The irresistible orphan of comic-strip and box office fame comes to life in this acclaimed musical production. In her search for her true parents, Annie has many adventures and encounters a number of colourful characters. The acclaimed and infectious stage musical gets the big screen treatment. Annie is a red-haired mop-top orphan (Aileen Quinn), yearning to break out of her dreary life in an orphanage run by an iron-fisted, boozy matron Miss Hannigan. But the little auburn angel manages to charm billionaire Oliver "Daddy" Warbucks (Albert Finney) into adopting her--but what she really wants is to find her real parents. With characters based on the 'Little Orphan Annie' comic strip, this feel-good film has loads of singalong songs and dance routines. Academy Award Nominations for Best Art Direction/Set Decoration and Best Original Score.
