Review of The Man Who Invented Christmas (2017) by B G — 09 Mar 2018

I liked the premise (Dickens' characters become real to him and inform his writing; in a sense they create him instead of the other way around) but I thought Dan Stevens (late of Downton Abbey), the lead, over acted. Christopher Plummer, I think, has never turned in a bad performance and, as Scrooge, redeems the film.

I don't think it will be a classic, but 3 stars for trying.
