Annie (Widescreen Edition)

I love the movie Annie this is wonderful brings back good memories when I was a young child, I don’t think this movie will ever get old. I absolutely love love love it highly recommend it especially if you haven’t seen it before.

Favorite family movie

Such a wonderful movie.

Great family friendly movie! Especially since it is one of the classic musical movies. Amazon Prime made it easy to watch.

No offense meant to people who vividly remember the 70's and 80's lol!People always dunk on this performance of Annie, saying it's cringey or annoying. This is a classic musical, the way musicals used to be - I don't mean that in a "nowadays everything is computers! Electricity is bad!" way, I just mean that this is the style of musical that you used to see.Suspend your disbelief! Let yourself experience simple pleasures and meet media on its own level.You can tell these were stage performers. Scenes are sparsely edited long shots. It's all practical effects and choreography. The jokes are just goofy, like Mr. Warbucks announcing that he only kind of likes the Mona Lisa, so he'll hang it in the bathroom, or Grace casually deciding Annie should get tennis lessons from a famous tennis player.I love the casting choices. Aileen Quinn brings a very multifaceted energy to the character that I love. Annie's a very smart kid, but she's still a kid! There's an innocence that often gets lost with precocious child characters in movies, and Aileen maintained the different layers of the character: wise at times, sarcastic at times, duplicitous when necessary, kind and unassuming, sometimes brave and other times frightened of the dark and of heights.And Carol Burnett is very good at acting drunk, which can't be said about a lot more actors than you'd think lol. She's funny, which is expected, but her horror when Annie is in true danger felt raw and real.I only have two real complaints: 1. There's some generation-specific racism - a mystical black dude with a turban who has psychic powers (?) and an east Asian guy who only does fancy karate dancing. There wasn't anything meant by it at the time, but we clearly know better now.And 2. you can tell it was the Reagan era lol. I know the stage play came out in 1977, a couple years before he was elected, but wow. Heavyhanded is insufficient to describe its commentary about the US economy lmao.I grew up watching this movie and I find it really charming, though.

I Watched Annie & LOVED it ! Carol Burnett was Hysterical playing ! U FELT Sorry the Girls BUT U ALSO Loved Miss Hannigan ! The dancing was Vibrant !

Tomorrow tomorrow I love you tomorrow! One of my favorites as a kid. Lots of good little songs everybody should know at least one . Don't forget Miss Hannigan ...!

Love this movie
