A Christmas Carol 1935 ★★★ (CC) Christmas/Fantasy [Colorized]

Reel Videos

A Christmas Carol is a 1935 British Christmas fantasy film directed by Henry Edwards and starring Seymour Hicks, Donald Calthrop and Robert Cochran. It was the first sound film of feature length to adapt the Charles Dickens novella A Christmas Carol, and it was the second cinematic adaptation of the story to use sound, following a now lost 1928 short subject adaptation of the story. Hicks had previously played the role of Scrooge on the stage regularly, starting in 1901, and in a 1913 British silent film version. The 1913 film, retitled Old Scrooge, was reissued in 1929 as a "sound film" by the low-budget Weiss Bros. studio, with a synchronized musical score added.   Critical reception to Scrooge has been generally positive over the years. Praise has focused on the film's atmosphere, which has been compared to works of German expressionism, and on the performance of Hicks in the title role. Some reviews have criticized the film for its technical limitations and for heavily abbreviating Scrooge's backstory.   Plot: Ebenezer Scrooge (Seymour Hicks) is a curmudgeonly businessman who hates the Christmas season because it interferes with making money. His meek employee, Bob Cratchit (Donald Calthrop), dutifully serves Scrooge despite his mistreatment because Bob needs to provide for his family. On the night of Christmas Eve, Scrooge is visited by a number of visions, including the Spirit of Christmas Present (Oscar Asche), which shows him things he cannot normally see, changing the miser's attitude forever.   Soundtracks:  Hark! the Herald Angels Sing  Written by Charles Wesley and Felix Mendelssohn  Heard behind the opening credits, sung later by Philip Frost and sung in the church at the end.   The First Noel Traditional  Heard as background in the opening scene.   Good King Wenceslas Traditional  Sung by the carollers.   We Three Kings Traditional  Heard when Scrooge is sitting in the pub.   God Save the Queen  Music by unknown composer  Lyrics by Henry Carey  Sung at the banquet.   Here we go gathering nuts in May Traditional  Sung by the children dancing around the Christmas tree.

00:02:44May I inquire, Mr. Cratchit, what you're doing with that shovelful of coal?

00:03:05Why, I beg your pardon, sir, but the outer office is intensely cold, and my fire.

00:03:12Your fire?

00:03:14I should have said your fire, sir.

00:03:16Yes, sir.

00:03:17It shows symptoms of going out, and I thought I might venture to replenish it with a small quantity of coal.

00:03:23Yes.

00:03:24Well, of course, you know, it's very evident to me, you know, Mr. Cratchit, that you and I left apart.

00:03:28Oh, I see no help for it, sir.

00:03:30You don't pay for the coal, so you can afford to be reckless.

00:03:35Therefore, very evident to me, sir, you know, that my interest is not your interest.

00:03:41Nor my welfare, your welfare.

00:03:44Get on with your work, sir.

00:03:46That'll keep you warm enough.

00:03:48I'm not cold.

00:03:50Why should you be?

00:03:52When I am your senior, by a great many years, I fancy.

00:03:58And all about a small shovelful of coal.

00:04:02Well, none of you are mumbling, you know, none of you are mumbling.

00:04:13You... you have a wife and family to support, I understand.

00:04:17Yes, sir.

00:04:18Yes, sir.

00:04:19How many children have you got?

00:04:20Around half a dozen, sir.

00:04:22Three boys and three girls.

00:04:23That, that, that.

00:04:24Can I afford a wife?

00:04:25Yes, sir.

00:04:26Eh?

00:04:27Eh... I mean, no, sir.

00:04:30Have I any children?

00:04:31I don't know, sir.

00:04:32Eh?

00:04:33No... no, sir.

00:04:36How much am I constrained to pay you a week for your services?

00:04:40Fifteen shillings, sir.

00:04:41Eh.

00:04:42Be to your interest, sir, to see that you're worth it.

00:04:45...

00:04:47Oh, my God, please.

00:04:49Oh, no, sir.

00:04:50OK, P.

00:04:52OK, laundry room on you, and..."

00:04:55Then...

00:04:56Well, sir, you ought to stop.

00:04:59There's no justice to the worst of truth from your love.

00:05:00Here's no justiceitteust!

00:05:02You ought to say раб and care of the world, but you didn't talk to yourself.

00:05:04That, sir, John, I've said it yourself, but I have the defeat...

00:05:06Mr. SG.

00:05:09You're welcome.

00:05:11That's fair.

