‘Scrooge’ is a 1935 British Christmas fantasy film directed by Henry Edwards, based on Charles Dickens' novella ‘A Christmas Carol’. The film stars Seymour Hicks as Ebenezer Scrooge, a miserly businessman who despises Christmas. On Christmas Eve, Scrooge is visited by the ghost of his former business partner, Jacob Marley, who warns him of his fate. Throughout the night, Scrooge is guided by the spirits of Christmas Past, Present, and Future, who show him the consequences of his greed and the possibility of redemption. This adaptation is notable for its atmospheric cinematography, which has been compared to German expressionist films, and for Hicks' compelling portrayal of Scrooge, a role he had previously played on stage and in a 1913 silent film version.

00:05:37THE END
00:05:38THE END
00:05:39Nothing? Oh, I see. You wish to be anonymous.
00:05:45I wish to be left alone, sir.
00:05:48Since you ask me what is my wish, that is my answer.
00:05:51I don't make many myself at Christmas.
00:05:53I can't afford to make a lot of idle people many.
00:05:55I hope to support the institutions we've just mentioned.
00:05:58They cost enough. People are badly off. They'd better go there.
00:06:02Many can't go there. Many would rather die.
00:06:04Well, if they'd rather die, they'd better do it.
00:06:06And decrease the surplus population.
00:06:13Besides, excuse me, sir. I don't know that.
00:06:15But you should know it.
00:06:16It's not my business, sir.
00:06:17A man's got enough to do in this world to mind his own business.
00:06:19Without interfering with a lot of other peoples, mine occupies me constantly.
00:06:23Good evening, sir.
00:06:31Allow me to express my regret, sir, if I have said anything.
00:06:34Good evening.
00:06:36Good evening.
00:06:3710.
00:06:42Exactly.
00:06:45I'm sorry.
00:06:47Good evening.
00:07:01May I inquire, Mr. Cratchit, what you're doing with that shovelful of coal?
00:07:13Why, I beg your pardon, sir, but the outer office is intensely cold, and my fire...
00:07:20Your fire?
00:07:22I should have said your fire, sir.
00:07:24Yes, sir.
00:07:25It shows symptoms of going out, and I thought I might venture to replenish it with a small quantity of coal.
00:07:31Yeah.
00:07:32Well, of course, you know, it's very evident to me, you know, Mr. Cratchit, that you and I left apart.
00:07:36Oh, I see no ill for it, sir.
00:07:38You don't pay for the coal, so you can afford to be reckless.
00:07:44Therefore, very evident to me, sir, you know, that my interest is not your interest, nor my welfare, your welfare.
00:07:52Get on with your work, sir.
00:07:55That'll keep you warm enough.
00:07:57I'm not cold.
00:07:59Why should you be?
00:07:59And I'm your senior.
00:08:03Why, a great many years, I fancy.
00:08:08And all about a small shovelful of coal.
00:08:11Well, then none of you are mumbling, you know, none of you are mumbling.
00:08:21You, you have a wife and family to support, I understand.
00:08:25Yes, sir.
00:08:26Yes, sir.
00:08:27How many children have you got?
00:08:28Around half a dozen, sir.
00:08:30Three boys and three girls.
00:08:31Can I afford a wife?
00:08:33Yes, sir.
00:08:34Eh?
00:08:35Eh, I mean, no, sir.
00:08:38Have I any children?
00:08:39I don't know, sir.
00:08:40Eh?
00:08:41No.
00:08:42No, sir.
00:08:43How much am I constrained to pay you a week for your services?
00:08:48Fifteen shillings, sir.
00:08:49Eh.
00:08:50Be to your interest, sir, to see that you're worth it.
00:08:52All right.
00:08:56Do you know if I need to take care of everything?
00:09:12All right.
00:09:13A merry Christmas to you uncle.
00:09:15And god save you.
00:09:17Ah!
00:09:18Humbug.
00:09:20A christmas a humbug?
00:09:21You can't mean then I'm sure.
00:09:23I do mean it sir.
00:09:24What right of you to be merry.
00:09:25What reason have you to be merry?
00:09:27You're poor enough.
00:09:29Come then.
00:09:30What right of you to be dismal?
00:09:31What reason of you to be morose.
00:09:33You're rich enough.
00:09:34Ah!
00:09:35Humbug.
00:09:36Oh don't be cross uncle.
00:09:37How can I help you cross uncle?
00:09:38How can I help you cross?
00:09:40Oh, don't be cross, uncle.
00:09:42How can I help being cross, sir, when I live in such a world of fools as it is?
00:09:46Merry Christmas.
00:09:48What's Christmas time for you, sir?
00:09:50Time for paying bills without money?
00:09:53Time for finding yourself a year older?
00:09:55No, no, no, not a penny of it, sir.
00:09:57If I had my way, sir, every fool who goes about saying Merry Christmas
00:10:01shall be boiled with his own pudding
00:10:03and buried with a stake of olive through his heart.
00:10:06He should. Uncle!
00:10:07Nephew, you keep Christmas your way.
00:10:09Let me keep it in mind.
00:10:11Keep it? But you don't keep it.
00:10:12Well, let me leave it around, then.
00:10:14Much good is it done here.
00:10:16Much good will it ever do here.
00:10:18It's the only time I know of in the long calendar of the year
00:10:21when men and women seem by one consent to open their shut hearts freely.
