What happens
A Christmas Carol is a 1910 silent drama film directed by J. Searle Dawley and produced at Edison Studios in The Bronx in New York City. After the 1901 British release Scrooge, or, Marley's Ghost, this American version of Charles Dickens' 1843 novella is the second oldest surviving screen adaptation of the famous literary work. It features Marc McDermott as Ebenezer Scrooge and Charles S. Ogle as Bob Cratchit. The film is approximately 13 minutes long and was produced as a one-reel silent film, a standard format for the era. Similar to many films of the era, it was staged similar to a play with a stationary camera and actors performing full view in frame. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
