These days, Mr. Scrooge walks the cobblestoned streets of Boston

Marshall Street, that little bit of ye olde Boston behind the Union Oyster House, is blocked off again today for filming of "Spirited," a retelling of "A Christmas Carol" with Ryan Reynolds, Will Ferrell and Octavia Spencer. Reynolds was last in town a couple years ago to film "Free Guy" - a movie in which he played a video-game character.
