There are two new versions of AChristmasCarol streaming today (and a third coming in 2 weeks)
Charles Dickens's A Christmas Carol might be one of the most frequently adapted and reinvented stories of all time. Centering on a greedy man who needs to learn the value of empathy and the meaning of Christmas, A Christmas Carol seems to remain relevant and open to reinvention generation after generation, presumably in part because Scrooge and his supporting cast are archetypes, not especially rooted in the London of Dickens's time.
Two movies are out today; aside from Spirited, which stars Ryan Reynolds and Will Ferrell, there's also A Christmas Karen, an independent film from FilmRise that casts a woman in the Scrooge role, which is actually fairly rare. A more straightforward, animated adaptation of the story is coming from Netflix in December, starring Luke Evans and Olivia Colman.
Are you going to check out any of these takes on A Christmas Carol? Sound off in the comments below-ho-ho.
