Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
Charmless and dull, this adaptation of the Broadway hit stars Aileen Quinn as the depression-era moppet, Albert Finney as Daddy Warbucks, Carol Burnett as the cruel headmistress at an orphanage, and Tim Curry as a villain.

John Huston nominally directed--no doubt to make money between his smaller, cheaper masterpieces--but one would have thought he would invest something of himself in here. --Tom Keogh

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - makes my child happy
I have a daughter with autism and she loves it. Thank you for the prompt service.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Not buying until available in widescreen

I don't have much to comment on this item as i could not view it. When I put it in the DVD player it asks you to check your area code. There is no area code for you to check, so therefor I cannot view the film.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - We love Annie.
The dvd came very quick and was in perfect condition. Great price and will order again from amazon.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Horrible
An epic disaster. Bad acting. Poorly sung. The cast are all acting in different movies. Get the Disney tv version which is superior to this film in every way.
