I don’t want a Christmas gift
That’s very
practical
Nor a
homemade present
Or
something musical
Not an
article for wearing
Nothing
thoughtful or twee
No items
for the garden
Or anything
scented fragrantly
And nothing
so expensive that
The value
is shocking
I just want
something shapely
In a
Christmas stocking
Reginald
Owen stars as miser Ebenezer Scrooge in this quality 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 him, 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 Ann Rutherford (Past), Lionel Braham (Present)
and D'Arcy Corrigan (Future)
The other key characters and portrayed by Leo G. Carroll (Marley), Lynne Carver (Bess), Gene Lockhart and Kathleen Lockhart (The Cratchit’s), Terry Kilburn (Tiny Tim), Forrester Harvey (Fezziwig), Barry MacKay (Fred) and Ira Stevens (Fan).
Twas the night before Christmas and all thru the abode
Came the
rancid smell like an un-emptied commode
It made
your eyes water to be perfectly crude
Wow this
baby needs to start eating solid food
Are you wearing stripy stockings?
It must be
that time of the year again
I know you
think they’re cute, but
Your legs
look like candy canes
Rudolph got an F in his exam
Which was a
mystery
But after
his paper was remarked
He went
down in History
Executive Jacob (Jake) Peterson (Tim Matheson) is sent to a small town to assess which of the workers in the local tractor factory, on which the town relies on as the chief source of employment, should be laid off when the planned downsizing begins.
However he gets side tracked when he falls in love with a local single
mom Emma Murphy (Melissa
Gilbert) which her daughter Noelle (Michelle Trachtenberg) encourages.
But is there any future in their relationship if he does what he was
sent to the town to do?
Twas the night before Christmas and all thru the Hotel
There were
creatures emitting a terrible smell
And the cause
of the awful pungent aroma
Was an
octogenarian party from Cromer
