“Scrooge”, released in the United States as “A Christmas Carol”, is a 1951 adaptation of the famous novel by Charles dickens, directed by Brian Desmond Hurst and starring Alastair Sim as Ebenezer Scrooge, an elderly miser and a misanthrope. On the Christmas Eve, Scrooge is first visited by the ghost of his deceased business partner who warns him that he will suffer a cruel fate in the afterlife if he doesn’t change his greedy ways, and tells him that he will be visited by three ghosts over the course of the night. First he is visited by the Ghost of Christmas Past, who takes him on a trip down memory lane. He shows him some happier times when Scrooge’s soul wasn’t as corrupted, and also shows him the moments when he terribly wronged people close to him. Scrooge at times breaks down and begs for forgiveness, but the ghost taunts him. Next he is visited by the Ghost of Christmas Present, who shows him how other people will be spending Christmas this year. He sees the family meal of his lowly worker Bob, and his cousin Freddy and his wife, both of whose invitations he turned down. Ultimately, he is visited by the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come, who reveals what the future is going to look like if he doesn’t change his ways. He sees his own death actually bringing joy to certain people, and he promises to mend his ways. On the Christmas morning, we see Scrooge in a festive, generous mood, throwing money all over the place, buying his worker a prized turkey and dining with his cousin. In the aftermath we find out that Scrooge has become a caring, generous man willing to help anyone in need.
