A Christmas Carol
A miserly businessman must confront three supernatural visitors who force him to relive his past, face his present cruelty, and glimpse a bleak future, all in one night, if he hopes to escape a lonely death and find redemption.
“Charles Dickens' Joyous Holliday Classic!”
Synopsis
Ebenezer Scrooge lives a life of bitterness and greed as a harsh and stingy businessman, until he is visited by three spirits on Christmas Eve. Through their visions, he sees how his unhappy childhood and selfish behavior have made him a lonely and unkind old man.

How many hands made this film
The scale of the collaboration
Principal cast & crew: 17
These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.
Why a floor?
This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
