source: Afternoon movie
text: Afternoon movie The afternoon movie was a popular practice of local television stations from the 1950s through the 1970s. It consisted of the daily weekday showing of old films usually between 12:30 and 2:00 P.M; if the film ran two hours or more, it was split into two parts. Atlanta local station WSB-TV, for instance, would show films in this time slot under the umbrella title "Armchair Playhouse". Popular titles, such as the 1953 "House of Wax", "The Beast from 20,000 Fathoms" (also 1953), the 1935 "Mutiny on the Bounty", the 1949 "The Secret Garden", or "National Velvet" (1944), would often turn up as afternoon movies (years later, in 1978, "National Velvet" was shown on network television, by CBS). During the Christmas season, such films as "Gulliver's Travels" (1939), "" (1954), or "A Christmas Carol" (1938) would sometimes be telecast on local stations after the network telecast of the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade.

source: Mr. Fezziwig
text: Mr. Fezziwig Mr. Fezziwig is a character from the novel "A Christmas Carol" created by Charles Dickens to provide contrast with Ebenezer Scrooge's attitudes towards business ethics. Scrooge, who apprenticed under Fezziwig, is the very antithesis of the person he worked for as a young man. Mr. Fezziwig is portrayed as a jovial, foppish man with a large Welsh wig. In Act I, Scene 5 of "A Christmas Carol", the Ghost of Christmas Past takes Scrooge to revisit his youthful days in Fezziwig's world located at the cusp of the Industrial Revolution. Dickens used Fezziwig to represent a set of communal values and a way of life which was quickly being swept away in the economic turmoil of the early nineteenth century.

source: Scrooge, or, Marley's Ghost
text: Scrooge, or, Marley's Ghost Scrooge, or, Marley's Ghost is a 1901 British short silent drama film, directed by Walter R. Booth, featuring the miserly Ebenezer Scrooge confronted by Marley's ghost and given visions of Christmas past, present, and future, is the earliest known film adaptation of Charles Dickens's 1843 novel "A Christmas Carol". The film, "although somewhat flat and stage-bound to modern eyes," according to Ewan Davidson of BFI Screenonline, "was an ambitious undertaking at the time," as, "not only did it attempt to tell an 80 page story in five minutes, but it featured impressive trick effects, superimposing Marley's face over the door knocker and the scenes from his youth over a black curtain in Scrooge's bedroom."
