About Mister Magoo's Christmas Carol
In this animated musical version of Charles Dickens' "A Christmas Carol", Ebenezer Scrooge - via Mr. Magoo's starring performance in a stage production of the classic - doesn't have a ghost of a chance unless he learns the true meaning of Christmas from the three spirits who haunt him one Christmas Eve.
Directed by Abe Levitow, Mister Magoo's Christmas Carol leans on a strong ensemble — Jim Backus, Morey Amsterdam, Jack Cassidy — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about animation titles of 1962.
