Enjoy Annie, George.

Thanks, John. I was in a local production back in the '90s and really had a good time.

There is a live audience, but it sounds "enhanced."

George · « **Reply #185 on:** December 02, 2021, 08:59:36 PM »

The arrangement and choreography for "Hard-Knock Life" are quite modern.

George · « **Reply #186 on:** December 02, 2021, 09:00:34 PM »

The kids perform the song very well.

You bet they enhance the audience.

Finished with my viewing.

I have a four-day weekend. And there’s too much planned.

What a coincidence. I, too, have a four-day weekend, followed by a 5-day week, and then another weekend.

Sadly, my weekend isn't planned A dinner, sure, but....unless i make my own kind of music, I won't be singing any kind of song.

(I just stopped back in after a visit to the FilmScoreMonthly Messageboard). Night, again.

Harry Connick, Jr., is wearing a bald wig.

There was a big tap dance during "NYC" that was pretty cool.

George · « **Reply #192 on:** December 02, 2021, 09:52:24 PM »

There's a new song, a duet for Miss Hannigan and Warbucks called "Sign," where Warbucks goes to the orphanage to tell Miss Hannigan that he's going to adopt Annie and she needs to "Sign" some papers for him to be able to adopt Annie.

George · « **Reply #193 on:** December 02, 2021, 10:05:46 PM »

Spoo! I didn't realize that "Sign" was written for the original movie...it's not a new song.

George · « **Reply #194 on:** December 02, 2021, 10:07:25 PM »

They also added "We Got Annie," also from the movie, but which I just found out was written for and cut from the original show.

They should have done the SHOW without all the BS.

bk · « **Reply #196 on:** December 02, 2021, 10:10:51 PM »

Why I oughta...

I had a piece of cherry pie even though I said I wouldn't - now I'm regretting it.

Other than the two added songs, they seem to he following the show order.

George · « **Reply #200 on:** December 02, 2021, 10:19:34 PM »

So far (I started watching late, so now I'm up to "You're Never Fully Dressed Without a Smile"), the only song that they've skipped is "You Won't Be an Orphan for Long."

George · « **Reply #201 on:** December 02, 2021, 10:33:15 PM »

Harry played the piano a little bit while singing "Something Was Missing."

George · « **Reply #202 on:** December 02, 2021, 10:35:58 PM »

Annie said, "Gee Mr. Warbucks. You play the piano?" And he says, "Not if you ask my good friend George Gershwin."

Gratuitous Post #203!

George · « **Reply #204 on:** December 02, 2021, 11:09:54 PM »

Well, that was weird. Miss Hannigan didn't get arrested with Rooster and Lily! She and the other orphans rushed in just as the "Mudges" were about to take Annie, and squeeled on Rooster and Lily.

George · « **Reply #205 on:** December 02, 2021, 11:12:28 PM »

Then Annie said that they shouldn't arrest Miss Hannigan because she tried to save Annie, so Warbucks asked President Hoover to make Miss Hannigan the first worker in his New Deal to put unemployed workers to work...since the orphanage is now closed and she's one of the 5 million unemployed.

George · « **Reply #206 on:** December 02, 2021, 11:14:06 PM »

I don't know why they'd make that change, unless they wanted to keep it open for one of the sequels that never really went anywhere.

George · « **Reply #207 on:** December 02, 2021, 11:16:12 PM »

Anyway, even with all that said, I really did enjoy it.

George · « **Reply #208 on:** December 02, 2021, 11:19:30 PM »

The TV soundtrack won't be released until January 21 and I plan to get it.

George · « **Reply #209 on:** December 02, 2021, 11:20:35 PM »

I did not get the soundtrack to the movie remake with Jamie Foxx.
