Annie - the Movie
So I saw this film when it was released in 81. I was 10 and it was one of my fave films at the time. I spotted it was on TV the other day so I sat down to watch it with Rhiannon (she's 7). And it was a bloody remake! Why did the bother!! LOL! I had to go out and buy the original. You just can't beat Carol Burnette as Miss Hannigan. She IS the film IMO! And I'm sad to say I still knew all the words to the songs :rolleyes:

I'm not a big fan of musicals anyway, but Annie is perhaps the one I like least, whether the movie or not. Growing up it seemed that the girls all liked Annie & the boys all liked the Three Stooges, a great gender divide. - Jake |
Carol Burnett was the ONLY good thing about that flick. :nod: Even Bernadette Peters and Tim Curry left me a bit cold, and they are usually FANTASTIC.
I liked the remake a bit more because Kathy Bates is just, well, amazing. And I love Victor Garber, too. :D |
It's a CLASSIC! I own the movie and have seen it probably a thousand times. I like Victor Garber but c'mon....nothing beats the original movie with Albert Finney, Anne Reinking, Bernadette Peters, Tim Curry and Carol Burnette :nod:

The only parts I like are the "Little Girls" and "Easy Street" numbers; those are fab. The rest...eh. On a side note, anyone remember Aileen Quinn (the girl who played Annie) starring in one of the Cannon Movie Tales, "The Frog Prince"? Helen Hunt was in it, too. I *love* the Cannon Movie Tales. :nod: :laugh: |
