Patrick Stewart's Christmas Carol

This one took some getting used to for me. I found Patrick Stewart a bit forced in his converted state, and I thought Christmas Present was so glum with never a happy moment. But it grew on me. This "A Christmas Carol" production came out in 1999, and we've watched it every year since. I like Edward Petherbridge, who played Lord Peter Wimsey in the PBS Mystery series back in the 1980's. In this movie he plays one of the charity men who come to Scrooge for donations for the poor.
