Product Details

Product Description

Amazon.ca

In the same year that he directed a handsome version of The Scarlet Pimpernel for television, Clive Donner also made this worthy 1984 small-screen production of the Dickens tale. George C. Scott can't quite muster a decent English accent, but he does bring some new colors to this movie's interpretation of Scrooge, making the character less nasty for the sake of nastiness and more a product of a life of lovelessness. The supporting cast is first-rate, and the production is far more handsome than most TV fare. --Tom Keogh

Product Description

Christmas elicits nothing more than "Bah, humbug!" from Ebenezer Scrooge (Scott), a miser whose sole pursuit of financial success has left him a bitter and lonely old man. But a Christmas Eve visit from the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future ultimately teaches him to open his heart to the spirit of Christmas and to the joys of friends and family.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great remake of a classic Jan 18 2013
By Peter Warth
Format:Blu-ray|Amazon Verified Purchase
Probably one of the best recent versions of the Christmas classic. Too bad it was in 1.33:1 aspect ratio and not widescreen.

By Christine
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
I love this movie and have many of the versions. George C. Scott brings good, jovial sentiment to this all-time favorite Christmas movie. I bring it out and watch it every year. Shipping was excellent.

3.0 out of 5 stars A Christmas Remake
This is a fair film, but nothing when compared to "A Christmas Carol" starring Alister Sim. The actor just doesn't ... become the part. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best All Around Version of a Christmas Classic!
Some people are under the impression that this is an American production of A Christmas Carol while others (namely the 1951 Alastair Sim version) are British. Read more

2.0 out of 5 stars lower class adaption
I saw this video two weeks after reading the book. It came across as flat and lifeless compared to the book and the 1951 Alastar Sim version I have. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Nearly perfect in every aspect!
George C. Scott gives a superb and frighteningly convincing performance of the character that brought "humbug" to common usage. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Scroogey Enough, but Not Quite

5.0 out of 5 stars The best CAROL ever, with the best Scrooge ever
There's a reason that of all the stories woven around the Christmas season, and of all the tales Charles Dickens told, this one is still being retold over a century later. Read more
