WUSSTEST DU SCHON:
- WissenswertesThis is possibly the only version of 'A Christmas Carol' in which Scrooge wears dress pants, dress shirt, vest, and smoking jacket instead of a nightshirt, slippers, and cap. Rumor has it George C. Scott openly railed at the idea of playing Scrooge in such a costume, especially in an English winter. In the book, Scrooge wears his shirt, pants, vest, dressing gown, and slippers. Scott's costume is very close to the book.
- PatzerThe string holding up the Spirit of Christmas Past's snuffer is briefly visible when she removes her hand from above it in the first scene with Scrooge. The snuffer shakes and wobbles perceptibly (as the string is slightly moved) throughout the scene.
- Zitate
Ebenezer Scrooge: [on Tiny Tim] Tell me, Spirit... Will he live?
Ghost of Christmas Present: I see a vacant place at this table. I see a crutch without an owner, carefully preserved. If these shadows remain unaltered by the future, the child will die.
Ebenezer Scrooge: No. Say he'll be spared.
Ghost of Christmas Present: If these shadows remain unaltered by the future, none other of my species will find him here. But if he is to die, then let him die and decrease the surplus population.
Ebenezer Scrooge: You use my own words against me?
Ghost of Christmas Present: Yes. So perhaps, in the future, you will hold your tongue until you have discovered what the surplus population is and where it is. It may well be that, in the sight of Heaven, you are more worthless and less fit to live than MILLIONS like this poor man's child.
- Alternative VersionenSome VHS and DVD releases (but not all) edited out Marley's voice calling Scrooge in the apparitional hearse, and then again just before appearing in the knocker.

If you haven't seen this version of the often filmed tale, put it on your list for next yuletide. 9/10
