Join Matt and me for Episode 135 as we take on Annie (1982), a vibrant and enduring entry in the movie musical canon. With a powerhouse cast including Carol Burnett, Albert Finney, Ann Reinking, Bernadette Peters, and Tim Curry, this adaptation of the Broadway hit brings bold choreography, memorable performances, and timeless songs like “It’s the Hard Knock Life” and “Tomorrow” to the screen.
Directed by John Huston, Annie is a strong movie musical that holds up over time. We dig into the film’s direction, its musical highlights, and the cinematic choices that make this Depression-era tale of hope and found family still resonate today.
