A Christmas Carol at the Chestnut Hill Library

A Christmas Carol (1951/86m)

Considered by many to be the definitive film version of Dickens’ Christmas Carol, A Christmas Carol is the closest adaption of the story and features a superb performance by Alistair Sim in the role of Scrooge. According to review Nick Cramp, Sim “invests Scrooge with dignity and wit as the old mudgeon’s cynicism is gradually stripped away” making “his joyous transformation…all the more moving.” This movie is guaranteed to get you in the real spirit of the holidays.
