When was the very first time you ever heard the story of A Christmas Carol?
My first time was when I was a kid and Rankin/Bass aired The Stingiest Man in Town. The Scrooge in this story was voiced by Walter Matthau. I saw the story of A Christmas Carol and I thought this guy had a such a ghostly nightmare on Christmas night which almost didn't seem Christmassy at all. But then I liked it when the mean old Scrooge became nice in the end. Also for a while, I kind of had the anxieties that those ghosts would haunt my room whenever I go to bed at night.
A few years later, my grade school took a field trip to a theather where we saw A Christmas Carol live and I got to see the full story with live actors. It was a great show. And that same year, I saw Mickey's Christmas Carol in a movie theather.
