What's the Story?
In this film version of the Broadway musical about the parentless Depression-era moppet, spunky red-haired Annie (Aileen Quinn) suffers indignities from tough orphanage supervisor Miss Hannigan (Carol Burnett). Ever hopeful Annie dreams of the day her parents arrive to retrieve her, often singing songs and dancing to the delight of the other orphan girls. Hoping to boost his approval rating with local voters, rich politician Oliver Warbucks (Albert Finney) takes Annie in for a week at his swanky Manhattan mansion. Annie wins her new caretakers over, but Miss Hannigan and her cronies Lily (Bernadette Peters) and Rooster (Tim Curry) see an opportunity to increase their cash flow.
What Parents Need to Know
Parents need to know that there are some scenes of children being treated badly, and a scary sequence at the end in which Annie is in great danger. The overall message, however, is positive and loving. Families can talk about the Depression, and even Roosevelt and the New Deal. And of course the catchy tunes lend themselves to a singalong.
