Movie Reviews of A Christmas CarolMovie Review: One of the best Christmas Carols Summary: 5 Stars
This is my favorite old version of the Dickens' classic Christmas tale. The film captures the period well and has small quirky bits of humor too. Reginald Owen is a truly scroogey Scrooge and Leo G. Carroll as Marley's ghost is a highlight of the film. The dvd includes a few enjoyable extras including a copy of "Peace on Earth", a tale told by the small animals who are the world war's only survivors. It's a rarely shown anti-war cartoon, and a true seasonal treat. I'm glad I added this to my holiday collection.
Movie Review: This is the best version... Summary: 5 Stars
I think this is the best version of A Christmas Carol because it
contains a lot more joyful scenes after the transformation of Scrooge.
I also own the Alistair Sim's version, but when we want
to look at "A Christmas Carol" in our house, Reginald Owen's version
is the one that always gets the play. I think the balance between the dark
and the transformed side of Scrooge is superior in Owne's version...
Movie Review: Reginal Owen - A Christmas Carol Summary: 5 Stars
Simply my favorite telling of Dickens' classic tale, A Christmas Carol. The cast is stellar - Reginald Owen (my very favorite Scrooge), Gene Lockart (as Bob Crachit) along with his wife Kathleen (Mrs. Crachit) and a very young June Lockart (one of their daughters), and all make this timeless story wonderful! For anyone who loves this tale, I suggest Joseph L. Mankiewicz's superb 1938 version of A Christmas Carol. Let watching it become your holiday tradition as it is mine.
Movie Review: Glad I Got the Right Movie/Version Summary: 5 Stars
Since there are several different versions of this Christmas classic, I needed to figure out the one I watched as a child. I know it was black and white, and I compared the original release dates. I'm glad I got the right one because the others just don't compare to this version.
Younger children may be familiar with the story, as it's similiar to Walt Disney Mickey's Christmas Carol - A Little Golden Book.
Movie Review: FINALLY! The 1938 Version on DVD!! Summary: 5 Stars
For me... this version is THE "A Christmas Carol". This is the version played every year on "Family Classics".
I tried finding this locally to no avail. Finally thought to look at Amazon and got the VHS version... but it was not released on DVD.
Decided to check to see if it had been released now on DVD... and bought it as soon as I saw that it was! (just this month!!)
