Christmas carols

I´m about to compare the story of “A Christmas Carol” and the film “Scrooge”. I´m going to be talking about the characters, setting, and the mood. All of these elements will help me define which one of the two methods of delivery (play or film) is better at the moment of telling the story. In the play the characters are described with detail, of course because you can not see them. The description of each character is precise. The actions, mood, setting are defined by every word, but sometimes

times in the book A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens. Bob Cratchit shows many actions as a Christian. What its is like to be a christ-follower is that you love everybody, you don’t hate a person for what they believe or who they are, and that you don’t judge people. I will be proving that Bob Cratchit is a christ-follower as shown by his words and actions. One way Mr. Cratchit is a Christ-follower is that he is kind to Mr. Scrooge even though Scrooge isn’t kind to him. On Christmas Eve Mr. Scrooge

actually a Christmas story written for people to come together for a good time and to write their own stories just to meet up in the haunted house together and share their experiences.

The Modernist Rebellion against Victorians While transitioning from the Victorian Era to the Modernist Era, Modernist are distancing themselves from Victorian values and techniques, which we see in Dickens “A Christmas Carol,” and Woolf’s “The Lady Through the Looking Glass: A Reflection.” Victorian values focused on the line between good and bad, right or wrong, as Victorians saw the world governed by God’s will and it was characterized by the industrial revolution, high ethical levels and the

From the story, “A Christmas Carol”, to the movie, “Scrooged”, there are many similarities and differences in the characters, symbols and even plot although much of it is due to the change in setting from the early 1840’s to the late 1980’s. Beginning with characters, Ebenezer Scrooge carries his overall theme of generosity or lack thereof into the movie where he is referred to as Frank Cross. Cross shows this in his Christmas gifts that he gives out to family and employees which happen to be no

I think movies are much interesting than short stories and novels. I liked the DVD better than I did the written version of A Christmas Carol. Movies and books are very different. They can trick you think that they are going to be the same. It might sound the same but they are really different. I like to watch movies more than I like to read books. A Christmas Carol is a very famous story and movie. Some of the similarities were that everyone thought that Scrooge was dead, but he really wasn’t

contrasts in England during the Victorian era (the 1800s). Charles Dickens, a famous writer living in that time, wrote about the theme of social injustices in his profound writings.

textiles that could be sold and transferred for a profit. For the film made in 1984, A Christmas Carol, a miserly business man, Scrooge, is a rich, high-class man who runs a business and only cares about the money he’s making, not giving a second thought of his employee’s extremely low, unfair salary. As employees of Scrooge, the daily pay/income was not stable enough to be able to feed families, buy any gifts for Christmas, but Scrooge was just a man who had his head stuck on his salary; and having employees

Dicken’s A Christmas Carol is a stubborn character that insists on his lone, grumpy life. His outlook on life had been skewed ever since his beautiful fiancé Belle left him after she saw his love of money and wealth only growing. Scrooge lost the love of his life to greed yet he still holds tightly to it. Although many in his life have extended a warm hand to show him love and kindness, he has rejected it coldly.