00:10:26And therefore, though it's never put a scrap of gold or silver in my pocket,
00:10:30I believe it has done me good and will do me good.
00:10:32And I say God bless it.
00:10:34Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah.
00:10:36Mr. Cratchit, if I hear another word from you, you'll keep your Christmas by losing your situation.
00:10:44Dear, dear, dear, dear. Quite a powerful speaker, sir.
00:10:48I wonder you don't go into Parliament.
00:10:49Don't be angry, Uncle. Come, dine with us tomorrow.
00:10:52I'll see you.
00:10:53But why? Why?
00:10:55Why did you get married?
00:10:58Because I fell in love.
00:10:59Because I fell in good evening.
00:11:02But you never came to see us before that happened.
00:11:04Why give that as a reason for not coming now?
00:11:06Good evening, sir.
00:11:07But I want nothing from you. I ask nothing of you.
00:11:09Well, you won't get it, sir. You won't be disappointed, will you?
00:11:11We've never had a call to which I've been party.
00:11:13So why not let us part bread?
00:11:15Good evening, sir.
00:11:16Well, I'm sorry with all my heart to mind as a relative.
00:11:19But I've made the trial in homage to Christmas.
00:11:22And I've eaten my Christmas humour to the last.
00:11:25So a merry Christmas, Uncle.
00:11:26Good evening, sir.
00:11:27And a happy new year.
00:11:28You're a noisy devil. That's what you are, sir.
00:11:31Merry Christmas, Bob Cratchit.
00:11:32And the same to you, sir. And many of them.
00:11:34And not forgetting your good lady, Mrs. Friend.
00:11:37Thank you, Cratchit.
00:11:38A merry Christmas to you. A merry Christmas.
00:11:46Good evening, sir.
00:11:48Hey King, Saan.
00:11:49Thank you, Sal.
00:11:51Good evening.
00:11:53Bono vs.
00:11:59Always ready and willing to quit your work, I notice.
00:12:26It's seven o'clock, sir.
00:12:28That clock's fast.
00:12:30By the way, I suppose you'll want all day off tomorrow, eh?
00:12:35Well, sir, if it's quite convenient.
00:12:38It isn't convenient. It isn't fair.
00:12:42If I were to stub half a crown for it, oh, you'd be mightily ill-used.
00:12:46I'd be bound, wouldn't you?
00:12:48Don't think I'm ill-used, do you, when I have to pay a whole day's wages?
00:12:53No work.
00:12:55It only happens once a year, sir.
00:12:57That's a pretty excuse for picking a man's pocket every 25th of December.
00:13:02Well, I suppose you've got to have it.
00:13:06Here, there's the key.
00:13:09You see, sir, that you're here only earlier, next morning.
00:13:17Good night, sir, and a merry Christmas.
00:13:20Bad.
00:13:21Humber.
00:13:22Good night.
00:13:23Good night.
00:13:24Good night.

00:13:47Good night.
00:13:48Good night.
00:13:49Good night.
00:13:50It's worth its way to go, and it weighs a bit like a day, too.
00:14:16Merry Christmas, sir.
00:14:20Merry Christmas to you, my boy.
00:14:49Thank you, sir.
00:14:50Thank you, sir.
00:14:51Thank you, sir.
00:14:53How's it going?
00:14:54Good evening.
00:14:55Good evening.
00:14:56Good evening.
00:14:57Good evening.
00:14:58Good evening.
00:14:59Good evening.
00:15:04Good evening.
00:15:05Give us a penny.
00:15:06Get out of this.
00:15:07Good evening.
00:15:08Good evening.
00:15:09Good evening.
00:15:10Good evening.
00:15:11Good evening.

00:15:13Good evening.
00:15:14Good evening.
00:15:16Good evening.
00:15:28Give us a penny!
00:15:30Get out of this!
00:15:58The plane? Do you call this plane?
00:16:00Yes!
00:16:01Well, it is!
00:16:21Hi! Hi!
00:16:26Don't stop that noise!
00:16:28My lord, will you make your speech now, or will you let the ladies and gentlemen continue to enjoy themselves?
00:16:41Call silence for the loyal toast.
00:16:44My lords, ladies and gentlemen,
00:16:56My lords, ladies and gentlemen,
00:16:58My lords, ladies and gentlemen,
00:17:00My lords, ladies and gentlemen,
00:17:10My lords, ladies and gentlemen,
00:17:12Her most gracious majesty,
00:17:14The Queen.
00:17:16The Queen.
00:17:18All of us, my lords, the Queen.
00:17:20All of us, please.
00:17:22One day, one laus, and the Queen.
00:17:24From here on over the Street,
00:17:28Cause they must be.
00:18:31What the devil are you doing?

00:25:03I made it, link by link.
00:25:07Would you know the weight and length of the coil you bear yourself?
00:25:13Speak words of comfort to me, Jacob Marley.
00:25:17Speak words of comfort.
00:25:19Comfort? I have none to give.
00:25:23I am here to warn you, to save you, if that be possible.
00:25:27To warn? To save me?
00:25:31From what?
00:25:33From such a fate as mine.
00:25:35To wander through the world and witness what I cannot share,
00:25:39but might have shared on earth and turned to happiness.
00:25:43But you were always a good man of business, Jacob. Business.
00:25:49Mankind should have been my business.
00:25:53Charity, forbearance, benevolence.
00:25:57All were my business, as they should be yours.
00:26:03Now heed me, for my time is short.
