The Man Who Invented Christmas was an excellent holiday movie and I believe it has the potential to become a great classic the same as “Miracle on 34th Street,” Its a Wonderful Life” and the Bishops Wife. I saw it several times in December and I will definately purchase it on DVD when it comes out. I thought the acting was uniformly superb and casting Christopher Plummer as Scrouge was a brilliant choice. I hope to hear of its release in the near future.
