No question, the Alistair Sim one. I grew up watching it, and that's the face I see when people say 'Scrooge'
Proud supporter of Plan 2525. Everything you think, do and say will be in the pill you took today.

The Will Ferrell/Ryan Reynolds musical take on it is surprisingly good.

I've only heard that once and it was forever ago. Need to revisit.
We grew up hearing the Laurence Olivier version every Christmas Eve. A family tradition. Loved the ghosts on the album cover. I still have the album somewhere around here.

The manuscript, in Dickens's handwriting, is in the Morgan Library here in the city. It goes on display occasionally, I've seen it once. The elder Morgan bought it when his kids were little. He used to read from it to his kids around Christmas time.

Always remember, Operation Valkyrie was an act of sedition.

Speaking of alternative versions... Anybody remember the Bill Murray spin on the story?
I love that one. Even has Bobcat in it.

If there was any justice in the world, they'd have an Alistair Sim month on Netflix.