00:26:07You will be haunted by three spirits.
00:26:10Without their visits, you cannot hope to shun the path I tread.
00:26:14You shall behold the visions of a Christmas past,
00:26:18a Christmas present,
00:26:21and a Christmas yet to come.
00:26:24Expect the first, when the clock strikes midnight, tonight.
00:26:36Marley!
00:26:37Look to see me no more.
00:26:40Marley!
00:26:41Marley!
00:26:50Marley!

00:27:18Marley!
00:27:49And all's well, twelve o'clock, and all's well.
00:28:19I am the spirit of Christmas past.
00:28:28I am here to show you the things that have been.
00:28:34Look back beyond the gulf of vanished years.
00:28:38The money is due and must be paid.
00:28:45But, sir, that's impossible.
00:28:46Then I shall have no alternative but to take immediate steps to recover it.
00:28:50But, sir, you must see that if...
00:28:53That is the way I conduct my business.
00:28:55You don't mean sell us up?
00:29:00That is precisely what I do mean.
00:29:03But, sir, I couldn't work in the hospital.
00:29:07Mr. Scrooge, I beg of you.
00:29:09Good day.
00:29:12You can't do this.
00:29:13You can't be so unjust.
00:29:15Give us a little more time.
00:29:17A week.
00:29:17Please.
00:29:47Oh, Bill. I didn't hear you come in.
00:29:54So it is true.
00:29:57What do you mean?
00:29:59Well, they say that you're a man without pity, without remorse,
00:30:03who weighs everything in the scale of profit and loss.
00:30:06Bill!
00:30:07I heard. I couldn't help you.
00:30:10What? This is business.
00:30:12If I were to allow sentiment to enter this counting house,
00:30:15I should be in the bankruptcy court within a year.
00:30:18And as for that couple who've just gone out,
00:30:20well, set your mind impressed about them.
00:30:23Worthless, shiftless pair.
00:30:25Had my good money.
00:30:27Now I want to avoid paying it back.
00:30:29Your money.
00:30:31Your good money.
00:30:35They asked you for a little breathing space,
00:30:37a little time in which to pay.
00:30:39That's all.
00:30:40Enough of this, Bill.
00:30:41I am ready to make allowances for your feelings as a woman.
00:30:44But I must ask you to leave my business affairs alone.
00:30:47When you marry me, I shall insist.
00:30:53Have you taken leave of your senses?
00:30:55I've tried hard not to believe what they've said about you.
00:30:58I'd give you anything not to believe it now.
00:31:00And the evidence of my own eyes and ears, I must believe.
00:31:04You are not always so.
00:31:06But I can see now that all passion and one passion only engrosses you gain.
00:31:11What then?
00:31:12Even if it were so, I'm not changed towards you.
00:31:14You are changed.
00:31:15Changed in every way.
00:31:17You're not the man of the world.
00:31:19Our contract's an old one.
00:31:21Made when we were poor and content to be so.
00:31:25May you be happy.
00:31:26A love.
00:31:27In the life you've chosen.
00:31:28Father.
00:31:29Now look.
00:31:30And see the happiness you have missed.
00:31:40There we go.
00:31:53There we go dance today, dance today, dance today, dance today, go to the wall now.
00:32:20Oh, by the way, Belle, I saw an old friend of yours this afternoon.
00:32:45Oh, who was it?
00:32:47You guess.
00:32:48How can I?
00:32:50I don't know.
00:32:52It wasn't Mr. Scrooge.
00:32:54Mr. Scrooge, it was.
00:32:56I passed his office window, and as it was not shut up and there was a candle inside, I could
00:32:59scarcely help see him.
00:33:02His partner's on the point of death, I hear.
00:33:06There he sat, alone.
00:33:08Quite alone in the world, I do believe.
00:33:16Spirit, I cannot bear it.
00:33:18Don't want me no more.
00:33:20I told you these were the shadows of the things that have been, that they are what they are.
00:33:27Do not blame me.
00:33:29Take me back.
00:33:30It's one o'clock.
00:33:44I know it is.
00:33:45I know it is.
00:33:58Come in, and know me, better man.
00:34:08Come in, and know me, better man.
00:34:16Come in, and know me, better man.
00:34:21And know me, better man.
00:34:27I am the ghost of Christmas present.
00:34:33Look upon me.
00:34:38You have never seen the like of me before.
00:34:44Never?
00:34:46I've never walked forth with the younger members of my family.
00:34:51Meaning, I am very young.
00:34:54My elder brothers, born in those later years.
00:34:58I don't think I have.
00:35:01I'm afraid I have not.
00:35:04Have you many brothers, Spirit?
00:35:08More than 1800.
00:35:13A tremendous family to provide for.
00:35:17Spirit, conduct me where you will.
00:35:21Already I have been forth under compulsion and learned a lesson which is working now.
00:35:28If you have aught to teach me, let me profit by it.
00:35:31Touch my robe.
00:35:35Touch my robe.
00:35:38And you shall see how you are poor Clark, with his haughtry fifteen shillings a week, which you so grudgingly dole out to him, keeps Christmas.
00:35:49Touch my robe.
00:35:50Touch my robe.
00:35:52Touch my robe.
00:35:53Touch my robe.
00:35:55Touch my robe.
00:35:56Touch my robe.
00:36:04Touch my robe.
00:36:05Up, you tiny, Tim!
00:36:35A boat.
00:36:39That one.
00:36:42Thank you, Father.
