Probably my favorite part in this movie is when Scrooge awakens, and begins to laugh - but he hasn't laughed in so long that the muscles don't quite work right, so it takes him a while to get out a proper laugh. Well, that and the film remembers to include both Ignorance and Want.

Not really my favorite version. Patrick Stewart playing bald Scrooge. Is like Captain Picard is in the story of A Christmas Carol in the hologram Enterprise program. It just needed Data as Bob Cratchit.