00:05:12These are fairs.

00:05:13A Merry Christmas to you, Uncle.

00:05:15And God save you.

00:05:16Bah!

00:05:17Humboldt.

00:05:18Christmas a humboldt?

00:05:19You can't mean then, I'm sure.

00:05:20I do mean it, sir.

00:05:21What right have you to be merry?

00:05:22What reason have you to be merry?

00:05:23You're poor enough.

00:05:24Come, then.

00:05:25What right have you to be dismal?

00:05:26What reason have you to be morose?

00:05:28You're rich enough.

00:05:29Bah!

00:05:30Humboldt.

00:05:31Oh, don't be cross, Uncle.

00:05:32How can I help you, sir,

00:05:33when I live in such a world of fools as it is?

00:05:35A Merry Christmas.

00:05:38What's Christmas time for you, sir?

00:05:40Time for paying bills without money?

00:05:42Time for finding yourself a year older?

00:05:44No, no, no, not a penny of it, sir.

00:05:46If I add my way, sir,

00:05:48every fool who goes about saying Merry Christmas

00:05:50shall be boiled with his own pudding

00:05:52and buried with a stake of olive to his heart.

00:05:54He should.

00:05:55Uncle!

00:05:56Nephew, you keep Christmas your way.

00:05:58Let me keep it in mine.

00:05:59Keep it?

00:06:00But you don't keep it in mine.

00:06:01You should.

00:06:02Uncle!

00:06:03Nephew, you keep Christmas your way.

00:06:05Let me keep it in mine.

00:06:06Keep it?

00:06:07Well, let me leave it around, then.

00:06:09Much good is it done here.

00:06:11Much good will it ever do here.

00:06:13It's the only time I know of

00:06:14in the long calendar of the year

00:06:16when men and women seem by one consent

00:06:18to open their shut hearts freely.

00:06:21And therefore,

00:06:22though it's never put a scrap of gold or silver

00:06:24in my bucket,

00:06:25I believe it has done me good

00:06:26and will do me good.

00:06:27And I say God bless it.

00:06:29Hear, hear.

00:06:30Hear, hear.

00:06:31Mr. Cratchit,

00:06:34if I hear another word from you,

00:06:36you'll keep your Christmas by losing your situation.

00:06:39Dear, dear, dear, dear.

00:06:41Quite a powerful speaker, sir.

00:06:43No wonder you don't go into Parliament.

00:06:45Don't be angry, Uncle.

00:06:46Come.

00:06:47Dine with us tomorrow.

00:06:48I'll see you.

00:06:49But why?

00:06:50Why?

00:06:51Why did you get married?

00:06:53Because I fell in love.

00:06:54Because I fell in good evening.

00:06:57But you never came to see us before that happened.

00:06:59Why give that as a reason for not coming now?

00:07:01Good evening, sir.

00:07:02But I want nothing from you.

00:07:03I ask nothing of you.

00:07:04Well, you won't get it,

00:07:05so you won't be disappointed, will you?

00:07:06We've never had a quarrel to which I've been party.

00:07:08So why not let us part bread?

00:07:10Good evening, sir.

00:07:11Well, I'm sorry with awful heart to find this irrelevant.

00:07:14But I've made the trial as homage to Christmas.

00:07:17And I've eaten my Christmas humor to the last.

00:07:20So a Merry Christmas, Uncle.

00:07:21Good evening, sir.

00:07:22And a Happy New Year.

00:07:23You're a noisy devil.

00:07:24That's what you are, sir.

00:07:25Merry Christmas, Bob Gretchen.

00:07:26And the same to you, sir.

00:07:27And many of them.

00:07:28And not forgetting your good lady, Mrs. Fred.

00:07:29Thank you, Gretchen.

00:07:30A Merry Christmas, me home.

00:07:31A Merry Christmas.

00:07:32Thank you, Gretchen.

00:07:33A Merry Christmas, me home.

00:07:34A Merry Christmas.

00:08:02A Merry Christmas, me home.

00:08:04A Merry Christmas.

00:08:17Always ready and willing to quit your work, I notice.

00:08:21It's seven o'clock, sir.

00:08:23That clock's fast.

00:08:25By the way, I suppose you'll want all day off tomorrow, eh?

00:08:30Well, sir, if it's quite convenient.

00:08:33It isn't convenient.

00:08:35It isn't fair.

00:08:37If I were to stop off account for it,

00:08:39oh, you'd be mighty legal.

00:08:41You can't be bound, wouldn't you?

