A Christmas Carol (1971 film)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A Christmas Carol (1971) is a 25-minute animated cartoon adaptation of Charles Dickens' venerable novella which was originally shown on ABC television in the US.


                                            Ebenezer Scrooge


Production
 
A Christmas Carol was animated and directed by Richard Williams, and starred Alastair Sim as the voice of Ebenezer Scrooge (a role Sim had previously performed in the 1951 live-action film Scrooge). Michael Hordern likewise reprised his 1951 performance as Marley's Ghost. Michael Redgrave narrated the story. Veteran animator Chuck Jones served as executive producer.

Awards
 
Originally produced as a television special, A Christmas Carol won an Academy Award (for best animated short subject) in 1973; it remains the only film adaptation of the story to date to be so honored. However, some industry insiders were unhappy that a short originally shown on TV was awarded the Academy Award, which led to the Academy changing its policy, disqualifying any shorts that were shown on television first. This adaptation has a distinctive look, created by multiple pans and zooms and excellent scene transitions. It also was largely inspired by the original illustrations of the story.[1]
