Trivia / Christmas Carol: The Movie

Go To

  • All-Star Cast: The movie has Simon Callow as Charles Dickens and Ebenezer Scrooge, Kate Winslet as Belle, Beth Winslet as Fan, Rhys Ifans as Bob Cratchit, and Nicolas Cage as Jacob Marley.
  • Breakaway Pop Hit: Kate Winslet's song "What If". The film was critically panned and is largely forgotten, but the song shot to number 6 in the charts in its first week and became the Christmas number one in Ireland for 2001. The song is still fondly remembered and most people forget it came from the movie.
  • Creator Backlash: As shown in this interview, Kate isn't very proud over singing "What If".
  • Cross-Regional Voice Acting: The voice acting is done in England, but the only voice actor that isn't British is Nicolas Cage.
  • Edited for Syndication: Some versions of the film cut out the live-action scenes at the beginning and end of the movie.
  • Real-Life Relative: Both Belle and Fan are voiced by Kate and Beth Winslet, who are sisters in real life.
  • Rereleased for Free: The movie is sometimes free to watch on Tubi during Christmas.
