A Christmas Carol Ratings & Reviews

  • Wendy KwasFebruary 19, 2025
    A true classic. My favorite version.
  • Charles LondonFebruary 15, 2025
    This one is the definitive adaptation of Dickens' "A Christmas Carol". Alastair Sim takes Ebenezer Scrooge from page to screen better than anyone to date. It became a favorite of Baby Boomers who grew up with it. Other generations should give it a try, not just the movie but the book as well.