00:36:44Mother, Mother, Mother!
00:36:46We've been outside the beakers, and we've spent some lovely goose cooking.
00:36:51Yes, and this sure is bothered.
00:36:54Yes, it's a lovely goose.
00:36:59Mother, Mother, Mother!
00:37:01We've been outside the beakers, and we've spent some lovely goose cooking.
00:37:04The lovely goose, the lovely goose, the lovely goose, the lovely goose.
00:37:07Oh, what has ever got your precious father, then?
00:37:09And your brother, Tiny Tim.
00:37:11And your sister, Martha, warned us late last Christmas by half an hour.
00:37:14Mother!
00:37:15Oh, bless your heart, my dear.
00:37:18Mother!
00:37:19Mother!
00:37:20How late you are!
00:37:22My sister!
00:37:24We had a deal upon it to finish up last night, and had to clear away this morning.
00:37:29Well, never mind, as long as you are. Come.
00:37:31Come and sit before the farm, my dear, and get it warm.
00:37:33No, no!
00:37:34Here's Martha!
00:37:35Quick, Martha, hide!
00:37:36Quick, hide!
00:37:37Quickie, quickie!
00:37:41Here we are!
00:37:42Martha!
00:37:43Martha!
00:37:44And where's our Martha?
00:37:46She's, um, not coming.
00:37:51Not coming?
00:37:55Not coming upon Christmas Day?
00:37:58Not coming after Christmas Day?
00:37:59No, no, no, no.
00:38:00Yeah, it's up.
00:38:01Yes, Martha.
00:38:02Here I am.
00:38:03Well, come on.
00:38:05Oh, come on!
00:38:06Oh, come on!
00:38:08Oh, come on!
00:38:09Oh, come on!
00:38:10Oh, come on!
00:38:11Oh, come on!
00:38:13That'll be the goose!
00:38:14Me!
00:38:16I'll take it!
00:38:17Oh, but you're cold. Come and sit down and warm a bit.
00:38:36And how did tiny Jim behave?
00:38:39As good as gold. And better.
00:38:41And if somehow he gets thoughtful, sitting by himself so much,
00:38:46and thinks the strangest things you ever heard.
00:38:50He told me coming home that he hoped that the people in the church saw him,
00:38:55because he was a cripple.
00:38:58And that it might be pleasant for them to remember, upon a Christmas day,
00:39:03who may blame beggars' walks and blindly see?
00:39:11But he's growing stronger.
00:39:17Yes, growing strong and hearty.
00:39:21I wish I could believe you, Bob.
00:39:24But I'm afraid.
00:39:28Hooray!
00:39:30Hooray!
00:39:31Hooray!
00:39:32Hooray!
00:39:33Hooray!
00:39:34Hooray!
00:39:35Hooray!
00:39:36Hooray!
00:39:38Hooray!
00:39:39Hooray!
00:39:40Hooray!
00:39:41Hooray!
00:39:42Hooray!
00:39:43Hooray!
00:39:44Hooray!
00:39:46For what we are about to receive, may the Lord make us truly thankful.
00:39:49Hooray!
00:39:51Oh, hoay!
00:39:52Hooray!
00:39:53I can already vouch for it.
00:39:55Hooray!
00:39:56And its flavor will, I know, surpass my utmost expectations.
00:40:00Yes!
00:40:02With the mashed potatoes and the apple sauce,
00:40:06it will, I am sure, present a delightful combination
00:40:10that we shall remember until our dying day.
00:40:12Yes!
00:40:17Delicious.
00:40:18Delicious.
00:40:20That's the best goose we ever had, Mother.
00:40:22Yes, it is.
00:40:23Oh, yes.
00:40:24Oh, I've eaten too much.
00:40:26And even now, we haven't eaten at all.
00:40:33You laugh.
00:40:35Laugh.
00:40:36I envy them.
00:40:42My dear, regarding the momentous question, pudding.
00:40:47Good old pudding!
00:40:49Good old pudding!
00:40:50You look pale, my love.
00:40:52And nervous.
00:40:53I am nervous, my dear.
00:40:55And anxious about that pudding.
00:40:57Pray, heaven, all will be well.
00:40:59I'll go and fetch it.
00:41:00Let me come and help, too, Mother.
00:41:02You shall, my dear.
00:41:03Allow me, pudding!
00:41:04Allow me, pudding!
00:41:05Allow me, pudding!
00:41:06Allow me, pudding!
00:41:07Allow me, pudding!
00:41:08Allow me, pudding!
00:41:10I have my pudding!
00:41:12I have my pudding!
00:41:14You know, I'm anxious about that pudding.
00:41:15You know, your mother's been gone a long time.
00:41:29Supposing the pudding has broken and turning it out.
00:41:31What?
00:41:32What?
00:41:33Or supposing that somebody has got over the back wall and stolen it.
00:41:37Mother!
00:41:38Mother!
00:41:39You're not too busy, honey!
00:41:40I'm not too busy, honey!
00:41:41I've got too busy.
00:41:42I'm not too busy.
00:41:43I've got too busy, honey!
00:41:45Let's see what happens.
00:41:46Why not?
00:41:47I can't help.
00:41:48I can't help.
00:41:49It's all the night!
00:41:50Put the candles on!
00:41:51I can't help.
00:41:52I can't help.
00:41:53Music.
00:41:54I can't help.
00:41:55Put the candles on!
00:41:56Yeah, beautiful, beautiful!
