Silent Night and Scrooge

"Silent Night" is an old VHS, an animated Happy Face Video, that lasts 27 minutes. We have been unable to find it on DVD. From the back of the box:

This is a unique animated film about how the song "Silent Night" came to be written in Oberndorf, Germany, in the late 19th century. The characters are beautifully created, the colors come alive and the beloved melodies known to all of us are threaded throughout the story.


The Alastair Sim Scrooge is another film adaptation of the Dickens classic. Sim makes one of the best Scrooges ever. It's at youtube in 9 parts: part 1, part 2, part 3, part 4, part 5, part 6, part 7, part 8, part 9

Here's a short clip from near the end of the movie:
