TFH presents Charles Dickens' THE CHRISTMAS CAROL with Vincent Price

[only257]

not as good as the 1951 version!

Anyone know if the one with Bernard Herrmann's score is on youtube, complete (not just the boy aria)?

[Richard40171]

This is terrible but I'm glad you posted it. It's a priceless trip down memory lane. 1949! Even before the Sim version, which seemed old when I was a child. It seems like this cast had 1 day rehearsals, or none at all. The ghost of X'mas Present was especially poor, but the entire cast looked like they were reading their lines without acting them. Scrooge's final laugh was ludicrous and the omission of the final scene where Scrooge pretends anger at Cratchit robs the piece of closure.

They knew how to drag out the credits in the beginning.
