Christmas Carol just started on TCM
The old one with Reginald Owen and the Lockharts. It's just not Christmas until I see this great old movie.

12. That dude does look like Cheney, only with more hair.
I was thinking the same thing when I watched it the other night on AMC.

Ebenezer Cheney. That is so fitting. :)

7. Thank you for the heads up
I just finished watching my old VHS of It's A Wonderful Life. This is the perfect follow up for that.


Merry Fitzmas!

10. This one is good, but Alastair Sim will always be Scrooge to me.
He was amazing in the role.

13. Slam me if you want, but Michael Cain was pretty good too,
in The Muppet Christmas Carol. Didn't Mr. Magoo do one too? I loved that one too. Maybe I'm just a slob for this story.

I recorded it earlier this evening on my DVR, and have just started watching it! I must have seen it a million times, but I enjoy it each and every time. Particularly the Ghost of Christmas Present!
