fanofBabs Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 I watched the other night, a film Ive never heard of " Another Christmas Carol" a new variation of the "Scrooge" story but so different so original and so anti war!!! Film was directed by my personal favorite director, JOSEPH L.MANKIWIECZ . ( excuse spelling) I was overwhelmed!!! Its the same basic story but involving wars of past present and future. Great cast!! Sterling Hayden, as the Scrooge Character, and STEVE LAWRENCE ( the singer) as ghost of Christmas past, Ben Gazzara( as Hayden;s nephew), Peter Sellers as ghost of Christmas future ( I dont know actor who played Christmas present but that was the most dramatic section of the film). Also Eva Marie Saint, Britt Elkland etc. I watched it again on Xfinity and said this is scary, eerie, very dark but a great variation of the Dickens classic Thank you TCM for introducing me to another wonderful film!!!!
