A Twilight Zone Christmas Carol? Sort of...


It's now Christmas Eve Eve, December 23rd, and I went looking for a cool video about the origin of Santa Claus, the actual person that was Saint Nicholas.  But I ran into a whole bunch of religious propaganda videos, rather than one that seemed fairly objective.  Then this odd video popped up, a version of Dickens' classic story, A Christmas Carol, written by Rod Serling, the guy behind The Twilight Zone.  This film was produced in 1964, and has rarely aired.  This isn't the actual full movie, but a cool doc looking at the story behind this unusual, made-for-TV movie.  Looking for something Chrismasy that you haven't seen before?  Interested in a deeper look at this holiday seasons than the Hallmark Channel crap?  Here you go.  Merry Christmas everyone!
