Straight forward telling of the Dickens classic. George C Scott is excellent as Scrooge.

Where is the singing? Nope can't have it. Actually even as a non-musical it is not very well done.

A decent version of a classic story. Oddly, I still believe the best movie version of this is the 1938 Reginald Owen movie. It's still good.