00:41:57How wonderful, honey!
00:41:58It's a candle!
00:41:59It's a beautiful, beautiful, buddy!
00:42:01Oh, how beautiful, buddy!
00:42:04Wonderful, buddy!
00:42:06Wonderful, buddy!
00:42:08Wonderful, buddy!
00:42:10A merry Christmas to it all, my dear!
00:42:12Merry Christmas to it all!
00:42:15God bless us, everyone.
00:42:18Spirit, tell me that Tiny Tim will live.
00:42:33I see a vacant seat in the poor chimney corner
00:42:37and a crutch without an owner, carefully preserved.
00:42:42If these shadows remain unaltered in the future,
00:42:45a child will die.
00:42:48Oh, tell me that he'll be spared.
00:42:51If he is like to die,
00:42:53had he not better do it
00:42:55and decrease the surplus population?
00:42:59You weren't.
00:43:02Man, if man you be in heart,
00:43:05not adamant,
00:43:07forbear that wicked cant
00:43:09until you have discovered what the surplus is
00:43:12and where it is.
00:43:14Will you decide what men shall live,
00:43:17when men shall die?
00:43:19It may be that in the sight of heaven
00:43:22you are more worthless
00:43:24and less fit to live
00:43:26than millions
00:43:28like this poor man's child.
00:43:33Toast!
00:43:34I give you Mr. Scrooge,
00:43:36the founder of the feast.
00:43:37The founder of the feast, indeed.
00:43:39I wish I had him here.
00:43:41I'd give him a piece of my mind to feast upon.
00:43:43I hope he'd have a good appetite for it.
00:43:45But, my dear, the children!
00:43:46Christmas Day!
00:43:47It should be Christmas Day, I'm sure,
00:43:49on which one drinks the health of such an odious,
00:43:51stingy, hard, unfeeling man as Mr. Scrooge.
00:43:54You know he is, Robert.
00:43:56Nobody knows he'd better than you do, poor fellow.
00:43:58My dear, Christmas Day!
00:44:00Well, I'll drink his health for your sake,
00:44:02and the day's, not his.
00:44:04He'll be very merry and very happy,
00:44:07I've no doubt.
00:44:09Here's Mr. Scrooge's health.
00:44:11Now, children, all together,
00:44:13Mr. Scrooge's health.
00:44:15Mr. Scrooge's health.
00:44:17Mr. Scrooge's health.
00:44:19Mr. Scrooge's health.
00:44:21Mr. Scrooge.
00:44:26And now, Tiny Tim will sing to us.
00:44:30Yes, I do, Steve.
00:44:31What shall I sing?
00:44:33Hark the herald angels.
00:44:34Yes, Hark the herald angels.
00:44:38Hark the herald angel sing
00:44:41Glory to the new-born King
00:44:46Peace on earth and mercy nigh
00:44:49Come now and see how others keep Christmas.
00:45:19Come now and see how others keep Christmas.
00:45:49Merry Christmas to you.
00:45:52And a Merry Christmas to you.
00:45:54Merry Christmas.
00:46:12And he said Christmas was a humbug.
00:46:30And he believed it, too.
00:46:31Well, more shame on him, Fred.
00:46:32Oh, he's a comical old fellow, and that's the truth.
00:46:35He isn't so pleasant as he might be.
00:46:36Well, his offences carry their own punishments, and I've nothing to say against him.
00:46:40But surely he's very rich.
00:46:41At least you've often told me so.
00:46:42Well, what of that, my dear?
00:46:44His wealth is of no use to him.
00:46:45He doesn't do any good with it.
00:46:46He can't make himself comfortable with it.
00:46:48He hasn't even the satisfaction of thinking that he's ever going to benefit us with it.
00:46:52Well, I've no patience with your Uncle Scrooge.
00:46:59Oh, I have.
00:47:00I'm sorry for him.
00:47:02And here, he's taken it into his head to dislike us, and he won't even come and dine with us.
00:47:09Well, what are you going to play at?
00:47:10With animals.
00:47:11Oh, good.
00:47:12I'll ask you one.
00:47:13What does the following represent?
00:47:15An animal.
00:47:16Rather, a disagreeable animal.
00:47:18A savage animal.
00:47:19An animal that grunts and growls and talks and lives in London.
00:47:23That walks the streets.
00:47:24Yes.
00:47:25That isn't even made ashore.
00:47:26No.
00:47:26Doesn't have a camaraderie.
00:47:27No.
00:47:27Isn't the whore?
00:47:28No.
00:47:28No.
00:47:28No.
00:47:29No.
00:47:29No.
00:47:29No.
00:47:29No.
00:47:29No.
00:47:30No.
00:47:30No.
00:47:31No.
00:47:31No.
00:47:32No.
00:47:32No.
00:47:33No.
00:47:34No.
00:47:34No.
00:47:35No.
00:47:36No.
00:47:37No.
00:47:38No.
00:47:39No.
00:47:40No.
00:47:41No.
00:48:11Ghost of the future, I fear you more than any specter I have seen.
00:48:32You are about to show me the shadows of the things that have not been,
00:48:37but will be in the time to come.
00:48:42And as I hope to live to be another man from what I was,
00:48:48I am prepared to bear you company.
00:49:07I don't know much about it either way. I only know he's dead.
00:49:11Where did he die?
00:49:12Last night, I believe.
00:49:13Why, what was the matter with him?
