Scrooge (1951)
Alastair Sim plays Ebenezer Scrooge. Sim's Scrooge is the definitive screen version of the character.
Actor: Alastair Sim
Alastair Sim played Scrooge in the 1951 adaptation, and the performance is the standard against which every subsequent version is measured, largely because he plays the conversion as genuine hysteria instead of warmth. He also played the headmistress in the St Trinian’s films, in drag, across several entries.
