The British festive comedy Merry Christmas Aubrey Flint, directed by Jack Spring, has been released in UK cinemas. The film stars John Bradley as Aubrey Flint, a man who avoids the holiday season due to childhood isolation. Following a legal altercation, Aubrey is sentenced to community service at a struggling retirement home, where he helps residents produce a play. The story is described as a modern twist on themes from Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol.

The production features an ensemble cast including Celia Imrie, Richard E. Grant, Kiell Smith-Bynoe, Adjoa Andoh, and Karl Pilkington, with Jim Broadbent providing the voice of Charles Dickens. In conjunction with the release, care home provider Care UK has partnered with production companies Shush Films and SUMS to screen the movie in its homes to promote inclusion and combat loneliness among the elderly.