00:08:43Don't think I'm ill used, do you,

00:08:45when I have to pay a whole day's wages?

00:08:48No work.

00:08:50It only happens once a year, sir.

00:08:52That's a pretty excuse for picking a man's pocket

00:08:55every 25th of December.

00:08:57Well, I...

00:08:59I suppose you've got to have it.

00:09:01Here.

00:09:02Where's the key?

00:09:04You see, sir, that you're here all the earlier.

00:09:06Next morning.

00:09:12Good night, sir.

00:09:14And a merry Christmas.

00:09:15Bah!

00:09:16Humbug.

00:09:29Buh!

00:09:30Buh-uh!

00:09:32Duh!

00:09:34Buh-uh-uh!

00:09:35C-Buh-uh!

00:09:38Whoa!

00:09:39Buh-uh!

00:09:40Buh-uh!

00:09:41Merry Christmas, sir.

00:10:11Merry Christmas to you, my boy.

00:10:39Thank you, sir.

00:10:40Thank you, sir.

00:10:41Thank you, sir.

00:10:42Oh!

00:10:44How'd you go?

00:10:45Good evening.

00:10:46Good evening.

00:10:47Good evening.

00:10:48Good evening.

00:11:16Get out of this.

00:11:17Okay.

00:11:18Okay.

00:11:19Give us the penny.

00:11:20Get out of this.

00:11:21Okay.

00:11:48Clean?

00:11:49You call this clean?

00:11:50Yeah.

00:11:51Well, it's this.

00:12:11Frank.

00:12:12Frank.

00:12:13Don't stop that noise.

00:12:22My lord, will you make your speech now, or will you let the ladies and gentlemen continue to enjoy them?

00:12:31Call silence for the loyal toast.

00:12:34My lords, ladies and gentlemen, pray silence for the Right Honorable, the Lord Mayor of London.

00:12:51My lord.

00:12:52My lords, ladies and gentlemen, her most gracious majesty, the Queen.

00:13:09Hey!

00:13:11Oh!

00:13:13Yay!

00:13:15Bye!

00:13:16Way!

00:13:18Open!

00:13:19Oh, stay the queen.

00:13:25With all the glorious, happy and glorious,

00:13:35but you may know the land, come and save the king.

00:13:49Free!

00:13:52Free!

00:14:05What the devil are you doing?

00:14:20Frightening people out of their wits.

00:14:26What the devil are you doing?

00:14:30Frightening people out of their wits.

00:17:55THE END

00:17:57All right.

00:19:27Look well, Ebenezer Scrooge.

00:19:49For only you can see me.

00:19:52What do you want with me?

00:19:55Much.

00:19:56Who are you?

00:19:59In life, I was your partner, Jacob Marley.

00:20:04In life?

00:20:05Why do you trouble me?

00:20:11It is required of everyone that the spirit within him should walk abroad among his fellow men.

00:20:17And if that spirit goes not forth in life, it is condemned to do so after death.

00:20:23My spirit never walked beyond the narrow limits of our money-changing home.

00:20:31So I cannot rest.

00:20:34I cannot stay.

00:20:36I cannot linger anywhere.

00:20:39You are fittered.

00:20:46Why?

00:20:48I wear the chain I forged in life.

00:20:51I made it, link by link.

00:20:58Would you know the weight and length of the coil you bear yourself?

00:21:03Speak words of comfort to me, Jacob Marley.

00:21:07Speak words of comfort.

00:21:10Comfort?

00:21:10I have none to give.

00:21:13I am here to warn you, to save you, if that be possible.

00:21:18To warn?

00:21:20To save me?

00:21:23From what?

00:21:24From such a fate as mine.

00:21:26To wander through the world and witness what I cannot share,

00:21:30but might have shared on earth and turned to happiness.

00:21:33But you were always a good man of business, Jacob.

00:21:39Mankind would have been my business.

00:21:44Charity, forbearance, benevolence, all were my business,

00:21:49as they should be yours.

00:21:54Now heed me, for my time is short.

00:21:58You will be haunted by three spirits.

00:22:01Without their visits, you cannot hope to shun the path I tread.

00:22:05You shall behold the visions of a Christmas past,

00:22:09a Christmas present and a Christmas yet to come.

00:22:16Expect the first when the clock strikes midnight tonight.

00:22:26Marley!

00:22:27Look to see me no more.

00:22:31Marley!

00:22:32Marley!

00:22:40Marley!