00:49:15I thought he'd never die.
00:49:17Heaven knows.
00:49:19What's he done with his money?
00:49:20Left it to his company, perhaps.
00:49:22He hasn't left it to me. That's all I know.
00:49:25How are you? Very well. How are you?
00:49:30So old Nick has got his own at last.
00:49:32I'm so cold, isn't it? Seasonable for Christmas time.
00:49:35Oh, yes. You're not a skater, I suppose.
00:49:37Oh, no, no. I've got something else to think about.
00:49:40I do not see myself in my accustomed place.
00:49:45Where am I?
00:49:48Why am I not there?
00:50:18I am.
00:50:27I am.
00:50:35I am.
00:50:40I am.
00:50:42I am.
00:50:46Let the charwoman alone to be the first.
00:51:15Let the laundress alone to be the second.
00:51:18And let the undertaker's man alone to be the third.
00:51:21Look here, old Joe. Here's a chance.
00:51:24If we haven't all three met here without meaning it.
00:51:30You couldn't have met in a bitter place.
00:51:33Come into the parlour.
00:51:36Come on.
00:51:45Don't stand there staring as if you were afraid, woman.
00:51:54Who's the worse for the loss of a few things like this?
00:51:57Not a dead man, I hope.
00:52:00Open this bundle, old Joe, and let me know the value of it.
00:52:04I ain't afraid to be the first, nor afraid for them to see it.
00:52:11Come on.
00:52:12There's your account.
00:52:38I wouldn't give another six words.
00:52:42Now mine, Joe.
00:52:54Eight shillings.
00:52:56I always give too much to ladies.
00:52:58It's a weakness of mine.
00:53:01And now unto my bundle, Joe.
00:53:12Bed curtains.
00:53:17Bed curtains.
00:53:19You don't mean to say you took them down rings and all with him lying there?
00:53:24Why not?
00:53:25You was born to make your fortune.
00:53:29And you will certainly do it.
00:53:31Here, don't drop the oil on the blankets.
00:53:33His blankets?
00:53:34Whose else's?
00:53:35He isn't likely to take cold without them, I dare say.
00:53:40I hope he didn't die of anything catching.
00:53:44Oh, don't you be afraid of that.
00:53:47You can look through that shirt until your eyes ache and you won't find a hole in it.
00:53:53It's the best he had.
00:53:55It'd have been wasted if it hadn't been for me.
00:53:58What do you call wasting of it?
00:54:00Putting it on him to be buried in, to be sure.
00:54:05I took it off him.
00:54:08Calico's justice for coming to the body.
00:54:12He couldn't have looked uglier than he did in that one.
00:54:17This is the end of it, you see.
00:54:33He frightened everyone away from him when he was alive.
00:54:37To profit us when he was dead.
00:54:41I see, I see.
00:54:44The case of this unhappy man might be my own.
00:54:49My life tends that way now.
00:54:56Merciful heavens!
00:54:58What is that?
00:55:03Is this the man they spoke of?
00:55:10Neglected.
00:55:13Robbed.
00:55:16Hated.
00:55:20Can you not show me some tenderness connected with death?
00:55:33There we go.
00:55:50He is so desperate.
00:55:54And he took a child and set him in the midst of them.
00:56:24The colour hurts my eyes. Makes me weak by candlelight. I wouldn't show weak eyes to your father when he comes home from work. Must be near his time.
00:56:47Past it, rather.
00:56:49I think he walks a little slower than he used these last few evenings, Mother.
00:56:54Yes. I've known him walk with...
00:56:58I've known him walk with Tiny Tim upon his shoulder. Very fast indeed.
00:57:03So am I, often. So am I.
00:57:06But he was very light to carry. And his father loved him so, it was no trouble. No trouble.
00:57:19Where's your father at the door?
00:57:26Well, my dear.
00:57:27Well, Father.
00:57:28Well.
00:57:29Ah.
00:57:34What?
00:57:35My dear, you have been quit.
00:57:37It'll be done long before Sunday.
00:57:39Sunday? You went today then, Robert?
00:57:42Yes, my dear.
00:57:44I've seen where our Tiny Tim is to rest.
00:57:47It'll done you good to see how green a place it is.
00:57:51Hmm.
00:57:56Oh.
00:57:57You'll see it often.
00:58:01I promised him that we would walk there for Sunday.
00:58:04My dear, you're a little, little, little, little, little.
00:58:11No.
00:58:12My dear, you're a little, little child.
00:58:14My dear, little child.
00:58:16Oh, my dear.
00:58:26Oh, my dear.
00:58:27But I hadn't told him that he had to be hei-
00:59:31My little child.
01:00:01Tiny Tim.
01:00:19Thy childish essence was from God.
01:00:26I met Mr. Scrooge's nephew today, and he said to me, I'm heartily sorry for you, Mr. Cratchit, and heartily sorry for your good wife.
01:00:43Though how he knew that, I don't know.
01:00:46Knew what, my dear?
01:00:47Why, that you were a good wife.
01:00:49Everybody knows that.
01:00:51Well observed, my boy.
01:00:52And he said, if there's any service that I can do for you, pray come to me.
01:01:04It almost seemed as though he had known our tiny Tim, and felt with us.
01:01:12And I'm sure we shall none of us forget him, nor this first parting there has been among us.
01:01:23Never, Father.
01:01:26And I know that when we recollect how patient and how mild he was, although he was but a little child,
01:01:35we shall not quarrel easily among ourselves, and forget poor tiny Tim in doing it.
