Bristol Film Festival: The Muppet Christmas Carol

Director
Brian Henson
Certificate
U
Running Time
83 mins

The Muppets’ definitive take on the Dickens classic, with Michael Caine perfectly cast and playing it dead straight as Scrooge, relegating Kermit to the role of Bob Cratchit.

History records that The Muppet Christmas Carol lost the Christmas 1992 box office battle to Home Alone 2: Lost in New York. But who remembers that one now, eh? This Bristol Film Festival screening launches a new partnership with the Bristol Old Vic, bringing film screenings to the theatre’s auditorium for the first time. Go here for tickets and further information.
