Excellent adaptation of this classic story. This well known version has a great script that moves smoothly and even neatly fills in a few of the gaps in the Dickens story. Exceptional performances by both Alastair Sim as Scrooge, as well as a superb supporting cast, that gave great emotional depth to the changes in Scrooge. Excellent B&W filming that succeeded in enhancing the various emotional levels created in this film. Wonderful detail in both the sets and costuming. As a fan of “Christmas Carol” in all its various adaptations (including the cheesy ones), the holidays are not complete without viewing this particular one! Definitely one of my top two favorites! *****
