Rhapsodies

Okay for today’s selection I’m going to drop my search for all things in Christmas cynicism and go for something completely soppy. With “It Feels Like Christmas” from the Muppet Christmas Carol. As a lover of both the Muppets and adaptations of Christmas Carol this is a favorite of mine. It is surprisingly close to the original material leaving in a lot of darker scenes that a lot of the more serious versions won’t even touch.

I’ve always liked the Ghost of Christmas present chapter the spirit is for all practical purposes a Dionysian pagan god who watches over all Christmas festivities.
