If anyone here has never seen it, be prepared to get a "so that's what that story was all about" feeling after you have.
It includes some vital tidbits left out of any other versions I have seen.
And Scrooge's "conversion" scene the next morning, as done by Alistair Sim, is simply one of the great scenes in all cinema.
Not kidding.
(And all from a movie with about a $1000 budget it would seem)

Enjoy!
