Product description

TNT's A Christmas Carol (DVD)

In one haunted evening, embittered old miser Ebenezer Scrooge, who has soured on the world and his fellowman, learns the true spirit of Christmas from three ghostly visitors. After moving visions of long-dead happiness, of past and present remorse and a fearful glimpse into the future, Scrooge receives the chance to change his life for the better on Christmas morning.Reprising his critically acclaimed stage role, Patrick Stewart, as Ebenezer Scrooge, heads an all-star cast, including Oscar winner Joel Grey (Cabaret) and Richard E. Grant (The Portrait of a Lady) in a spirited, special effects-filled delight.Based on Charles Dickens' classic story.

    I search in vain for the "ideal" Christmas Carol (1977 BBC Production with Michael Hordern comes closest, for my taste), but, in my opinion, this production does NOT deserve much of the criticism leveled at it. Sometimes the text is modernized without improvement. Clearly too much money was spent on Marley's funeral at the beginning. I personally hoped that the "modern" production would have better special effects (memory fades; perhaps they were impressive in 1999). The performances of young Scrooge and Belle (among other minor characters) are somewhat lack-luster, and the Bob Cratchit is too funereal. But I must defend this production for its fine qualities, not the least of which is a VERY studied portrayal by Patrick Stewart.

    Many "traditionalists" here criticize his decisions as an actor, but every choice he makes is perfectly motivated. One person was very upset that he did not anticipate his name on the tombstone until he actually saw it, but considering he does not even recognize his own room in which the body lies, this willful ignorance is not extraordinary. His fear of the body, as a neglected body, not as his own, is described in detail by Dickens in the book: "Oh cold, cold, rigid, dreadful Death, set up thine altar here." His sarcasm with Marley, the fact that he is still a curmudgeon after his awakening (just one that can laugh at himself) and his approach to just about every line (his quiet condescension as he says "I wish to be left alone") are clearly deliberate choices of one who knows the text VERY well. Traditional it is not, but it is believable and consistent, and the mark of a fine classical actor.

    Other positive qualities of this production include (for the purists) that more detail from the story is found here than in any other version (although the Jim Carey cartoon takes a close second). For example, the ghost of Christmas present takes him to see the many "Christmas lunatics", as in the story. Usually his trips to the sea and to the mines are cut as extraneous, but here they also serve to tear him away from Fred's party, the one place he would like to be, and the one place he damned the day before. Fred's party is also the best of any production I have seen, as is the portrayal of Fred himself. I find it intriguing that the Ghost of Christmas yet to Come has the hand of a woman (although the costume is a bit obviously built up), and the I find the graveyard scene to be truly disturbing. Also, Joel Gray plays a Ghost of Christmas past that is both congenial and creepy.

    It is beautifully filmed and will adequately "Spirit" up any house for Christmas, and you get more of the story than in any other production. Plus for the price you can't beat it. If you want a bit of Christmas spirit in combination with a bit of artistry, but don't want to spend alot of money, this will serve splendidly.

    Also, my non-existent ideal Christmas Carol would include the Fred, Fred's party and the graveyard scene from this one, but that's just me.

    This is my favourite version of A Christmas Carol. From the all star cast of some of Britain's greatest actors to the story itself, it really can't be bettered for me (well not so far at least).

    Personally my favourite version.
    It’s made for a 1999 tv so the screen dimensions need to be adjusted or the image is stretched across a wide screen.

    5.0 out of 5 stars The best Christmas Carol!
    Reviewed in the United States on 29 December 2024
    I own almost every version of this tale, and the Patrick Stewart version is the best. A close second is the old version with Alister Sim (sp?) and 3rd, Scrooge with Albert Finney.

    I don't know if blue-ray quality will be possible in the future. But for now, this DVD quality is quite better than the VHS one. Besides, I consider this the best adaptation of them all. Yes, above the 1984 George C. Scott adaptation.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Perché non si trova la versione in italiano, neanche tra l'usato?
    Reviewed in Italy on 18 December 2020
    Una delle versioni più belle mai fatte, ma non capisco come sia possibile che non viene venduto anche in lingua italiana. Fino a pochi anni fa veniva trasmesso su Canale 5 in italiano, ma non capisco la mancanza di una versione in italiano. Se mai venisse venduta consiglio chiunque di acquistarla, è veramente un film da vedere.
