Where's Annie?

Life After Tomorrow, says it all.

"Once the curtain fell, many found it could be a hard-knock-life, fraught with out-of-control stage mothers, separation anxiety and, worst of all, prepubescent growth spurts that could find the moppets being replaced by smaller, younger editions just waiting in the wings. While their lives have moved on, the impact of the experience remains," press release


This movie is genius. It is a documentary of all the girls from Annie the musical.

This is just a lot of fun, housewives and struggling actors and now stage mothers, all gather around to DISH about growing up in the 70's on Broadway and in the HIT SHOW ANNIE!


It's like if they did a THS on Elizabeth Berkley, it's just a little sad.

I mean see this movie, it is intersting to see the outcome of the legendary musicals cast.

If you like campy, musical theatre, biographies, autobiographies, B+ documentaries with pretty much some nobodies as the cast, molly ringwald, sarah jessica parker, and little red dresses with white accents and taps shoes, THEN you will probably sort of like this movie.

One thing that I love/ laugh/cry/ yell/ question? about this movie is that ANDREA McARDLE, the Tony Award Nominee for her portrayal as ANNIE, isn't in the movie.

I have two questions:

1) Andrea, what were you doing that was too important to do an interview for a documentary about the one thing that has made you a star?

2) I want to repeat question number one. WHAT???

I don't get it, wouldn't that be one of the first things as a film maker to make sure that you can get the interview with the original lead of the musical that you are going to talk about for an hour and a half.

IDK, see it on one of those days where you want to feel nostalgic but also want a little laugh at the expense of others. LIFE AFTER TOMORROW is just that movie, well at least top 5.

IF ANYTHING THIS MOVIE IS DISHY AND THAT'S ALL THAT MATTERS, RIGHT?
