The Ghosts on The Big Brown Couch: Scrooge (1935)

Episode 2 presents one of the most jaw-droppingly dreary versions ever to hit the silver screen. 1935’s Scrooge starred Sir Seymour Hicks, a British thespian famous for his many portrayals of Ebenezer Scrooge, both on film and on the London stage. With all that practice (including starring in an earlier 1913 silent film adaptation), you might expect Sir Hicks to give a pretty good performance. Yeah, dream on, Tiny Tim. His acting alternates between hysterics and sleepwalking, most of the time while on a single set that looks like it cost about fifty bucks... er, pounds, to hammer together. The best way to enjoy the scenery-chewing antics of Sir Seymour Hicks is with three or four smart-a**** beside you to share your misery. Fortunately Johnny and his friends on the Big Brown Couch have volunteered! Join Dori, Becky, and Babs as they ease some of the celluloid pain.
