Watched Albert Finney's "Scrooge" this morning/afternoon.

Watching George C. Scott's "A Christmas Carol" in between downloads now.

I'll probably watch 2 or 3 other versions of the Dickens classic before Christmas, for certain the Sim version -- perhaps even re-read the book.

I LOVE the story; a corrupted man redeemed after an epiphany through tangible acts of social justice in the real world instead of, say, unearned forgiveness merely for the asking through blind faith to an imaginary realm.



DVRed the classic Michael Rennie version of "The Day the Earth Stood Still" for viewing tonight. Sadly I saw most of the Keanu Reeves version on HBO will in Florida. Have to watch the classic to wash the pain of that awful, needless remake from my consciousness.
