A wealthy, uncaring man is haunted by Christmas spirits.
I was pretty surprised by how much less moving it is than the Muppet version. But while it doesn't have the emotional weight it needs, a lot of it is fun to watch, thanks mostly to Sim's awesome face.

NOBODY EVER BECAME SCROOGE ONCE ALISTAIR SIM PLAYED THE ROLE!
Simply the best film version of the Charles Dickenson holiday classic.
Il dramma bellico britannico mostra il mondo sia in pace che sull'orlo della dominazione nazista. Unite insieme per formare un film in stile documentario sia di cinegiornale che di recitazione. Questo primo del suo genere nei film di propaganda della seconda guerra mondiale, mostra la potenza dell'impero inglese e il suo desiderio di opporsi agli oppressori della moralità e del libero arbitrio. Cinema di propaganda rozzo ma efficace che dà il tono alle cose a venire. Con il suo rigido show more atteggiamento del labbro superiore che rende omaggio alle orgoglio delle nazioni e mostra la piaga nera del nazionalismo che si diffonde in tutta Europa, l'Inghilterra sarà motivata, pronta e disposta a vendicarsi. show less
