Viewing Notes

Found another adaptation of this story that I haven’t seen (thx to our buddy Paul Corupe). Short and to the point, features Basil Rathbone as Scrooge. I would’ve liked more of the flashback sequences with the ghosts and more emotional investment. Scrooge is very unimpressed and not very alarmed by the ghosts, which is amusing. Then he’s a changed man. The end. Lol
