Godflix: The Man Who Invented Christmas

"The Man Who Invented Christmas" This is the story of Charles Dickens’ (Dan Stevens) writing of “A Christmas Carol.” Its setting is Christmas (who doesn’t want a dose of Christmas in July!) but the movie is about a lot more. Not only was his character, Scrooge (Christopher Plummer), tormented by ghosts to reclaim his soul, but Charles found himself dragged through his own life and reclaimed in the facing of his ghosts. Question: Got any ghosts? We all do. Maybe that’s what this movie is all about. It’s a fun, poignant and touching family film.
