Popular Post Tippaporn Posted December 9, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 9, 2021 (edited) For me it's a toss up. Though I must say the '51 version of A Christmas Carol is my favourite as Alastair Sim seems to have been born for the role of Scrooge. Just a suggestion but posting of a movie clip is, IMHO, the best way to mark your choice(s). Edited December 9, 2021 by Tippaporn 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ours are now 21 & 14 but never seen to tire of it....

TheScience Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 (edited) This is audio but guaranteed to have you pissing your pants in laughter. Do yourself a favor and locate the full monologue perhaps on TPB. Don't ruin it for yourself by just finding a short clip. The full version runs at least 25 and perhaps 40 minutes.

The leading lady is very easy on the eyes, and while the storyline is slight, one ends with an upbeat feeling, which is always nice given the world we live in.

wwest5829 Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 (edited) I have begun watching on Christmas themed movie a night. Will finish up with the classics of "Its a Wonderful Life" and "A Christmas Carol" (my preference, George C. Scott). "Diehard I", "White Christmas", 'Miracle on 34th Street" ... Last night was "Love the Coopers", have "The Santa Clause" series, likewise "The Christmas Chronicles", "The Grinch" is in the mix, as is the "Home Alone" movies. About 16 in all will keep me busy ... a kid at age 74. Edited December 12, 2021 by wwest5829 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
