A Christmas Carol.
One night can change a lifetime.
Three spirits confront the miser Ebenezer Scrooge with his past, his neighbors' present hardships and a frightening possible future. He must decide whether to change before the final vision becomes real.
Watch the official trailer ↗Why it’s a little special
An elaborate animated interpretation for families ready for a darker holiday story. The shifting scale and ghostly journeys emphasize how unsettling Scrooge's transformation is meant to be.
BEFORE YOU PRESS PLAY
Know the story.
Know your little people.
Intense ghosts, a dislocating jaw, skeletal figures, chases and a grave. Death, poverty and a child's possible loss make this significantly scarier than many Christmas films.
Our notes are a starting point, not an age recommendation. G and PG films can still include intense moments. You know your family best.
