's A Christmas Story

As every day, Ebenezer Scrooge (Jim Carrey) shows himself to be a miser and misanthrope on Christmas Eve, whether he's barking at his loyal accountant (Gary Oldman) or his cheerful nephew (Colin Firth). Shortly after, he encounters the ghost of his deceased business partner, Jacob Marley, who is paying the price for his heartlessness in the afterlife. Marley, wanting to spare Scrooge a similar fate, tells him that he will be visited by three spirits. Indeed, the spirits of Christmas Past, Present, and Future take the old Scrooge on a journey that ultimately opens his eyes. He is confronted with truths he would prefer to deny, but he must open his heart and let go of his years of resentment before it's too late.
