Annie (1982), directed by John Huston, is a musical film adaptation of the hit Broadway show, itself based on the comic strip Little Orphan Annie. Set during the Great Depression, it follows the spirited orphan Annie, who dreams of a better life beyond the walls of Miss Hannigan’s harsh orphanage. Her fortunes change when billionaire Oliver “Daddy” Warbucks takes her in, leading to a heartwarming story of resilience, hope, and belonging. The film blends comedy, drama, and spectacle, with larger-than-life characters and lavish production numbers.

The soundtrack is central to the film’s appeal, featuring Charles Strouse and Martin Charnin’s memorable songs from the stage musical. Classics like “Tomorrow” and “It’s the Hard-Knock Life” became cultural touchstones, balancing Annie’s optimism with the grit of her world. The film version introduced new arrangements and additional songs, adding to its musical identity. With its mix of show-stopping ensemble pieces and heartfelt ballads, the Annie soundtrack has remained one of the most beloved in the movie musical tradition.
