Witness the "Ghost" in the mirror when Scrooge is looking into it. For years it was rumored that there was a spirit in the mirror when Scrooge is looking into it. It's actually a crewman standing to close and gets caught in the reflection.

  • @MrCristoforoantonio Me either. Simms is so good, and this scene so marvelous, and PERFECT - that it's impossible to take your eyes off either actor. I love Christmas - and I love my Christmas Eve Church service. I love seeing family and friends. It's about "The Reason for the Season" - but it's not Christmas, without an annual viewing of this film. Period

  • I thought I was the only one that noticed that. Yes, I always pause the DVD just to have a look. My father had introduced me to this film years and years ago. It was then that i fell in love with it. He passed it on to me, and hopefully if I am ever blessed with children, I can pass it on to them.

    Christmas eve at midnight after a toast and "Scrooge"....perfect!

  • amazing clarity!

  • The color version looks like it was filmed on a mobile phone, notice how crisp the original b/w version is... much better.

  • I noticed it when I watched the restored version. I believe seeing this was not possible before.Many films are actually much clearer now digitized than they were even upon their initial release to the public. I'm sure no one noticed it back in '51. Its interesting, but irrelevant to the brilliance of this, the greatest version. It is in this version, thanks to the talents of Alister Simms, that Scrooge's transformation displays a most human dimension of regret for life moments missed.

  • Not visible enough to matter after all these years, still my fave of the 'Scrooge' movies.

  • I saw this and I had to rewind it because I thought I was seeing things...

  • I must have seen this movie about 100 times over the years, yet I never noticed that!

  • Just one of the ghosts...

  • Thank goodness the "spirit" of the movie was in keeping with the image - such as

    it was.  The film was too fine to be spoilt by this modern fascination with "bloops".

    I can live with it.
