A Christmas Carol
1984
1h 41mPG
George C. Scott plays Scrooge like a businessman you would not want to owe money. The 1984 version, free on Tubi. A strong, straight Carol.
Christmas classics on Tubi
Tubi has the Carol people argue about, twice. George C. Scott's 1984 Scrooge is stern and excellent. Alastair Sim's 1951 version is the one a lot of families still call the real one. The Bishop's Wife and Holiday Affair are here too, free with ads. A very decent classic night for no subscription at all.

A Christmas Carol
1951
1h 26m
Alastair Sim's 1951 Scrooge, the one a lot of families still call the real one. Free on Tubi. Black-and-white, and it has the best transformation.
Holiday Affair
1949
1h 27m
A war widow, a toy train, and Robert Mitchum refusing to let her stay careful. A 1949 charmer on Prime and Tubi. Short, black-and-white, and very easy to love.
The Bishop's Wife
1947
1h 49m
An angel, played by Cary Grant, arrives to help a bishop who has forgotten why he wanted the cathedral. Christmas, romance, and a very light touch. On Prime and Tubi.
