What really popped out about this book video for me is this:
“…an author found himself deep in debt, and wrote this story in six weeks.”
A Christmas Carol, indeed!
Happy Holidays, everyone!

Hm, that Dickens fellow may break out someday.
Isn’t it amazing what “legs” this story has? Virtually every incarnation of it — from Alistair Sim (the all time champ) to Mr. Magoo — packs the same wallop. Because it’s about the reclamation of a human being and the triumph of the “better angels” of his nature.
Write a classic in 6 weeks. Now there’s a New Year’s resolution.
Six weeks! I know, that’s my New Year’s resolution too, Joe! Jim, let’s hope that all of society’s better angels reign this Christmas season.