01:01:43Now, Father, I'm very happy, very happy.
01:01:55Now, Spirit, tell me what man that was whom we saw lying dead.
01:02:13Before I draw nearer to the stone at which you point, tell me, are these the shadows of the things that will be?
01:02:43Or are they the shadows of the things that may be only?
01:02:51Ebeneezer Scrooge!
01:03:00Am I that man who lay upon the dead?
01:03:04No, Spirit, no.
01:03:07I'll not be the man I was.
01:03:10I'll not be the man I must have been but with his intercourse.
01:03:13Why show me this if it is all too late?
01:03:18Tell me I may sponge away the writing on this stone.
01:03:22I will honor Christmas in my heart and try to keep it all the year.
01:03:27I will live in the past, the present, and the future.
01:03:33The spirits of all three shall strive within me.
01:03:35I will not shut out the lessons that they feed.
01:03:39No, no.
01:03:41No, no!
01:04:11I will live in the past, the present, and the future.
01:04:21Oh, Jacob Marley.
01:04:24Evelyn Christmas time be praised for this.
01:04:28I thank you.
01:04:32On my knees, I thank you, Jacob.
01:04:35On my knees.
01:04:41Oh, they're not torn down.
01:04:45They're not torn down.
01:04:51Ah!
01:04:53The things that would have been, may have been as well.
01:04:57They will.
01:04:59They will.
01:05:01Yeah, they will.
01:05:04They will.
01:05:11Oh, Merry Christmas.
01:05:13God bless you.
01:05:15Oh, I don't know what to do.
01:05:17I'm as happy as a sad boy.
01:05:19I'm as merry as an angel.
01:05:21I'm as giddy as a drunken man.
01:05:23Oh, Merry Christmas to everyone.
01:05:25Happy New Year to all the world.
01:05:27Oh, wow.
01:05:29Ha, ha, ha.
01:05:31Oh, there again.
01:05:33Oh, Merry Christmas to everyone.
01:05:35Happy New Year to all the world.
01:05:37Oh, Merry Christmas.
01:05:39Oh, Merry Christmas.
01:05:41Oh, yes, yes.
01:05:42Yes, the short man, the girl, was he?
01:05:44Yes, and there's the door that old Marley's ghost came through.
01:05:49Yes, it's all right.
01:05:51It's all true.
01:05:52It all happened.
01:05:54Oh.
01:05:55Hooray, Hooray.
01:05:58Glorious! Glorious!
01:06:08Hey, boy!
01:06:10Hey!
01:06:11Merry Christmas!
01:06:13It is Christmas Day, isn't it?
01:06:15Why, of course!
01:06:17I knew I hadn't missed it.
01:06:19Oh, the spirits have done it all in one night.
01:06:23Hey, do you know the folder at the corner of the street...
01:06:27...next but one?
01:06:28I do hope I did.
01:06:30An intelligent boy. You're a remarkable boy.
01:06:33Do you know if they've sold the prize turkey that they had hanging there?
01:06:36It'll be hanging there now.
01:06:38Well, you go and buy it.
01:06:40Walker!
01:06:41No, no, no. I'm in earnest.
01:06:42You go and buy it and bring it back here...
01:06:44...and I'll tell you where to take it.
01:06:46And you come back with the man and I'll give you a shilling.
01:06:49You come back in less than five minutes and I'll give you half a crown.
01:06:52Hooray!
01:06:54Go on! Hurry up! Hurry up!
01:06:57I'm going to send it to my clerk, Bob Cratchit.
01:07:02He won't know where it comes from.
01:07:08It's twice the size of Tiny Tim.
01:07:12He's not dead, you know.
01:07:14He's not dead.
01:07:16Son, you're willing to touch my child if you don't know what it means.
01:07:17No, don't make it 14 days later.
01:07:20The town is knowing looking to be high.
01:07:22Come on!
01:07:24Listen to me.
01:07:26Hi, dear.
01:07:27Son, I here's a nice cross where he is.
01:07:30Men.
01:07:31Ready me have another cross where you need to feed this君.
01:07:33Never.
01:07:35To be honest, no, no, no.
01:07:37But, Хорошо, my�.
01:07:39I'm a good man.
01:07:40Don't be honest.
01:07:41If that, Depression, I can not believe you know...
01:07:43…is what he is saying!
01:07:44Let's go.
01:07:47Go.
01:08:01Go.
01:08:08Steady.
01:08:10Here. Take that.
01:08:15What is it? What is it?
01:08:17Don't, sir. You can't make anyone here.
01:08:19Oh, that won't do.
01:08:21I've got to have that turkey.
01:08:24Wait a minute. Wait a minute.
01:08:28You go get me my overcoat and hat.
01:08:33I shan't be long.
01:08:37Then go to the box room.
01:08:40And get me out of my distance.
01:08:43Come on.
01:08:44Come on.
01:08:45Come on.
01:08:46Come on.
01:08:47Come on.
01:08:48Come on.
01:08:49Come on.
01:08:50Come on.
01:08:51Come on.
01:08:52Come on.
01:08:53Come on.
01:08:54Come on.
01:08:55Come on.
01:08:56Come on.
01:08:57Come on.
01:08:58Come on.
01:08:59Come on.
01:09:00Come on.
01:09:01Come on.
01:09:02Come on.
01:09:03Come on.
01:09:08Come on.
