Synopsis

A Christmas Carol (2009) is Robert Zemeckis's animated drama you can watch online on iFILM. Ebenezer Scrooge hates the holiday and everyone in it. One night will change that.

On Christmas Eve the ghost of his dead partner Marley drags himself into Scrooge's room, and three more spirits follow — Past, Present and Yet to Come. They walk the old miser through his own life: the boy he abandoned inside himself, a poor family that finds joy in almost nothing, and a grave waiting for a man no one will mourn. Jim Carrey voices Scrooge and all three ghosts, with Gary Oldman, Colin Firth, Robin Wright and Bob Hoskins filling out the cast.

Zemeckis used the same performance-capture technique as The Polar Express, turning Charles Dickens's 1843 novella into a darker, almost gothic tale of redemption. Good for anyone who wants a Christmas story with teeth instead of sugar. Stream A Christmas Carol (2009) online on iFILM.
