Christmas Carol ~ Jacob Marley

Back



Scrooge gets a ghostly visit from his deceased friend. Very creepy and memorable scene. And yes, that is Alec Guinness as Jacob Marley There are many movie versions of this story, everybody seems to have a favorite. This one is mine. It's the one I grew up on, I think I watched it on tv during every christmas season of my childhood. Christmas Carol is not the name of the movie of course but I'm trying to protect my videos from extinction by choosing a more generic title. If you like the clips then I strongly recommend finding the dvd somewhere before the holidays are through, because it's a damn good movie : )

I saw this in the movies when I was 6 years old. I was TERRIFIED-but also loved it. To this day, my family and I gather every Christmastime to watch this classic. Finney is fabulous-and so specific-in his portrayal. And the score is beautiful as well. Incidentally, I have the soundtrack-on VINYL from 1970!

Jacob Marley was my favorite character in the Dickens Christmas Carol

Alec Guinness was Obi-Wan Kenobi in the original trilogy of Star Wars.

The late great Alec Guinness at his best. Though I would question the singing! Although this was v good ,I still prefer the Alastair Sim version.
