Dickens tale, so you can have fun picking and choosing

Everybody knows the story of Scrooge, but just
in case you've forgotten, here's a little reminder:
Ebeneezer Scrooge contentedly meanders through
his life as a cruel miser, until one fateful Christmas
Eve when he is visited by three ghosts. The spirits
show him how his behavior has degenerated over
the years as his heart has become colder. Using
events from Scrooge's idealistic past, dreary
present and dismal future, the apparitions try
their best to melt his steely soul.
Will Scrooge see the error of his ways and learn
the true meaning of Christmas? Watch the movie
during these Christmas holidays and find out.
