Scrooged
A network TV president is perhaps the most cold-hearted man
ever, but his holiday spirit is given a painful booster shot
by three vengeful ghosts. In this darkly comic updating of
Charles Dicken's Christmas classic A CHRISTMAS CAROL, Bill
Murray portrays Frank Cross, an evil, crass, executive who
caters to the lowest-of-the-lowest common denominators,
firing people whenever he wants to and for the flimsiest of
reasons. Therefore, to change his cruel and tasteless ways,
Cross is taken on a trip through his past to his future,
accompanied by ghosts David Johansen and Carol Kane, so that
he can achieve redemption. From a screenplay by SATURDAY
NIGHT LIVE's "Mr. Mike," Michael O'Donoghue. Academy Award
Nominations: Best Makeup.
