I was thrilled to see, "An American Christmas Carol", on the Prime list. I love the Dicken's story and this was a worthy adaptation that I remembered from my original viewing more than 30 years ago. Set in early 20th century America, there are a few simple changes from the classic version. Scrooge is a money lender, having grown rich by lending, then repossessing merchandise when his clients could not keep up on payments. The ghosts of Christmas past, present and future are represented by some of the clients. But, anyone familiar with "The Christmas Carol", will have no trouble recognizing the storyline. Feel good, holiday favorite.
A good adaptation of a holiday favorite

Thought it was a very good interpretation of A Christmas Carol. Henry Winkler did a good job as Mr. Slate (Scrooge). I would recommend this movie if you are a fan.

This was a nice adaptation of the classic Dickens tale. Seeing Winkler as the "Scrooge" character left me waiting for an "Ayyyyyyy!" at some point but overall quite watchable.

Pathetic reproduction of the Dickens classic. Interesting that the movie is particularly concerned with the problem of people who lose their possessions to money lenders--corporations not unlike the ones which own directly or indirectly the media which present us with the American version of the Christmas carol.

I remember watching this as a young kid. I've looked for it for years. Honestly, the story line is not as great as I remembered, but the fact that I could find it to view on Amazon warranted my inflated rating.

Honestly - we started watching this particular "Christmas Carol" because it was the only one that was free with Prime. Took a few minutes to get used to, but it was actually nice having an American twist on the story. We ended up enjoying it very much.

It's a good version if you are wanting something less dark than the original. Plus, who doesn't love the Fonz?
Good family show!

A great modern version of an old Scrooge story that todays kids can relate to. Henry's acting is outstanding!

Has always been my favorite Christmas Carol. Quality not that good because it was made for television in the 70's but a yearly watch for us

I don't understand why this has not become a Christmas staple. My family enjoyed it when it was first shown, enjoyed it a couple of seasons probably and then it went away. I was very pleased to find it a couple of years ago. We love all things "Scrooge" at our house. Enjoy!

Just really great! I never knew the Fonze played Scrooge. Well, the characters' names are all different, there's no nephew, the ghost of Christmas future talks, but the basic story line is the same old wonderful classic. I really enjoyed this movie and I think you will too!
Worth watching!

It was great seeing this again. I remember when it first came out. Henry Winkler was still the Fonz. I remember how strange it was seeing him in this role. A great take on Mr. Dickens classic story.

This is your classic Christmas Carol with Henry Winkler playing Scrooge. He was actually fairly young when he played this part. They did a great job making him look like an old man. Of course, Henry did a great job with the acting portion. The ending in this take was a little unbelievable as Scroodge was very old by that time. Still a very uplifting film with a good lesson for life.
