We then get to his counting house and I like that Scrooge is sentimental when he first see’s it, even excited. With Past we go right to Fezziwig’s (no childhood or other scenes) and it is mainly to introduce to Belle played by Daisy (and I think the only time Daisy is not with Donald).

The world is good and full of light but we have a responsibility to accept that light. That’s an interesting take on the message of Christmas Carol. Is kindness of any use? Later from Present we hear of ‘generosity’ and Present tells Scrooge he’s never given anyone a reason to be generous to him. Scrooge “Kindness is of little use in this world”
Jimminy “If men were measured by kindness you’d be no bigger than a speck of dust” There is no ‘let them die and decrease the surplus population’ which is perhaps a bit harsh for this version so good choice. It is interesting because if his life work were painting people wouldn’t expect him to give those away for nothing but a life work of money is. “You work all your life to get money and people want you to give it away”. That is very clever and gives Scrooge a sarcasm and humor I don’t recall as pronounced in many other versions. Oh please gentlemen don’t as me to put you out of a job” “well you realize if you give money to the poor they won’t be poor any more and if they aren’t poor any more than you won’t have to raise money for them and you two will be out of a job. The introductory scene is fairly standard featuring Mickey as Cratchit, Donald as Fred (Donald just makes me smile every time I see him), and Rat and Mole as the benefactors. A lot of the other cartoon versions such as Smurfs or Flintstones take the story into their worlds, but I like that it feels of period. It’s interesting they went the Victorian route.

They pull a lot from Fun and Fancy Free and Ichabod and Mr Toad which I guess is understandable given they have a lot of characters that fit a Victorian era. Alan Young is wonderful as Scrooge and gives a lot of humor to the lead vocal.ĭifferences- Obviously the biggest difference is we have our Disney characters anthropomorphized as the title characters of Christmas Carol. Scrooge- Given they already had a character named Scrooge McDuck who is famous for skiing on his gold this was a no brainer.