00:22:41Marley!

00:22:42Marley!

00:22:43Marley!

00:22:44Marley!

00:22:45Marley!

00:22:46Marley!

00:22:47Marley!

00:22:48Marley!

00:22:49Marley!

00:22:50Marley!

00:22:51Marley!

00:22:52Marley!

00:22:53Marley!

00:22:54Marley!

00:22:55Marley!

00:22:56Marley!

00:22:57Marley!

00:22:58Marley!

00:22:59Marley!

00:23:00Marley!

00:23:01Marley!

00:23:02Marley!

00:23:03Marley!

00:23:04Marley!

00:23:05Marley!

00:23:06Marley!

00:23:07Marley!

00:23:08Marley!

00:23:09Marley!

00:23:40Twelve o'clock and all is well, twelve o'clock and all is well.

00:24:10I am the spirit of Christmas past.

00:24:24I am here to show you the things that have been.

00:24:30Look back beyond the gulf of vanished years.

00:24:34The money is due and must be paid.

00:24:41But, sir, that's impossible.

00:24:42Then I shall have no alternative for to take immediate steps to recover it.

00:24:47But, sir, you must see that if...

00:24:49That is the way I conduct my business.

00:24:53You don't mean... sell us up?

00:24:56That is precisely what I do mean.

00:24:59But, sir, I couldn't work in the hospital.

00:25:03Mr. Scrooge, I beg on you.

00:25:05Good day.

00:25:08You can't do this.

00:25:10You can't be so unjust.

00:25:11Give us a little more time.

00:25:13A week.

00:25:14Please.

00:25:15Please.

00:25:15THE END

00:25:45Oh, Bill. I didn't hear you come in.

00:25:54So it is.

00:25:55So? What do you mean?

00:25:57Well, they say that you're a man without pity, without remorse,

00:26:01who weighs everything in the scale of profit and loss.

00:26:04Bill!

00:26:04I heard. I couldn't help you.

00:26:07What is his business?

00:26:09If I were to allow sentiment to enter this counting house,

00:26:12I should be in the bankruptcy court within a year.

00:26:14Well, and as for that couple who've just gone out,

00:26:16well, set your mind at rest about them.

00:26:20Worthless, shiftless pair.

00:26:22I've had my good money.

00:26:24Now I want to avoid paying it back.

00:26:26Your money.

00:26:29Your good money.

00:26:32They asked you for a little breathing space,

00:26:34a little time in which to pay.

00:26:36That's all.

00:26:37Enough of this, Bill.

00:26:37I am ready to make allowances for your feelings as a woman.

00:26:41But I must ask you to leave my business affairs alone.

00:26:44When you marry me,

00:26:45I shall insist.

00:26:50You take leave of your senses.

00:26:51I've tried hard not to believe what they've said about you.

00:26:55I'd give anything not to believe it now.

00:26:57The evidence of my own eyes and ears.

00:27:00I must believe it.

00:27:01You are not always so.

00:27:03But I can see now that one passion and one passion only engrosses you.

00:27:08Gain.

00:27:08But then, even if it were so,

00:27:10I'm not changed towards you.

00:27:11You are changed.

00:27:13Changed in every way.

00:27:15You're not the man.

00:27:16Our contract's an old one.

00:27:19Made when we were poor and content to be so.

00:27:23May you be happy,

00:27:25alone,

00:27:26in the life you've chosen.

00:27:29Mother.

00:27:41now look

00:27:45and see the happiness

00:27:48you have missed.

00:28:11Oh, by the way, Belle, I saw an old friend of yours this afternoon.

00:28:41Oh, who was it?

00:28:43You guess.

00:28:45How can I? I don't know.

00:28:48It wasn't Mr. Scrooge.

00:28:50Mr. Scrooge, it was.

00:28:52I passed his office window, and as it was not shut up and there was a candle inside, I could fiercely help see him.

00:28:58His partner's on the point of death, I hear.

00:29:02And there he sat, alone.

00:29:05Quite alone in the world, I do believe.

00:29:11Spirit, I cannot bear it. Haunt me no more.

00:29:16I told you these were the shadows of the things that have been.

00:29:21That they are what they are. Do not blame me.

00:29:25Take me back.

00:29:27It's one o'clock. I know it is.

00:29:43It's a champagne.

00:29:45I cannot bear it.

00:29:46It is a paddle-on-dip on the ice jellyfish.

00:29:47You should adapt it.

00:29:49It is a paddle random while it's coming.

