The Reginald Owen version of "The Christmas Carol", has always been my favorite. Grew up watching it every Christmas season. How about you?

Alastair Sim's version for me, Kevin.

PPS: 2:10am Rebooting, cache clearing, defragging, and other crap worked. Or maybe it was a server hiccup.:dunno:

Edit: that's better.

I like the Reginald Owen version but the Alastair Sim version is tops for me.

I dearly love "A Christmas Carol" and am quite fond of most cinema and television versions, from Mr. Magoo and Albert Finney to Seymore Hicks and George C. Scott. I'll watch 'em all.

The great Lionel Barrymore was a magnificent actor who portrayed Scrooge many times on radio. I think a cinematic version starring LB would have been terrific.

The Fonz (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001857/) was a Scrooge in An American Christmas Carol (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0078764/)

The Fonz was not too bad. Captain Picard did the role justice as well.

But the Albert Finney version has always been my favorite even though its a musical.

Alastair Sim, when he threw the "pen" up in the air and just started laughing, a healed man.

Bill Murray in Scrooged even if the ending was a little sappy.

The Alastair Sim version for me.
When Marleys face appeared on Scrooges door knocker, I nearly crapped my drawers. Couldn't sleep a wink, and it was Christmas Eve. I was about 10.

Another vote for Alastair Sims for me.

Me for Alistair Sim as well.