01:09:09Come on.
01:09:10Let me live over the shop.
01:09:11Yes, sir.
01:09:12Merry Christmas. Have you sold that prized turkey of yours yet? The big one, I mean. Now!
01:09:35What is it? What's to do?
01:09:38I want that big turkey of yours. Bring it round to my place at once. My friend will show you the way.
01:09:51Hello, Marley. Merry Christmas.
01:10:04Ah, that's nice.
01:10:08A merry Christmas.
01:10:10Oh!
01:10:12Oh!
01:10:13Oh!
01:10:15Oh!
01:10:16Oh!
01:10:28Hey!
01:10:30Hey!
01:10:31Hi! Mister!
01:10:37Hey!
01:10:43Mister!
01:10:47Hi!
01:10:51You can't carry that to the cratchits.
01:10:54You'll have to have a cab.
01:10:56There you are, my boy. There's the address. There's the money.
01:10:59Yes. And there's the money for you.
01:11:02Very kind of you to have brought it round.
01:11:07Ah, Merry Christmas, my dear.
01:11:09Thank you, sir. The same to you.
01:11:14Ah, good day, gentlemen.
01:11:16Merry Christmas to you. I hope you succeeded yesterday.
01:11:19Mister Scrooge.
01:11:20Yes, that's my name.
01:11:22I'm afraid it's not a very pleasant one for you.
01:11:24But will you allow me to ask your pardon?
01:11:26And would you be good enough to put me down?
01:11:31Oh, bless my soul.
01:11:32My dear, Mister Scrooge. Are you serious?
01:11:34Around a hundred.
01:11:35Yes, a lot of farthingness.
01:11:36Not a farthingness.
01:11:37I'm afraid there are many back payments included in it.
01:11:40My dear, Mister Scrooge.
01:11:41You come round and see me.
01:11:42You will come round.
01:11:43We will.
01:11:44We will.
01:11:48Bless you, gentlemen.
01:11:49Bless you.
01:11:50Who's that won't come and dine with you?
01:11:53Uncle Scrooge.
01:11:54Oh.
01:11:55Oh.
01:11:56Still, what's the consequence?
01:11:57He won't lose much of a dinner.
01:11:58Oh.
01:11:59Is he?
01:12:00Well, I think he'll lose a very good dinner.
01:12:02Yeah.
01:12:03What?
01:12:23Well, it's true.
01:12:28Is your master in, my dear?
01:12:32Yes, sir.
01:12:33Can I see him, my love?
01:12:35He's in the dining room, sir.
01:12:37I'll show you in.
01:12:38He knows me.
01:12:39He knows me.
01:12:40You sit there.
01:12:46Thank you so much, Mister Bell.
01:12:50Now, now.
01:12:57Fred.
01:12:58Bless my soul, who's this?
01:13:01It is I, your Uncle Scrooge.
01:13:05I've come to dinner.
01:13:08Will you let me in, Fred?
01:13:10Why, it's Uncle Scrooge.
01:13:12It can't be.
01:13:13Will I?
01:13:15A merry Christmas to you, Uncle.
01:13:18Come in.
01:13:19Come in and join us.
01:13:25Welcome, Uncle.
01:13:26And a merry Christmas.
01:13:28Thank you, my dear.
01:13:30A merry Christmas to you all.
01:13:32A merry Christmas.
01:13:34A merry Christmas.
01:13:36It is you, my dear.
01:13:53You're late for the office, Bob.
01:13:54It's nearly nine o'clock.
01:14:13You promised Mr. Scrooge you'll be early of the night.
01:14:20It's nearly 9 o'clock.
01:14:21You promised Mr. Scrooge you'll be earlier than usual this morning.
01:14:24So I did. So I did.
01:14:34Good-bye, Mother dear.
01:14:36Good-bye, my darling. Good-bye, my darling.
01:14:38Good-bye, my darling.
01:14:50Good-bye.
01:15:20What do you mean by coming here at this time of day?
01:15:27I'm very sorry, sir.
01:15:30I am behind my time.
01:15:32I think you are, sir.
01:15:34I think you are.
01:15:36It's only once a year, sir.
01:15:38It shan't be repeated.
01:15:40I was making rather merry yesterday, sir.
01:15:42So I tell you what it is, my fine fellow.
01:15:44I'm not going to stand it any longer.
01:15:46And therefore, therefore...
01:15:48I'm going to raise your salary.
01:15:50Sir, you must be joking.
01:15:52Never more serious in all midnight, Bob.
01:15:54I'm going to raise your salary.
01:15:56And as for dining things,
01:15:58I'll be a second father to you.
01:16:00Oh, God dang it.
01:16:02No more work today, Bob.
01:16:04No more work today, Bob.
01:16:06Make haste to your battery, Bob.
01:16:08If you want to give it a day, Bob,
01:16:10then you'll be a second father to you.
01:16:12Oh, God dang it.
01:16:14A merry Christmas, Bob.
01:16:16A merry Christmas, my good fellow,
01:16:18than I have given you for many a year.
01:16:20Go on, now.
01:16:22Go on.
01:16:24Merry Christmas to all the world.
01:16:26Happy New Year to everyone.
01:16:28God bless us all.
01:16:30God bless us everyone.
01:16:32God bless us everyone.
01:16:34God bless us everyone.
01:16:36God bless us everyone.
01:16:38God blesses all.
01:16:41God blesses everyone.
01:17:08God blesses everyone.
