There is a scene where Miss Hannigan is listening to a romance thing on the radio. The man saying "I love you, I love you" is that of John Huston, the director.  The rights for Annie were sold in '78 for $9.5 million: That's more than any other movie! Aileen Quinn won the Razzie Award for Worst Actress, but she was only 11! How horrible! The supervising editor, Margaret Booth, was also the original editor for "Camille", the movie that Annie, Grace and Oliver go see at the Radio City Music Hall. There are many interesting differences between the musical Annie and the movie version. The ending of the play is much different that the movie. Instead of a dramatic chase, the play ends at christmas time at Warbucks' mansion. Warbucks was going to adopt Annie until the Mudge's came along. However, they are found out to be fakes and arrested just in time for christmas and for Warbucks to adopt Annie. Also, the songs "Dumb Dog", "We got Annie", "Let's go to the movies", and the song that Hannigan sings to Warbucks are not from the original stage show. Annie sings "Tomorrow" to Sandy, instead of "Dumb Dog". Instead of "We got Annie", the mansion staff sing a rousing version of "I don't need anything but you". The stage version of "Let's go to the movies" is a song called "N.Y.C", all about Warbucks, Grace and Annie exploring the sights and sounds of New York City. And as for the song between Warbucks and Hannigan, there is no such exchange in the show, as Grace is the one who deals with Hannigan directly. There are many scenes and musical numbers which are not included in the movie version at all. One of which is a scene called "Hooverville" where down-and-out people living under the 59th-Street-Bridge sing an angry yet amusing song about how Herbert Hoover and the depression is the cause of their poverty. It takes place just after Annie sings "Tomorrow" to Sandy, and when she is brought back to Hannigan's orphanage. -Thanks to DeeFDR is played by a young(er) Edward Herrmann, more notable for playing Rory Gilmore's grandfather Richard in "Gilmore Girls"! -Thanks to Mike OverallOne of the dancers was played by actress Martika, who went on to have a hit song with "Martika's Kitchen" and also appeared "Breakin' 2" in the Disney Channel's "Kids Incorporated". -Thanks to Evi DobrilaOne of my absolute favorite female stars Meredith Salenger has her first role in this movie, she was twelve at the time. -Thanks to Max JanssonThe orphan, Cindy, who sings, "Rover! Why not think it over?!" is a young Amanda Peterson, who went on to star opposite Patrick Dempsey in "Can't Buy Me Love." -Thanks to Aaron Peeples« Click here to add some Annie trivia Rediscover your favorites!

 Featured Movie Location: Daddy Warbuck's townhouseWanna see the real life filming location used for Daddy Warbuck's townhouse in the movie? These scenes were actually shot at Monmouth University Administration Building, located in West Long Branch, New Jersey. [New! Show Google Map] Annie was also filmed at locations in Berkshires, Massachusetts, USA. The bridge she climbs when she runs away from the people that claim to be her parents is in Kearny, NJ. It is a train bridge that is not in use as far as I know. It is located off Riverside Ave. over the Passaic River near Clay St. [Thanks to Damien] The town of Hope, NJ was the location for Annie (at the beginning of thie film) to walk up to two old gas pumps where a dog was sitting. I believe that one of the antique gas pumps are still there and the other one is missing. Hope is near Blairstown, NJ. The Diner is still in Blairstown, but just recently went through remodeling and it's quite a bit larger than what was in the movie. It still has the original nostalgic area, but they have a larger seating area now and is very charming. [Thanks to Dean] Can you help? Do you know any of the (or any other) filming locations used for Annie? [Please send them in] | |||||||||||||||||||||||
