Annie (1982)
From Amazon:
Charmless and dull, this adaptation of the Broadway hit stars Aileen Quinn as the depression-era moppet, Albert Finney as Daddy Warbucks, Carol Burnett as the cruel headmistress at an orphanage, and Tim Curry as a villain. The film never gets its legs, and there is no sense of setting; it's almost as if the whole thing is happening in a void. John Huston nominally directed--no doubt to make money between his smaller, cheaper masterpieces--but one would have thought he would invest something of himself in here. --Tom Keogh (read more)

This is how you adapt a Broadway show to screen!
Carol Burnett, Tim Curry and Bernadette Peters are brilliant as the villains of this story about an orphan adopted by a millionaire. Burnett sings 'Little Girls' like every nightmare b*tch mother combined into one gin bathtub of an over-sexed vixen. She is magic.
