The Muppet Christmas Carol (1992)
Michael Caine meets the Muppets in this 1992 retelling of Charles Dickens' "A Christmas Carol." Like 1970's Scrooge, The Muppet Christmas Carol manages to present a song-and-dance version while remaining largely faithful to the original story. For scores of viewers, Caine's charming performance is one of the more definitive in recent Scrooge memory: gruff yet lovable, alternatively heartless and human, all the while serving as a deft counterpoint to Jim Henson's lovable Muppets. For Henson fans, this film is particularly poignant, as it was the first feature-length production to feature someone else as the voice of Kermit.
