It’s a Dickensian holiday with Nitehawk and NY Distilling’s FILM FEAST presentation of SCROOGED. Ugly sweater wearing is greatly encouraged!
Charles Dickens’ classic tale A Christmas Carol has seen numerous adaptations but none are as darkly strange as the Bill Murray helmed Scrooged. As Frank Moss, he plays a television station executive known as much for his callousness and cruelty as for his money-making programming. This Christmas he’s in for a real life lesson. On the eve (Christmas Eve) of hosting a live broadcast of A Christmas Carol, Moss is visited by three ghosts who, well, you know the story…
As always, our Film Feasts serve each dish at the moment its inspirational scene comes on the screen!
