Annie

Based on one of the most popular comic strips of all time and adapted from the smash Broadway musical, ANNIE is set in Depression-era New York City, where a spunky little girl (Aileen Quinn) lives in an orphanage run by the boozy, tyrannical Miss Hannigan (Carol Burnett). Annie’s hopes soar when multigazillionaire Oliver Warbucks (Albert Finney) decides to take in an orphan for a week to ‘upgrade his image.’ Warbucks adopts the girl, but his search for Annie’s missing parents turns up only the villainous Rooster (Tim Curry) and his venal girlfriend, Lily (Bernadette Peters), who conspire with Miss Hannigan to relieve Warbucks of both the girl and a hefty reward.

1982, 130 Minutes, PG, Directed by John Huston

  • ''Annie'' knocks itself out trying to give the audience its money's worth. They don't build movies like this anymore."

    - Vincent Canby, THE NEW YORK TIMES
  • "Aileen Quinn makes a perfect Annie, recalling Shirley Temple with her room-lighting smile and perky manner."

    - Bob Thomas, ASSOCIATED PRESS
  • "What makes "Annie" so winning is that, while it could have easily been just another cutesy-poo Hollywood musical, it happens to be as gritty, genial and boisterous as little Annie herself."

    - Kathleen Carroll, NEW YORK DAILY NEWS
  • "This charming musical based on the comic strip character Little Orphan Annie features many memorable songs and pleasant dance numbers."
