A Christmas Carol background

A Christmas Carol

A bitter old miser who rationalizes his uncaring nature learns real compassion when three spirits visit him on Christmas Eve.

Made-for-television version of the Charles Dickens classic. Ebenezer Scrooge is a hard-nosed, single-minded businessman in Victorian London. He has no friends, has disowned his only living relative--his nephew Fred Hollywell--and generally treats everyone he meets with extreme contempt. He despises Christmas, only cares about making money and only grudgingly gives his loyal clerk Bob Cratchit the day off. However on Christmas Eve, he is visited by the ghost of his long-dead partner Jacob Marley, who warns him to change his miserly ways. He is shown the true meaning and spirit of Christmas by three ghosts who show him his own past and present--and what the future holds for him if he doesn't improve his behavior.
