Scrooge, or, Marley's Ghost

43Leave it.

What's left is a short sketch of the miser, not the Christmas feature you know.

The review

Only a piece of the first Carol film is still around. W. R. Booth gives you Scrooge and the ghost, a sketch of Dickens, not a later feature. A house can watch what survives. The miser is the point. I knew that outline before we started, and the fragment doesn't hide a turn I would need to spoil.

If the kids want a tight man and a ghost, this shows the idea and then stops. I'm not clearing a night for a Christmas picture that isn't here. The pages can do the rest of the work after the reel ends.

Keep Scrooge, or, Marley's Ghost in the record.

The glance

Industry and Household and Courage and Republic and Stewardship are the thin ones.

Does anyone here do a real job, and does that job matter?

The Gruffalo's Child

55 instead of 43

The Gruffalo's Child is still a fantasy film, and it scores 55 instead of 43. What you gain is household: A father, a child, a warning that holds.

The eight

3
Industry
The point is a miser, and the surviving piece is only a sketch.
4
Household
The Carol's household is famous; this sketch only guarantees the miser.
5
Piety
Marley's ghost is the warning, the nearest thing here to a conscience.
3
Courage
Meeting the ghost is the risk the title names, and only part survives.
4
Republic
A miser's debt to other people is the fame of the tale, only sketched.
6
Temperance
Greed is what the sketch puts on trial, which is why the miser is the point.
5
Truth
An honest sketch of Dickens, not a promise to play the whole Carol.
4
Stewardship
Part survives, and it leaves the miser, not a full Carol.

Casino Royale

43Leave it.

The poker is craft. The lesson they want is a hardening. Adults, and do not applaud the hardening.

The review

This is the Bond film that remembers a job is a series of choices with bodies attached. The card game is wonderful craft: reading a face, managing a sum, staying when you are losing. That part could teach a teenager something about nerve.

Then the education is completed by a woman's death, so the brand can have its armor back. Do not call that grown-up. Call it the old machine restarting. Watch the table if you watch it. Refuse the moral they wrote on her grave.
