Description:

Two years after the success of “Oliver Twist”, Charles Dickens is financially struggling. He sets out to write a new book due in six weeks in order to be published by Christmas. Seeking inspiration around London, he sees a rich man’s funeral that is largely unattended and meets the characters he is writing about, most notably Ebenezer Scrooge. While writing his book, Charles has a fallout with his father, John Dickens, who views him as immature and fiscally irresponsible. As he struggles to finish the book in time, being unable to resolve Scrooge’s story, Charles finally realizes that his story should be one of redemption. “A Christmas Carol” is an instantaneous success and redefines the Christmas holiday. <104mn>
