Man Who Inveted Christmas (2017) – Charles Dickens gets the Shakespeare in Love treatment while trying to write “A Christmas Carol: among his other life problems. Money troubles, pregnant wife, nary-do-well farther wanting money. The gimmick is that the Scrooge characters in the story appear as characters in this movie to say the lines and help him envision the story,. Interesting if you know the Dickens references. I know fewer than the Shakespeare ones. It's a perfectly competent production without surprising the viewer with anything extraordinary.
