George C. Scott Christmas Review January 24, 2009 Raymond Hall The George C. Scott version is the best and we did not have a DVD copy.
nice try January 15, 2009 J.B. Barley (Berkeley Heights, NJ) 0 out of 3 found this review helpful
I bought this version of A Christmas Carol based upon the reviews I read here. Big mistake! George C. Scott was great as Patton, but he doesn't show the range of emotion that a character like Scrooge requires. His transformation comes late in the game, and it seems motivated mostly by fear of how others will remember him. I still much prefer the Alastair Sim version as the definitive version. There is no better Scrooge, no better Marley, and no better Cratchet. And it continues on down to Tiny Tim. Hands down the best cast and best screen adaptation. This version is better than some, but overall it just doesn't really cut it for me.
The best version, IMHO January 14, 2009 ATLBob (Georgia, USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Misery...bitterness...isolation...regret...redemption....rebirth and celebration...How can anyone NOT like George C. Scott as Scrooge in this holiday classic? There are many versions of this story in the marketplace; however, because of the great acting by the entire cast, this is my personal favorite.
My only wish is that this DVD had been reformated into HD.
The best version of all! January 14, 2009 Rachael Davee (Eugene, OR) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This edition of Achristmas Carol is beautifully done and keeps tighly with Dicken's original text. The scenes are quaint and George C. Scott is the most aweful and wonderful scrooge. The music is warm and traditional and I could watch this over and over and see more thoughtful detail.
The best Christmas movie ever. January 12, 2009 J. Morgan (Annapolis, Md.) I've had this movie for a long time on VHS tape. I recently purchased it on DVD. It is absolutely the best version of A Christmas Carol ever made. I highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys this Charles Dickens story.
