93 minute DVD starring Patrick Stewart as Scrooge.
An adaptation of Charles Dickens's classic novel finds Stewart (STAR TREK: The Next Generation, MOBY DICK) as the infamous miser Ebenezer Scrooge, a man haunted by apparitions from his past, present, and future on the eve of Christmas. The ghosts wish to show him the error of his wicked ways and introduce him to the wonders of charity and love. A TNT original movie filled with state-of-the-art special effects from the producers of the made-for-television films MERLIN and ALICE IN WONDERLAND.
On August 26, 2000, Patrick Stewart married Wendy Neuss, one of the executive producers of A CHRISTMAS CAROL. The two had met when Neuss worked on STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION.

Greatest of the Christmas Carol I bought the three remakes of the Christmas Carol. This one is best. Submitted by ellis.d.smith (Culver City, CA) Was This Review Helpful? YesNo 1 of 1 found this helpful.
Absolute Perfection! The English all star cast has certainly done Dickens proud. Brilliant screenplay with added personal bits made this one my all time favorite.

A very good interpretation. Patrick Stewart is well known for his shakespeare performances. And it is evident in this production that his understanding of the english novelist comes through. If you have not seen this production, it is worth your time. Submitted by sissie958 (North Carolina, USA) Was This Review Helpful? YesNo 1 of 1 found this helpful.
Wooden Christmas Carol This is a tired and uninspired production. Unfortunately Patrick Stewart's performance is very wooden and one feels he is reading his lines from cue cards. There are many better versions of "A Christmas Carol", including the one with George C. Scott, Albert Finney, or even The Muppets. Submitted by kplamp (Holly, MI, USA) Was This Review Helpful?
