Ronald Neame directed this entertaining musical version of "A Christmas Carol" based on the Charles Dickens novel that stars Albert Finney as cold-hearted miser Ebenezer Scrooge, who is forced by his deceased partner Jacob Marley and the ghosts of Christmas' past, present, and future to examine his life in an effort to redeem his soul before it is doomed for Eternity. Albert Finney is quite good here, both before and after his transformation, with a superb supporting cast and fine songs like "Father Christmas" & "Thank You Very Much". A big improvement on the overrated "Oliver", which this material is far more suited for musical purposes. A holiday favorite.
