One thought on ACP 65: A Jizzmas Carol
I almost expected someone to bring up Fritz the Cat (although I’ve never seen it), especially since Cool World was mentioned.
I’m a little surprised that you should be so hard on William’s Christmas Carol.
I watched it again the other day and I had forgotten just how beautifully it had been done.
It’s probably the best of all the animated versions. You’re unlikely to ever see something like this again.
It may be a little short but you have to remember that this was
all done by hand on a TV budget. And it was made for an audience well
familiar with the story, in particular the Alastair Sim’s live-action version.
I always found A Christmas Carol to be one of the more upbeat of Dicken’s stories.
Some of his stuff can be very depressing.
