WOW December 16, 2008 Gwendolyn C. Dix (georgia) This is my husbands favorite christman movie. We were blown away with the color version!! Great Job!
A Christmas Carol December 16, 2008 gatorman This is a great old time favorite and works well. I would suggest this to anyone.
Simply the best. December 16, 2008 Dennis W. Benedict (Somewhere in the realm of the Shadow Dragon) This is by far, in my opinion, the best version of this classic tale out of the dozens that are out there. I watch it every year. Definitely worth purchasing. Not sure why two people gave this show one star, but it definitely deserves every bit of five stars and even more. This is a must have christmas classic.
The best Christmas movie, ever. December 13, 2008 Linda K. Haynes (usa) This was a bonus package, so not only did I get "Scrooge" It came in 2 DVDs on Black & White, and one Color. I felt like I was seeing for the first time as I had never seen it in color before. But, also with the set, a real old movie by the title "A Christmas Carol" was included. I enjoyed watching it, however, the whole cast of "Scrooge" is second to none. Well worth (what little) money I was charged and fast shipping to boot. 5+STARS!
Not my favorite, but that doesn't mean it can't be yours December 12, 2008 D. COLLIER (Brownwood, TX United States) Actually, this is one of the finest films ever made. It is also probably the one version of A CHRISTMAS CAROL that is truest to the book.
My personal favorite is the 1970 musical version starring Albert Finney and Sir Alec Guinness. But Alastair Sim's SCROOGE is still worthy of the annual (or multi-annual) viewing. Not only does Sim turn in an excellent performance, but so does the entire cast. I especially enjoyed Hermione Baddeley in the role of Mrs. Cratchit. (I've enjoyed seeing her in many different shows including MARY POPPINS and LITTLE HOUSE ON THE PRAIRIE).
Also, this version of Dickens's "immortal classic" boasts more Christian themes than any of the others (including Albert Finney's). And I suppose that's what I like most about it. It constantly reminds us of whose birthday we celebrate at Christmas.
I think Charles Dickens would have greatly approved of this version. For what it's worth, I know I do.
