A really nice Christmas movie that mimics Scrooge. Sydney is a lemon drop eating scammer who scams the wrong person. With payback due by Christmas Eve, Sydney cooks up a scheme to defraud many little old ladies. With events in play he has a change of heart and helps the ladies rather than harm them.... deScrooged if you like. With Christmas in the background this film is pleasant fun and redeeming. Great movie of hope with Bob Hope who does a wonderful job as the lemon drop kid.
