The Muppet Christmas Carol & The Snowman

The Muppet characters tell their version of the classic tale of an old and bitter miser's redemption on Christmas Eve. The Muppet Christmas Carol, it was one of many film adaptations of Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol. Gonzo, claiming to be Dickens himself, narrates the story, with the help of Rizzo the Rat. Michael Caine plays Ebenezer Scrooge, with Muppets taking the rest of the parts including Kermit the Frog as Bob Cratchit, Miss Piggy as Emily Cratchit, Robin the Frog as Tiny Tim, and Fozzie Bear as Fozziwig.

The Snowman is a delightful 26 minute animated film that weaves a spell of magical enchantment as a young boys snowman comes to life and they both take a magical flying visit to the North Pole. A little boy rushes out into the wintry day to build a snowman, which comes alive in his dreams that night. Like the book, the story is told through pictures, action and music. The film is a wordless story except for the song "Walking in the Air" performed by a choir boy, and is illustrated in soft drawings like the hazy softness of air in snow. The experience of this film is one that anyone adult and child alike - will ever forget.
