>I think George C. Scott did one too, but I like the one with Alistair the best also.

Even Henry Winkler did one. I bet there are more remakes of that story than anything else ever filmed. Afaic, the Alistair Simm movie is definitive. Nothing else comes close.

>>The one with Alistair Simm is the one I meant - from 1951. I'd forgotten there was one even earlier than that. I had to look it up - sheesh the original was from 1938 - the year my mom was born! I knew about the one in 1951 and the one with Patrick Stewart.

>>>The original one with Reginald Owen? Not the one starring Alistair Simm? Simm's Scrooge is, afaic, one of the finest performances ever captured on film.
