It's a bit of a tricky question! Here's why:
* "A Christmas Carol" is a book first. Charles Dickens wrote the novella in 1843.
* There have been *many* movie adaptations. Some are closer to the book than others. Some are more faithful to the original story, while others take liberties with the plot or add their own interpretations.
So, it depends on which movie you're talking about!
