Compare and Contrast "A Christmas Carol" Movies

The most obvious difference is that the Scrooge in Disney version is exaggeratedly greedy and stingy than that in Patrick Stewart's. Disney's Scrooge seems to be satisfied to engulf all the money in the world, because he hesitates and twitches before giving a penny. Stewart's Scrooge seems to be more serious and realistic while Disney's Scrooge seems to be more jocular and has black humor (according to his appearance). Disney's characters always have their own characteristics. On the other hand, Bob Cratchit is obviously different in both visions. He is depicted as tiny and weak in Disney's while he is tall and bold but he feared Scrooge pretty much. In addition, Disney's version is much more gorgeous and bright than Stewart's, whereas the Disney's spirits sprinkle magical dust while the Stewart's spirits transform and change the scene. Disney's background seems so magnificent while Stewart's background seems gloomy and portraits the polluted London under the Industrialized Revolution. Surprisingly, Stewart's Ghost of Christmas Past takes Scrooge back home, unlike the Ghost disappears when Scrooge seizes its hat in Disney's. When Scrooge visits Fred, Disney's Scrooge actually encounters an awkward situation in which Fred is asking guests to guess a riddle: Who's the savage animal, ass? When the guest is about to shout the answer (Scrooge) out loud, Scrooge knocks the door and enters. However, they still have a merry dinner. As in Stewart's vision, the guests are singing the carol with the intentionally repeated word "shy" while Scrooge is shy and embarrassed but he eventually en-heartens the courage and enters. At the end of the story, Disney's Scrooge sings the carol with the choir and carries Tiny Tim down the street while Stewart's Scrooge sings in the church and Bob's family visits Scrooge. Lastly, Bob narrates the ending in Disney's while Fred narrates the ending in Stewart's. 
The similarities between the Disney's and Stewart's are that they both start with the funeral of Jacob Marley. Both Scrooge loves to say "HUMBUG!" and is covetous and miserly. The Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come doesn't talk in both versions and seems cold-hearted. Both Scrooge wakes up from falling into the coffin but changes the behavior right away. The most important part is that both versions of A Christmas Carol do bring me a sense of thankfulness and touches my heart deeply. They remind me I should appreciate what I possess, and be grateful to people who I met, because they give me lessons. They make the audience feel benevolent and warm-hearted for watching wonderful movies which enlighten and stretch our minds far far away. Both movies are worth to watch whenever we are perplexed  because they widen our visions and bring us new hopes toward future and life.
