...THE MOVIE WAS... A Christmas Carol.
Classics are always brilliant. And Charles Dickens 'A Christmas Carol' is no exception. I bet you've heard people saying "your such a scrooge" around Christmasl. I have certainly called people it! But that name actually comes froma story written way back in the victorian times...
Ebenezer Scrooge is a grumpy, selfish, greedy old man who lives in a big manision and runs his own business, left all for him after his happy business partner, Jacob Marley, dies.
On the christmas after his passing away, Scrooge has no signs of sadness. But instead is happy about the death, as it leavews him with all the money that they would share between them! But as night draws in, Scrooge finds himself in the presence of three christmas ghosts. The ghost of Christmas past, The ghost of christmas present, and The ghost of Christmas still to come.
The ghost of Christmas past forces Scrooge to see his unhappy childhood, and what Christmas was for him. Faced with this horrible truth, Scrooge is then passed on into the hands of Christmas present, who shows him his family, all having fun around an open fire, where they sneer at his name and make jokes about how miserable he is. And at last, the ghost of christmas still to come, where Scrooge is shown what will come of him if he carries on being a Scrooge.
Can the ghosts show scrooge that Christmas doesnt have to be such a bah humbug?
And can he change his future in time for christmas?
There are so many versions of this movie!!!
