Рождественский гимн
Peter Cratchit
Великолепная экранизация рождественской истории Чарльза Диккенса. Скряга Эбенезер Скрудж в рождественскую ночь встречается с духами рождества, и понимает что живет не правильно. Скрудж, старый ненавистник Рождества, меняет свое отношение к светлому празднику после знакомства с духами. Эту картину по роману Диккенса (не первую и далеко не последнюю) считают не только лучшим рождественским фильмом, но и лучшей экранизацией английского классика...
