There were a lot of different adaptations of this story to choose from. The version I knew the best was the Animaniacs cartoon. J wanted the Mickey Mouse version. Jon wanted the Patrick Stewart version. The George C. Scott film was also suggested. In the end, I went with the classic 1951 version because after doing some research, I found out it was one of the most revered films among fans of the novel that wasn’t a made-for-television movie. So I watched that one and loved it. It’s definitely up there next to It’s a Wonderful Life and Bad Santa as one of my favorite holiday films.
