My favorite version is the one made in 1951 with Alastair Sim.

George C Scott version is my favoritee also, although I do like the Kelsey Grammer version also.  I love that story.....all versions!

This is one of my preferred versions too. 

My most favorite is the one from 1938 with Reginald Owen. I believe it is the first one I ever saw, and the one that seems most special to me.

Loved the version of Jane Eyre (1970) with Susannah York.

Yes!  @just bee, had forgotten that.

I have many favorites of his, but maybe the most "rounded" and satisfying role was his absolutely convincing portrayal of British, very Establishment, patrician ex-MI-5 operative in "The List of Adrian Messinger".  The guy could just play everything!  Oh, and supercilious big-deal Lansing attorney "Claude Dancer", Jimmy Stewart's opponent in "Anatomy of a Murder"....

My favorite version......Love George C Scott as an actor

Since I was a young girl I have always loved Christmas Carol, the Alastair Sim version is the best in my opinion.  I love all the Scrooge movies including this , the George C. Scott version.  He does a great job of playing Scrooge.  The musical version with Albert Finny is excellent too.  But my tradition always includes the Alistair Sims Christmas Carol. I know the script having seen it since the fifties and owning the DVD of course.  I also have a collection of Scrooge items which I display at Christmas.

  I know the movie may be dark and dreary but it is a movie with an inspiring message and I love the ending.   I am a fan of Dickens movies and series, love them all and know despite the doom and gloom, all will end well!!!!!!!
