    The songs from this movie and the movie itself are criminally underrated..The critics lambasted this film and the music and I'll never know why...This songs are as much a part of my Christmas celebration as any carol you can name

      Agree wholeheartedly. I didn’t see Scrooge until I was married and had a little one. I was 10 when this movie came out but parents were not very christmasy. Anyway, once I saw it, it became a standard with my kids. In fact a few years back, my adult sons bought me the soundtrack on vinyl - one of my favorite gifts ever ❤️

      @@Aaron-ox8ye I know but the Academy Awards are still considered the top awards of all films of the year. 1970 was an interesting year for movies and many actors were marvelous and only 1 can win in each category. You had Patton, Mash, Tora Tora Tora, Scrooge and several other films that could have gotten the award but Patton was so great that they gave the award to that almost automatically! And you had Geo C. SCOTT, Elliott Gould, Albert Finney, Melvyn Douglas and others worthy of the Best Actor Oscar but Geo.C Scott bested everybody else in that category. Besides musicals were becoming unlikely to win Best Picture anymore, as Oliver! In 1968 being one of the last films to be considered, and that film was even better than Scrooge!!!!!

    Lovely reading these comments of how much this film means to folk. I was born in 1972 England and I must have seen this flick when I was about 9 then EVERY Christmas there after we had to watch it on TV as a family, it was as much part of our family Christmas as the Turkey and presents. Childhood is now over, mum n dad have sadly passed on, all there are is memories and the tradition of still watching this wonderful film ever Christmas with my kids.

      I was atheist, but JESUS SAVED me in 1972! I woke up Christmas Morning Born Again! GLORY! GOD had me walk HOLY for nearly 25 years, then said, Offer your father Salvation!
      So I asked Daddy if he would pray with me and he said YES! I prayed with him, and the LORD sanctified him MANY years afterward. Daddy went Home in 2010 with the testimony, "I've received the LORD! I'm READY to go!" HalleluJah! Mama had been our example all my life. She had gotten weak from trials and tribulations, (including Daddy's alcoholic rages, and MY explosions of "You forgot my cigarettes?") When Mama left for Home from a heart attsck, my brother told us the scene! He was giving her artificial respiration, but she pushed him away. Then she smiled at him, laughed out LOUD, and he felt her Spirit jerk upwards! GLORY to GOD! We're gonna have a GREAT family reunion some day SOON JESUS is on His way back to receive us unto HIMSELF! I'm so EXCITED! 😇🙏🙌

    CHRISTMAS CHILDREN
    From "Scrooge"
    (Leslie Bricusse)
    Christmas children peep into Christmas windows
    See a world as pretty as a dream
    Christmas trees and toys
    Christmas hopes and joys
    Christmas puddings rich with Christmas cream
    Christmas presents shine in the Christmas windows
    Christmas boxes tied with Christmas bows
    Wonder what's inside
    What delights they hide
    But till Christmas morning no one knows
    Won't it be exciting if it snows?
    I suppose that children everywhere
    Must say a Christmas prayer
    Till Santa brings their Christmas things
    Christmas children live in a Christmas daydream
    Waiting for the magic to unfold
    Wondrous things to eat
    Every Christmas treat
    Rich or not the Christmas pot of gold
    Hypnotizes children young and old
    Christmas children hunger for Christmas morning
    Christmas day's a wonder to behold
    Young ones' dreams come true
    Not so young ones, too
    I believe that story we've been told
    Christmas is for children young and old
