How The Grinch Stole Christmas is Dr. Seuss' creation, and it comes to life with Anthony Hopkin's narration. It's a tale of town filled with folks known as Whos, who have quirky Who snouts, and rather large Who shoes. No Who could be cheerier than around Christmas time, when Whoville is decorated absolutely sublime. But high above Whoville on a mountain top, lived the Grinch who wanted to have Christmas stop. Now the Grinch is not heartless, but his heart is too teeny, so he's a grouchy cheer-monger, Who-hating meanie. But there's one Who in Whoville, named Cindy Lou Who, who can save all of Whoville, and that nasty Grinch too. Whoville is sure to have a Christmas that's Merry, and yes, in that Grinch suit, is the one-and-only Jim Carrey. (Suzanne Hodges)
