Movie
description |
With
the
talents
of
Chuck
Jones,
Boris
Karloff,
and
Dr.
Seuss
combined,
there
was
almost
no
way
this
could
be
anything
but
an
instant
classic.
Watched
regularly
every
holiday
season
and
beloved
by
children
and
cynical
adults
alike,
this
animated
gem
is
just
that
and
more.
Boris
Karloff
narrates
and
stars
as
the
odious
Mr.
Grinch,
the
sinister
green
monster
who
plots
to
steal
all
the
Christmas
presents
in
the
town
of
Whoville.
All
goes
well
with
his
dastardly
plan
until
little
Cindy
Loo
Who
(who
was
no
more
than
two)
gums
up
the
works
with
her
innocent
Christmas
spirit.
Jones
directed,
with
Karloff
supplying
the
sweetly
sinister
narration
and
voice
of
the
Grinch.
The
story
is
from
the
book
by
Dr.
Seuss.
Thurl
Ravenscroft
(of
"Tony
the
Tiger"
breakfast
commercial
fame)
provides
the
memorable
bass
singing
voice
for
the
tune
"You're
a
Mean
One,
Mister
Grinch."
Filled
with
close
attention
to
comic
detail,
memorable
characterizations,
and
delightful
wordplay,
this
is
essential
holiday
viewing
for
the
whole
family.