00:29:51This is what we've learned from such acapital wie

00:30:08Come in, and know me, better man.

00:30:24I am the ghost of Christmas present.

00:30:30Look upon me.

00:30:31You have never seen the like of me before.

00:30:41Never?

00:30:43Have never walked forth with a younger member of my family.

00:30:48Meaning, I am very young.

00:30:51My elder brothers, born in those later years.

00:30:55I don't think I have.

00:30:58I'm afraid I have not.

00:31:01Have you many brothers, Spirit?

00:31:05More than 1800.

00:31:10A tremendous family to provide for.

00:31:14Spirit, conduct me where you will.

00:31:18Already I have been forth under compulsion and learned a lesson which is working now.

00:31:24If you have aught to teach me, let me profit by it.

00:31:31Touch my robe.

00:31:32Touch my robe.

00:31:34And you shall see how you are poor Clark, with his haughtry fifteen shillings a week,

00:31:41which you so grudgingly dole out to him, keeps Christmas.

00:31:46Touch my robe.

00:31:49Out in here with you.

00:31:50My robe.

00:32:05Out in here, you tiny, Tim!

00:32:06Up till you get tiny, Tim.

00:32:36And move!

00:32:40Get one.

00:32:44Thank you, pal.

00:32:49Mother, mother, mother.

00:32:51We've been outside the beakers and we've met a lovely goose cooking.

00:32:54Yes, and we're surely powered.

00:32:56Yes, lovely goose.

00:32:58What has ever got your precious father then?

00:33:02I'm hungry.

00:33:03Oh, what has ever got your precious father, then?

00:33:06And your brother, Tiny Tim.

00:33:08And your sister Martha warned us late last Christmas by half an hour.

00:33:11Mother!

00:33:12Oh, bless your heart, my dear.

00:33:15Oh, bless you, Martha.

00:33:17Oh, bless you.

00:33:18May Christmas.

00:33:19Why, Peter.

00:33:20May Christmas.

00:33:21No, no.

00:33:22We had a deal upon it to finish up last night

00:33:24and had to clear away this morning.

00:33:26Well, never mind, as long as you are. Come.

00:33:28Come and sit before the fire, my dear, and get it warm.

00:33:30No, no. Here's Martha.

00:33:32Quick, Martha, hide! Quick, hide! Quickie, quickie!

00:33:38Here we are.

00:33:39Martha!

00:33:41Ah!

00:33:42And where's our Martha?

00:33:44She's, um, not coming.

00:33:48Not coming?

00:33:52Not coming upon Christmas Day?

00:33:56Yes, Father dear, here I am.

00:33:59Oh, come on!

00:34:02Ha!

00:34:18Ha!

00:34:19Ha!

00:34:20Ha!

00:34:21Ha!

00:34:23Ha!

00:34:24Oh, I must sit down and warm a bit.

00:34:34And how did Tiny Tim behave?

00:34:37As good as gold and better.

00:34:40Somehow he gets thoughtful sitting by himself so much

00:34:44and thinks the strangest things you ever heard.

00:34:48He told me coming home that he hoped that the people in the church saw him

00:34:53because he was a cripple

00:34:55and that it might look pleasant for them to remember

00:34:58upon a Christmas day.

00:35:01Who may blame beggars walk and blindly have seen?

00:35:12But he's growing stronger.

00:35:14Yes.

00:35:16Growing strong and hearty.

00:35:18I wish I could believe you, Bob.

00:35:20But I'm afraid.

00:35:25Hooray!

00:35:35You never was, gentlemen.

00:35:36Yes.

00:35:37You never will be, gentlemen.

00:35:39Never!

00:35:41Pardon your misery.

00:35:43For what we are about to receive, may the Lord make us truly thankful.

00:35:46Yes!

00:35:47Hoo!

00:35:48Hoo!

00:35:49Hoo!

00:35:50Hoo!

00:35:51It's tenderly I can already bounce off.

00:35:52Yes!

00:35:54And its flavor will, I know, surpass my utmost expectations.

00:35:57Yes!

00:35:59With the mashed potato.

00:36:01Hoo!

00:36:02And the apple sauce.

00:36:03Hoo!

00:36:04It will, I am sure, present a delightful combination

00:36:07that we shall remember until our dying day.

00:36:09Yes!

00:36:10Hoo!

00:36:14Delicious.

00:36:15Delicious.

00:36:17That's the best goose we ever had, Mother.

00:36:19Yes, indeed.

