Annie 1982: My Hollywood Adventure With Aileen Quinn

[@s.j.johnson1961]

She was the cutest Annie...very sweet and genuine.

[@imahotmess872]

literally after she said “Albert Finney is a really good actor and a very nice man just look into his eyes and you’ll know exactly how to say your lines.”, i almost cried what a good mom :’)

[@nicolerohde288]

Aileen Quinn is an absolute class act. Hollywood needs more stars like her. Love her and this movie.

[@storybellz]

What a sweetheart she is!! Just a total sweetheart- even as a grown woman. There is something very wholesome and classy about her adult self. She reminds me of Shirley Temple, when Shirley grew up. I am smitten! And impressed.

[@cadenceloo4320]

This movie will always be a classic.. I hope that future generations will get to see this beautiful work of Annie It's so sad that Albert Finney has passed on but it's inevitable.. He was such a great actor.

There’s an NBC production coming in December

[@michaeljordan6008]

Best Annie ever.

[@kaylalezabeth7175]

Honestly, I prefer the Wonderful World of Disney's version. But, that's probably because I fell in love with it before I saw this version.

My favorite movie as a kid. I was 4 when it was filmed but I watched it for a long time. Also, RIP Ann Reinking ... She wasn't mentioned but I loved her character. 💔

[@benschaeffer8102]

Ann Reinking was also a class act, she was SUCH an amazing dancer.

Dear Aileen, you have no idea how much "Annie" moved me back in '82! Even now at 50 "Maybe" and Carol Burnett are lenses I view the world through. Many thanks!

My 3 year old has been watching Annie since she was 2. Recently we found a DVD copy to play in the car and she watches this over and over in the car. We love singing the songs and makes the car ride fun ❤❤❤

[@girlwiththeblueglasses8284]

I remember watching this when I was very very small, and dreaming of being Annie. I’d run around my room acting it out. Now I’m 17, and sitting my A-Level in Drama to pursue my dream of being a musical theatre actress. When everyone told me I shouldn’t do it, thank you Aileen, for helping me believe in myself.❤️❤️

You were amazing in Annie. It’s one of my favourite movies.

I loved this movie as a kid! And I still believe it has one of the best soundtracks of all time.

[@ginether6174]

maybe was my favorite as well but as of lately it’s been the finale song got me in a choke hold

[@tamiamack1688]

who else got chills from the intro🥲\/

[@bethanygates864]

Maybe was my favorite song too, and I was probably one of your biggest fans! I saw the movie so many times, and owned two dresses, the wig, books, tons of Annie toys, and even the Aileen Quin album. I enlisted neighbor kids to play parts in the play I was making (I had the play book too). Annie was the sweetest movie, and you were the reason. They were so lucky to find the perfect Annie. Thanks for the joy you brought to my childhood!

[@jillianvicic3282]

I do have her own wig to and I her own movie too and I got her dress it is red

[@marycook1644]

I loved seeing you and how adorable you still are !! My daughter and I so enjoyed Annie . You and the entire cast were incredible !! I was heart broken when Daddy Warbucks passed away . I even paid a friend of mine to make my daughter (who is now 46 ) the bloomer outfit you wore from an Annie pattern . It was so cute on her . Thank you so !! 🚁 💰 🛍 📨

我家3個小毛，都是愛看这个musical 成長的。Thankful for making such a good production ！

[@hannahboldewijn]

such a good actor! She truly was 1 in a billion!

[@graffitiwomen]

I love, love, LOVE this movie! I was 6 when it came out and eventually, my Mom got so *tired* of only listening to "Annie" that she hid it! I found it about a year later and was so confused...as a 45 yr old, I understand, Annie every day, and I mean every day or time we got in the car, must have been exhausting after a while! This movie still has such a special place in my heart! I'm thankful for this movie!

[@ElleCee62978]

I was obsessed with Annie when I was 4. I saw the movie and it opened a world for me. I even nicknamed my newborn sister Molly…. And it stuck. Because of Annie, I started singing, dancing, and acting. I did all three for 20+ years of my life.

[@leannemartin321]

That was GREAT!!! Loved it!!! Even though it was short it still was GREAT!!! Loved watching Annie the movie!! And the Broadway musical Annie!! Loved it all!! Seen it so many times!!! Just loved it!!

Went to see this movie as a kid back in 82'. The song, Tomorrow, will ALWAYS be dear to me. Looking for Mr. Geoffrey Holder led me to this video, I love him and miss his grand presence. ❤️ Movie going has changed drastically, yet I treasure those moments of when movies were worth seeing in the theater and popcorn 🍿 and soda weren't $10 bucks a pop.😏 Yes, the Sun will come out tomorrow, and that's one of the beauties of Life. And.....the dialog in that "locket scene" still provokes a lot of emotion in me. 😢 #BrilliantActing #LaughterAndTearsForever

[@pattibrooks1907]

Loved the 1977 play and the 1982 version of Annie !

[@manuelorozco7760]

I haven’t been overdue to see the original stage version since I finished high school.

[@krizan1]

I used to watch this a lot as a kid. I literally watched it the other day for the first time in over 20 years and half the film I had completely forgotten. Almost everything up until Annie meets Mr. Warbucks (and the song 'I think I'm gonna like it here") and then finale came flooding back. 😁 Still enjoyed it though.

[@cxffee_axxict7627]

Jeez, I was only 3 when this came out, but I still have a memory of watching it on a recorded VHS with Robin William's Popeye and Disney's The Black Hole on it. And it's a cool memory as I can remember the old configuration of my house that miss so much. Only through old pictures am I able to reminisce so vividly. "Old thoughts return, in great waves of nostalgia."

[@laurencesachs4468]

I just came across this on KZbin. The estate is part of what was then Monmouth College currently Monmouth University. Annie was filmed there a year before my freshmen year there. The estate was called Wilson Hall (Shadow Lawn) and is on the national register of historic places. I had several classes in that building. It has been used countless times for either TV shows or TV and print ads. Truth be told no one ever really lived there for very long it was summer estate ad eh depression costs it then owners quite a bit to maintain it. The building was actually the second estate's first one burned down. After being a residence, it became an all girls school. Monmouth Jr college bought in the 1950s. It became to cornerstone for the colleges then new and current location. As the school grew it went from being a Jr commuting college to a four-year school with dorms and large victorian mansions which became frat houses. In the middle 1980s the college began its quest to become a university. By that time the victorian houses were mostly gone and the Shadow lawn estate was placed on the national register of historic places. The school eventually gained university sometime within five years of applying. Aileen Quinn sometime later soon, after receiving an honorary DR of Arts from Monmouth, became an adjunct professor at the school. She currently is no longer there. Just thought you would all be interested.
