Interesting facts

  • Based on: A Christmas Carol

Chasing Christmas is a 2005 contemporary re-telling of the 1843 Charles Dickens novella A Christmas Carol. This ABC Family film, written by Todd Berger and directed by Ron Oliver, stars Tom Arnold as Jack Cameron, who is a man with a Scrooge-type personality. He is stuck with his wife, whom he caught with another man at their daughter's Christmas play. The sad events of his life, including his wife's infidelity, led him to hate Christmas. This prompted the Ghost of Christmas Past and Ghost of Christmas Present to show Jack what Christmas is all about, but Christmas Past wanted to stay in the past, and Jack and Christmas Present ended up on an adventure to put Christmas Past back on track.
