THE BEST CHRISTMAS MOVIES EVER – THE CHRISTMAS CAROL (1949)

 

Vincent Price narrates the tale about miser Ebenezer Scrooge in this 1949 retelling of Charles Dickens' “A Christmas Carol”.

The classic tale in which he is taught the true meaning of Christmas by three Spirits who visit Scrooge (Taylor Holmes), revealing to him the truth about his own miserable existence, what opportunities he wasted in his youth, his current catalogue of cruelties, and the dire fate that awaits him if he does not change his ways.

Scrooge is faced with his own story of growing bitterness and meanness, and must decide what his own future will hold, death or redemption.

The Spirits are played by Nelson Leigh (Past), George James (Present) and Jack Nestle (Future)

 

The other key characters and portrayed by Earl Lee (Marley), Constance Cavendish (Martha), Patrick Whyte, Queenie Leonard, Mike Miller, Karen Kester and Jill St. John (The Cratchit’s), Robert Hyatt (Tiny Tim), and Robert Clarke (Fred).
