English A classic that cannot be absent from American television at Christmas. An animated adaptation of the famous children's book. A victory of nostalgia over true quality. ()

English I liked the live-action version a lot - I do like Jim Carrey after all, but I have to admit that even the short animated version still has a lot going for it. For example, the way the Grinch moves is beautifully drawn. And to top it all off, Boris Karloff's voice doesn't disappoint even when you can't see his face. For me, the animated version is great.