00:36:20Oh, yes.

00:36:21Oh, I've eaten too much.

00:36:23And even now, we haven't eaten at all.

00:36:30You laugh, laugh.

00:36:33I envy them.

00:36:34I envy them.

00:36:43Spirit, tell me the tiny Tim will live.

00:36:50I see a vacant seat in the poor chimney corner,

00:36:54and a crutch without an owner, carefully preserved.

00:36:57If these shadows remain unaltered in the future,

00:37:01a child will die.

00:37:04Oh, tell me that he'll be spared.

00:37:07If he is like to die, had he not better do it,

00:37:12and decrease the surplus population?

00:37:16You will come now.

00:37:20I give you a toast.

00:37:22I give you Mrs. Cruz, the founder of the feast.

00:37:25The founder of the feast, indeed.

00:37:26I wish I had him here.

00:37:28I'd give him a piece of my mind to feast upon.

00:37:31I hope he'd have a good appetite for it.

00:37:32But, my dear, the children.

00:37:34Christmas Day.

00:37:35It should be Christmas Day, I'm sure,

00:37:37on which one drinks the health of such an odious,

00:37:39stingy, hard, unfeeling man as Mr. Scrooge.

00:37:42You know he is, Robert.

00:37:44Nobody knows he'd better than you do, poor fellow.

00:37:46My dear, Christmas Day.

00:37:48Well, I'll drink his health for your sake,

00:37:50and the day's, not his.

00:37:52He'll be very merry and very happy, I've no doubt.

00:37:57Here's Mr. Scrooge's health.

00:38:00Now, children, all together, Mr. Scrooge's health.

00:38:03Mr. Scrooge's health.

00:38:05Mr. Scrooge's health.

00:38:06Mr. Scrooge's health.

00:38:07Mr. Scrooge's health.

00:38:08Mr. Scrooge's health.

00:38:09Mr. Scrooge's health.

00:38:10Mr. Scrooge's health.

00:38:11Mr. Scrooge's health.

00:38:12Mr. Scrooge's health.

00:38:14And now, tiny Tim will sing to us.

00:38:17Yes, yes, I do.

00:38:19What shall I sing?

00:38:20A hark the herald angels.

00:38:22Yes, a hark the herald angels.

00:38:23Hark the herald angels sing glory to the newborn king.

00:38:33Peace on earth and mercy nigh o'er.

00:38:42Come now and see how others keep Christmas.

00:38:53Day to the new king, day to the new king.

00:39:01Day to the new king, Αバ team under O' Salad.

00:39:11Dithyrne, day to the new king.

00:39:14Day to the new king, day to the new king.

00:39:19Bye.

00:39:20Ha, ha, ha, ha.

00:39:22Ha, ha, ha.

00:39:24Ghost of the future, I fear you more than any specter I have seen.

00:39:52You are about to show me the shadows of the things that have not been, but will be, in the time to come.

00:40:02And as I hope to live to be another man from what I was, I am prepared to bear you company.

00:40:22I don't know much about it either way. I only know he's dead.

00:40:31When did he die?

00:40:32Last night, I believe.

00:40:33Why, what was the matter with him?

00:40:35I thought he'd never die.

00:40:37Heaven knows.

00:40:39What's he done with his money?

00:40:41Left it to his company, perhaps.

00:40:43He hasn't left it to me.

00:40:44That's all I know.

00:40:45How are you?

00:40:46Very well. How are you?

00:40:47So old Nick has got his own at last.

00:40:48Yes, I'm told.

00:40:49Cold, isn't it?

00:40:50Seasonable for Christmas time.

00:40:51Oh, yes.

00:40:52You're not a skater, I suppose.

00:40:53Oh, no, no.

00:40:54I've got something else to think about.

00:40:56I do not see myself in my accustomed place.

00:41:06Where am I?

00:41:08Why am I not there?

00:41:23Don't stand there staring as if you were afraid.

00:41:25Woman.

00:41:26Who's the worse for the loss of a few things like this?

00:41:29Not a dead man, I suppose.

00:41:32Open this bundle, old Joe, and let me know the value of it.

00:41:36I ain't afraid to be the first, nor afraid for them to see it.

00:41:55Here's your coat.

00:41:56I wouldn't give another six for its...

00:41:57Now mine, Joe.

00:42:02Ha!

00:42:03Eight shillings.

00:42:04I always give too much to ladies.

00:42:05It's a weakness, I don't give too much to ladies.

