A Christmas Carol is a 2000 made-for-TV film adaptation of the novel of the same name, giving it a Setting Update to the present day.Eddie Scrooge (Ross Kemp) is a loan shark who works in a poor, inner-city estate, and routinely takes advantage of his less than fortunate clients. Christmas Eve sees him taking a television away from a young mother who has fallen behind on her payments, harassing an elderly couple for the two extra pounds that they owe him, and ignoring the mother of his recently deceased partner, who just wants to know the circumstances behind his untimely death. His beleaguered work colleague Bob Cratchett (Michael Maloney) is being kept from spending some much needed time with his sick son, Tim, who is in hospital with cystic fibrosis, by Eddie insisting that they need to work on Christmas.But then Eddie is visited by his old partner Jacob Marley (Ray Fearon), who warns Eddie that he needs to change his ways, and that he will be visited by three spirits; the ghost of Christmas Past, who appears as Eddie's father (Warren Mitchell), the ghost of Christmas Present who appears as Marley himself, who claims he's pulling double duty as Christmas Eve is the busiest night of the year for spirits, and the ghost of Christmas Future, who appears to Eddie as a mysterious young boy who looks somewhat familiar.One difference between this adaptation and others is that Eddie Scrooge is caught in a "Groundhog Day" Loop, and repeats the same Christmas Eve until he's finally able to put things right.This film provides examples of: | |
