If you loved The Five People You Meet In Heaven, try FX's A Christmas Carol
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Theysit in Drama / Fantasy territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Five People You Meet In Heaven, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What FX's A Christmas Carol is
Scrooge without sentimentality. A miser receives spectral visits one Christmas Eve, each spirit intent on revealing the error of his ways. Guy Pearce makes a chillingly unsympathetic lead in this grim holiday fable.
