouth I grew up watching it all the time too. Now I have to search it on youtube. I was thinking of this song today.

@@Nepthu Isnt it amazing?

[@IBCat1]

Best Christmas Movie EVER!!!!!!!

[@eyescandeceive]

well, I still give "It's a Wonderful Life" that distinction. but IAWL isn't a musical, and this song (the reprise) is such a joyful expression of the Xmas spirit

[@ekdog91]

Agreed

[@7Lukibi99Tore7]

What a classic music finale to one of the greatest movies of all-time!!!!!!! ''Thank you very, very much''!!!!!!!

[@nelsonwhaley6348]

This, with Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, is one of my favourite films. Agree, underrated. Incredible staging, casting with Finney and Anton Rogers, Laurence Naismith etc...one of the last Engish home grown greats..super Bricusse music....

[@Danny-tf3fd]

It's actually my family's tradition to watch this movie every Christmas. In my opinion, it's the most underappreciated adaptation of A Christmas Carol ever. Followed closely by the Muppet version.

[@UrAverageJoe]

*Pulls down beard* Mrs Cratchit: AAH! It's Mr Scrooge! He's gone mad! Mr Cratchit: It's alright my dear, there's nothing to be frightened of! Scrooge: No, I haven't gone mad! And on Monday, when your salary is doubled- Mr Cratchit: DOUBLED?! He HAS gone mad! I couldn't stop laughing 😂

[@showbuzz2674]

that 1 minute tickles me to no end!

[@magicamadeye]

@@showbuzz2674 still more accurate to the book than most adaptations...i think this one and the patrick stewart ones are the ones who get the bob cratchit reaction right

[@magicamadeye]

yea the book literally says bob considers going outside, screaming for some orderlies to wrestle scrooge into a straight jacket and take him to the looney bin

[@megancathcart8685]

Merry Christmas to whoever is reading this. god bless you. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. I love this movie

[@barryrivadue9228]

I too was at Radio City when I saw this--the finale had the packed house practically on their feet. Pure joy to witness.

[@robbibubnj]

I had the very good fortune of, when I was 9 or 10 years old, being taken into NYC by my mom to Radio City Music Hall to see this film shown on that grand screen (when they used to show films at Radio City) the year it came out. It was magical to be there and to see this wonderful musical version. Even at 9 or 10 years old I appreciated this version so much. I still have the program from it somewhere and watch it every chance I get. :-)

[@foxteen8721]

I always feel like crying when Scrooge kisses Tiny Tim.

[@Porn05Mouth]

I always feel like crying through this whole sequence! 😭❤️🎄

[@binksm689]

I saw it with my English class in seventh grade!!! Such a fantastic story Dickens wrote that resonates decades and decades later!!! Amazing.

[@morbius109]

Albert Finney and Alistair Sim - my two absolute favorite renditions of Ebenezer Scrooge. Their portrayal of the cold-hearted Victorian usurer and the man redeemed of the heavy burden of his painful and sad past were given in equal measures of brilliance. The joy of their bubbly, high energy cheer and delight brings a smile to my face every time. Truly, Sim and Finney portrayed a man freed from the weight of his past and who reveled in the freedom the joy of his redemption brought.

[@chaburchak]

Those two and George C. Scott as well...I love Edward Woodward's Ghost of Christmas Present, the way he taunts Scrooge with his own words. "Are there no prisons? Are there no workhouses?" Great delivery by the Equalizer...

[@seamus1956]

I also like the 1999 made for television version starring Patrick Stewart. It takes its inspiration from the 1934 Alistair Sim version and is truer to the original Dickens novella than most. The ending was every bit as freeing and transformative as this one.

[@sadespain2339]

Your description of Scrooge brought tears to my eyes because that is something I hope that a friend of mine will have someday. Thank you for your description of hope and joy!

[@LordBummenbachsBalls]

Those two and Michale Caine are the best Scrooges. There are no doubts about that.

[@Alan.Bishop]

Albert Finney was also Mr. Warbucks in Annie with Aileen Quinn as the title character.

[@Dreamavere]

RIP Albert Finney, thank you very much for giving us an amazing and memorable Scrooge

[@Anthony-jc1ii]

Always loved this version best

[@robertolmstead1346]

RIP Mr. Finney With that we say, “Thank You Very, Very, Very, Much”

[@nickclark4599]

I think the reason that this succeeds is because Finney is one of the few to realise Scrooge has descended into misery because of life circumstances and bad choices not because he's a pantomime villain out to be nasty for the sake of it. He shows that well. In addition, the Bricusse score is superb and allows Finney to go to the darkest places of his character.We could, however, lose the hell scene - only included to make it a big enough part for Guinness to sign up

[@spudman5500]

Just love it, always feel like walking ( dancing) down the street singing this song

[@DBAWESOMESAUCE]

"DOUBLED!? He HAS gone mad!"

[@c.d.scalemodels9198]

There's something about the part where Tiny Tim thinks Santa(Scrooge) forgot to give him a present....that look on his face, you just can't help but feel for that poor child.....and you just know at the last second, Santa abruptly halts, turns around......and makes Tiny Tim sooooo over the moon with that carousel!!!!!!!! I love that scene so much......Tiny Tim must of had a feeling of happiness & well deserved too....probably my favorite scene of my many favorite scenes in that classic, wonderful film!!!!!!!!!

[@firefly7980]

I don’t understand how this film was poorly received?!! It’s a classic in my opinion. My Grandad loved it and he is no longer with us, I always think of him when I watch it and I tear up!

[@josephstewart2821]

I guess because a Christmas carol had always been a relatively dark spooky ghost story up until this version - it would be like if someone in the modern era did a musical of aliens or something, even if it had a catchy song like this it would take a long time for people to come around to the big change of tone from what they were used to.

[@VA_Nightshade]

This is my dad's favorite version. Also, this is still a dark film at the endo f the day. The happy go lucky music makes it more so.

[@reggiepadgett2085]

This version is underrated I saw it as a child watch it every Christmas eve, now my family watch it.

[@doyleperkins4916]

I was five when this came out, and the same age when I beheld its cinematic glory. If the whole world at that time had truly taken this film to heart, world peace would have ensued/been the result...and we would still be singing today!

[@spudman5500]

I was 9, I always wondered did we go to see it, it's brilliant..the song's the characters the performances from everyone the set's

[@Korellix125]

This version is my favorite for two reasons. The reprise of thank you very much was an excellent way to end the movie. The other part is the ghost of Christmas present. Every other one I have watched just guilt trips him during Christmas present. This one does that but also shows him how much he would actually enjoy it if he went. Great story telling of this classic.

[@alisterfolson]

Ikr? It's why I've decided to do a Christmas Present scene next Holloween at our house

[@OneWeirdDude]

I lost my idiot baby brother to something stupid four years ago (who almost made it to 30), and I look forward to the day I can meet him again, in the next life. I always enjoy this song, but I never can hear it without being reminded of him, even though he never mentioned it to me. (I first heard it on Lawrence Welk.) Even so, I expect we'll have the chance to sing it together, for 1000 Christmases, as the Prince rules with His peace.

[@No-jp5mu]

Just a Classic movie....it's not Christmas unless I get to watch this....such an underrated movie

[@zacharysiple783]

I saw this for the 1st time a few years ago and I loved the first part of the song, an I was bummed when it was done. I was filled with joy when this part came, and I actually sang it in the shower when the movie ended! This is one of the most joyous movies I have ever seen!