00:42:07It's a weakness of mine.

00:42:08Heh, heh, heh, heh.

00:42:09And now unto my bundle.

00:42:10I don't give another six for its...

00:42:11Here's your coat.

00:42:12I wouldn't give another six for its...

00:42:13Now mine, Joe.

00:42:14Now mine, Joe.

00:42:15Ha!

00:42:16Eight shillings.

00:42:17I always give too much to ladies.

00:42:18It's a weakness of mine.

00:42:19Heh, heh, heh, heh.

00:42:20And now unto my bundle, Joe.

00:42:27Big curtain.

00:42:28Ha!

00:42:29Ha!

00:42:30Eight shillings.

00:42:31I always give too much to ladies.

00:42:32It's a weakness of mine.

00:42:33Heh, heh, heh, heh.

00:42:35And now unto my bundle, Joe.

00:42:48Big curtain.

00:42:49Ha!

00:42:50Ha, ha, ha, ha.

00:42:51Bed curtains.

00:42:52You don't mean to say you took them down, rings and all, with him lying there?

00:42:57Why not?

00:42:58You was born to make your fortune.

00:43:01Heh, heh.

00:43:02And you will certainly do it.

00:43:03Here.

00:43:04Don't drop the oil on the blankets.

00:43:06His blankets.

00:43:07Who's Elton?

00:43:08He's likely to take cold without them, I dare say.

00:43:13Ha, ha, ha.

00:43:14Hope he didn't die of anything catching.

00:43:16Oh, don't you be afraid of that.

00:43:18Ma, you can look through that shirt until your eyes ache and you won't find a hole in it.

00:43:25It's the best he had.

00:43:27It'd have been wasted if it hadn't been for me.

00:43:31What do you call wasting of it?

00:43:33Putting it on him to be buried in, to be sure.

00:43:38I took it off him.

00:43:40Ha, ha, ha, ha.

00:43:41Calico's justice for coming to the body.

00:43:44Ha, ha, ha.

00:43:45He couldn't have looked uglier than he did in that one.

00:43:48Ha, ha, ha.

00:43:49Ha, ha, ha.

00:43:50Ha, ha, ha.

00:43:51Ha, ha, ha.

00:43:52Ha, ha, ha.

00:43:53Ha, ha, ha.

00:43:55Ha, ha, ha.

00:43:56Ha, ha, ha, ha!

00:43:57Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.

00:43:59Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!

00:44:02This is the end of it, you see.

00:44:06He frightened everyone away from him when he was alive, to plot his ass when he was dead.

00:44:13I see, I see.

00:44:17The case of this unhappy man might be my own.

00:44:21My life tends that way now.

00:44:28Merciful heavens, what is that?

00:44:38Is this the man they spoke of?

00:44:41Neglected.

00:44:45Robbed.

00:44:48Hated.

00:44:51Can you not show me some tenderness connected with death?

00:45:11No.

00:45:12No.

00:45:13No.

00:45:14No.

00:45:15No.

00:45:16No.

00:45:17No.

00:45:18No.

00:45:19No.

00:45:20No.

00:45:21No.

00:45:22No.

00:45:23No.

00:45:24No.

00:45:25No.

00:45:26No.

00:45:27No.

00:45:29No.

00:45:32No.

00:45:33No.

00:45:34No.

00:45:35No.

00:46:06My little child.

00:46:36Tiny Tim, thy childish essence was from God.

00:47:01I met Mr. Scrooge's nephew today, and he said to me, I'm heartily sorry for you, Mr. Cratchit,

00:47:18and heartily sorry for your good wife.

00:47:22So how he knew that, I don't know.

00:47:24Knew what, my dear?

00:47:25Why, that you were a good wife?

00:47:27Everybody knows that.

00:47:29Well, observe, my boy.

00:47:33And he said, if there's any service that I can do for you, pray come to me.

00:47:42It almost seemed as though he had known our tiny Tim and felt with us.

00:47:50And I'm sure we shall none of us forget him, nor this first parting there has been among

00:48:01us.

00:48:02Never, Father.

00:48:03And I know that when we recollect how patient and how mild he was, although he was but a

00:48:12little child, we shall not quarrel easily among ourselves and forget poor tiny Tim in doing

00:48:21it.

00:48:21Now, Father, tell me what man that was whom we saw lying dead.

00:48:44For I draw nearer to the stone at which you point.

00:49:14Tell me, are these the shadows of the things that will be, or are they the shadows of the

00:49:23things that may be only?

