“Well, then, I’ll just swallow this and be tortured by a legion of hobgoblins, all of my own creation! It’s all HUMBUG, I tell you, HUMBUG!”
– Ebenezer Scrooge (Alastair Sim), Scrooge (1951), screenplay by Noel Langley, based on a short story by Charles Dickens
The best filmed version of this story, as far as I'm concerned. Alistair Sim is the definitive Scrooge.
