If you're unfamiliar with this 1966 cartoon classic, it's about a grumpy hermit (a fuzzy green monster) who hatches a plan to steal Christmas from the Who's of Whoville.
This short but sweet cartoon is narrated by Boris Karloff, who also voiced the Scrooge like character. His tones fit in perfectly with the offbeat world, first seen in the children's book of the same name by Dr. Seuss.
The animation is quaint and appealing, and it's narrated like a clever poem, often with rhyming slang. The result is linguistic genius. The Grinch song is the highlight but fair warning, you might have the lyrics stuck in your head for days! People wrongly assumed 'You're A Mean One Mr Grinch' was being sung by Boris Karloff, but he couldn't sing. It was actually performed by Thurl Ravenscroft.
Brimming with imagination and energy, this is the perfect antidote for those who don't feel like celebrating this year. Let the Grinch be your guide.
