Visible crew/equipment: Towards the the end, when Scrooge wakes up in his bedroom on Christmas day and is elated to know he is still alive, he goes over and looks in the mirror twice. Both times you can see someone in the mirror reflection in the background, possibly holding a script.
A Christmas Carol (1951)
Directed by: Brian Desmond Hurst

Continuity mistake: The scavenger discussing Scrooge's bed curtains with the housekeeper lays the curtains down in his lap, then the next shot he is holding them up again.
Continuity mistake: During the scene where the younger Scrooge and Marley are addressing their business associates, Marley's hands keep changing their position between shots. When the scene shows the entire group, his hands are on either side of his lap with his thumbs hooked in his vest pockets. During the close-ups of him and Scrooge, his hands are clasped together on his lap.
Ebenezer: Bob, I haven't taken leave of my senses. I've come to them.
Spirit of Christmas Present: You've never seen the like of me before, have you?
Ebenezer: Never, and I wish the pleasure had been indefinitely postponed.
Ebenezer: I must have a label... label label label label label.
Question: Is there a complete version of the song Barbara Allen from this movie? I think this version is the best I've ever heard.
