A Four Cent Carol

About This Movie

So, 'A Four Cent Carol' is an interesting take on the classic Scrooge tale, set against the backdrop of a writer's strike. The comedy blends in a fantasy element with three Hollywood spirits showing up, which adds a unique twist to the usual ghosts. The pacing feels a bit uneven at times, but it has moments that really land well. It's got that low-budget charm, where practical effects and clever writing make up for what it lacks in polish. The performances can swing from earnest to over-the-top—definitely a mixed bag—but that adds to its quirky appeal. It’s this odd mix of satire and homage to the film industry that gives it a distinctive flavor, making it worth a watch for genre enthusiasts.
