a gorgeous british made christmas story filled with dance. It features the voices of simon russell beale, siân phillips, carey mulligan, daniel kaluuya, andy serkis, martin freeman and leslie caron.    children prepare a toy theatre for their annual performance of a christmas carol. It’s a radical animated retelling of the holiday classic that starts with a victorian performance of the charles dickens tale before diving into the imagination of one of the children in the audience, taking the story to a darker fantasy realm. Simon russell beale, siân phillips, carey mulligan, daniel kaluuya, andy serkis, martin freeman and leslie caron star.  “an enthralling and moving experience” ★★★★ guardian “perfectly pitched between film and theatre… carey mulligan has a voice to die for” mark kermode bbc radio 5 live kermode and mayo film review “magnificent” ★★★★★ dave on film