00:49:29Ebeneezer Scrooge!

00:49:38Am I to that man who lay upon the bed?

00:49:41No, Spirit, no.

00:49:42I'll not be the man I was.

00:49:43I'll not be the man I must have been but for this intercourse.

00:49:46Why show me this if it is all too late?

00:49:48Tell me I may sponge away the writing on this stone.

00:49:49I will honor Christmas in my heart and try to keep it all the year.

00:49:52I will live in the past, the present, and the future.

00:49:53The spirits of all three shall strive within me.

00:49:59I will not shut out the lessons that they did.

00:50:01No!

00:50:02No!

00:50:03No!

00:50:04No!

00:50:05No!

00:50:06No!

00:50:07No!

00:50:08No!

00:50:09No!

00:50:10No!

00:50:11No!

00:50:12No!

00:50:13No!

00:50:14No!

00:50:15No!

00:50:16Oh, no!

00:50:17No!

00:50:18No!

00:50:19No!

00:50:20No, no!

00:50:21No!

00:50:22No!

00:50:23No, no!

00:50:24No, no!

00:50:25No, no, no!

00:50:26I will live.

00:50:56In the past, the present, and the future, oh, Jacob Marley,

00:51:02heaven and Christmas time be praised for this.

00:51:07I thank you.

00:51:10On my knees, I thank you, Jacob.

00:51:13On my knees.

00:51:20They're not torn down.

00:51:23They're not torn down.

00:51:26There are things that would have been, may be this hell.

00:51:35They will.

00:51:37They will.

00:51:40They will.

00:51:42They will.

00:51:43Merry Christmas.

00:51:56God bless you.

00:51:59Oh, I don't know what to do.

00:52:01I'm as happy as a sad boy.

00:52:04I'm as merry as an angel.

00:52:05I'm as giddy as a drunken man.

00:52:09Oh, merry Christmas to everyone.

00:52:12Happy New Year to all the world.

00:52:14Oh, hooray.

00:52:17Oh, yes, yes.

00:52:19Yes, the source from the little girl was in.

00:52:22Yes, and there's a door that old Marley's ghost came through.

00:52:27Yes, it's all right.

00:52:29It's all true.

00:52:30It all happened.

00:52:31Oh, hooray, hooray.

00:52:44Oh, glorious, glorious.

00:52:48Hey, boy.

00:52:50Hey.

00:52:51Merry Christmas.

00:52:52It is Christmas Day, isn't it?

00:52:54Why, of course.

00:52:55Oh, I knew I hadn't missed it.

00:52:58Oh, the spirits have done it all in one night.

00:53:02Hey.

00:53:03Do you know the folder at the corner of the street next but one?

00:53:06I shall hope I did.

00:53:08An intelligent boy.

00:53:09You're a mockable boy.

00:53:11Do you know if they've sold the price turkey that they had hanging there?

00:53:14And it'll be hanging there now.

00:53:17Well, you go and buy it.

00:53:18Walker.

00:53:19No, no, no.

00:53:20I'm in earnest.

00:53:21You go and buy it and bring it back here.

00:53:22And I'll tell you where to take it.

00:53:25And you come back with the man and I'll give you a shilling.

00:53:27You come back in less than five minutes and I'll give you half a crown.

00:53:31Hooray!

00:53:37Hi!

00:53:40Hi!

00:53:41Pizza!

00:53:46Hey!

00:53:51Pizza!

00:53:52You can't carry that to the cratchit.

00:54:03You'll have to have a cab.

00:54:04There you are, my boy.

00:54:06There's the address.

00:54:06There's the money.

00:54:08And there's the money to you.

00:54:11Very kind of you to have brought it round.

00:54:16Ah, Merry Christmas, my dear.

00:54:18Thank you, sir.

00:54:18The same to you.

00:54:19That won't come and dine with you.

00:54:23Uncle Scroo.

00:54:24Oh!

00:54:26Still, what's the cousin?

00:54:27He won't lose much of a dinner.

00:54:30See?

00:54:31Well, I think he'll lose a very good dinner.

00:54:32Yeah!

00:54:33No.

00:54:54No.

00:54:57No.

00:54:57Is your master in, my dear?

00:54:59Yes, sir.

00:55:01Can I see him, my love?

00:55:03He's in the dining room, sir.

00:55:05I'll show you in.

00:55:07He knows me.

00:55:09He knows me.

00:55:13You sit there.

00:55:15You sit there.

00:55:26Fred.
