What Is Your Favorite Christmas Movie?

The Albert Finney version of Christmas Carol-- called ‘Scrooge’, sadly enough. Otherwise, first rate: you both understand how Scrooge got that way, and believe his transformation when it happens.

Ghost of Christmas Present gives him a drink which he likes very much, asks what it’s called.

“The Milk of Human Kindness” answers the Ghost.

“I’ve never tasted anything like it”, says Scrooge…

This is also my personal favorite. My kids love it too. We’re suckers for musicals.
