An animated magical musical version of the Charles Dickens immortal classic. The nearsighted Mr Magoo doesn't have a ghost of a chance as Ebenezer Scrooge, unless he learns the true meaning of Christmas Eve. All of Dickens memorable characters are here: mild-mannered Bob Cratchit, lovable Tiny Tim the terrifying ghost of Jacob Marley and spirits of Christmas past present and future. With a score by Julie Styne and Bob Merril and starring the befuddled voice of Jim Backus. This is a delightful family holiday treat.
