An American Christmas Carol

This delightful take on the Charles Dickens classic sets the tale in New Hampshire on Christmas Eve of 1933. As the Depression rages, rich and miserly Benedict Slade (Henry Winkler) refuses to lend a helping hand to his townspeople. But when he is visited by three ghosts who show him his past, present, and future, he discovers the error of his ways. Co-stars Dorian Harewood, Susan Hogan. 96 min. Standard; Soundtrack: English; interview.
