Scrooged had Anne Ramsey (The Goonies), Mary Allen-Trainor (Lethal Weapon), and Steve Kahan (Lethal Weapon, and also Donner's cousin). Another interesting factoid is that when Murray and his real life brother John Murray are walking down the street and encounter a street band the members of that band conists of: Jazz legend Miles Davis, Letterman band leader Paul Schaffer, composer David Sanborn, and guitarist Larry Carlton. Everybody has a favorite holiday movie. For some it might be It’s A Wonderful Life (personally one of my favorites) or maybe A Christmas Story (a film I slowly grew out of) or you might even be a Scrooged fan. Nothing says holiday spirit like the tale of Frank Cross (Bill Murray), a mean spirited TV executive whose hopes and dreams for the Christmas holiday are to “Scare the Dickens out of people” so that they’ll stay in and watch his channel’s Christmas special and boost his ratings. Since this is Charles Dickens immortal classic Scrooge turned on its ear; Frank cross is in for the night of his life as he is visited by three ghosts (well really four if you count his old boss), an ex-flame, and feelings that he had long since thought dead about the holiday season. In my house, this film is a classic, and it was more then a treat to see it brought to Blu-Ray. So how did it look? QUALITY: BONUS FEATURES: Pictures: |
