Skinflint: A Country Christmas Carol

Just when I thought I was done with the 1970s adaptations, I learned there was one more. This TV movie is so obscure that it only aired once and only exists in a home recording. Skinflint: A Country Christmas Carol tells the story of Cyrus Flint, a 1970s bank manager (played by Hoyt Axton) who gets a visit from some Christmas ghosts and hears a lot of country music. Also starring Mel Tillis, Lynn Anderson, Martha Raye, Dottie West, The Statler Brothers, and many more.
