Overview:
The role of Ebenezer Scrooge invariably attracts quality actors, and Patrick Stewart proves himself worthy company for Alastair Sim, Albert Finney and George C Scott. This TV movie is not the most lavish or inventive adaptation of Charles Dickens's most-filmed tale, but Joel Grey, Desmond Barrit and Tim Potter acquit themselves well as the spirits whose midnight promptings transform Stewart from a penny-pinching curmudgeon into a joyous reveller. There's even a nod towards modernity with the casting of Richard E Grant and Saskia Reeves as the Cratchits. But it's Stewart who holds the piece together, with a performance considerably more subtle than the special effects.
