A Christmas Carol 3D
The 2009 re-adaptation of the magical Dickens Christmas tale – A Christmas Carol 3D – is set to hit IMAX Melbourne Museum this festive season. This multi-sensory thrill ride re-envisioned by Academy Award-winning filmmaker Robert Zemeckis, responsible for Polar Express 3D (2004), Beowulf 3D (2007), and the famous Back to the Future trilogy, captures the fantastical essence of the classic Dickens tale in a ground breaking 3D motion picture event. Scrooge begins the Christmas holiday with his usual miserly contempt, barking at his faithful clerk (Gary Oldman) and his cherry nephew (Colin Firth). But when the ghosts of Christmas past, present and future take him on an eye-opening journey revealing truths old Scrooge is reluctant to face, he must open his heart to undo years of ill will before it’s too late.
