The miserliness of the rich and the ill treatment of the poor is common in a world where greed is all too pervasive. An Apple TV+ original, “Spirited,” directed and co-written by Sean Anders, generously uses all the ingredients of Dickens’ masterly work. We see adaptations of Dickens’ morality fare every year, but “Spirited” displays some novelty.
