Aftermath: "A Christmas Carol"

Movie:
"A Christmas Carol" (1984, TV); Clive Donner, dir; Roger O. Hirson, screenplay, based on the story by Charles Dickens.

Genre:
Traditional Christmas.

Starring:
George C. Scott as Ebenezer Scrooge.

Nodded off/Nyquil kicked in around:
Upon the exit of the Ghost of Christmas Past, before the Ghost of Christmas Present reveals the horrors under his robe – take that in anyway you wish.

Observation/Life Lesson:
The joy of this movie is not only that Scrooge is able to redeem himself, nor is it limited to the genuine creeps I still get whenever the Ghost of Jacob Marley becomes agitated. Moreover, this film shows us that those we should have loved accept our redemption, and love us in return.
