Catching Up With... Aileen Quinn, 30 years after 'Annie'
From the article:
"Aileen Quinn was at a commercial audition in Los Angeles recently when the casting director approached her and said, "Okay, so Annie, you're in the room next." Quinn playfully called him out on it with a chiding "You did not just say that." The man didn't immediately realize his error, but then made a face, like, "Oops, I slipped." It's an honest mistake that Quinn has become accustomed to, since for a generation of moviegoers, Quinn is Annie, the adorable red-headed orphan from the 1982 movie that co-starred Albert Finney and Carol Burnett. With the film receiving a 30th anniversary Blu-ray today and a Broadway revival in the works this month, another generation of fans is due to fall in love with the show's feisty heroine and classic music."
