Ptarick Stewart had played Scrooge on the stage in a one man show and I am glad that they captured it on film. He does a fine job as everyone's favorite Christmas miser, but George C. Scotts version and Susan Lucci's Ebbe are still the best. The supporting cast is easily forgettable but Stewart more then makes up for that with his masterful performance. He makes Scrooge's transformation effective, believable and heartwarming.
