...Hansel and Gretel for Disney's new cable station in the same year as Vincent, Burton was then allowed to develop and direct "Frankenweenie", a 25-minute film that served as a precursor for all of Burton's work to come. In the short feature, ten-year-old suburbanite Victor Frankenstein (Barret Oliver of Neverending Story fame) reanimates his dead dog, Sparky. Filmed in black-and-white, with make-up on Sparky complete with little neck bolts and stitches, "Frankenweenie" was a modest success for the filmmaker that eventually opened the door for his first feature film...

Aren't kids supposed to be tougher now, with all the video games and rap lyrics? Then why is Kathy Bates playing such an unscary Miss Hannigan, and Victor Garber such a cuddly Daddy Warbucks? Kids who made it through The Lion King could surely have handled the dark side of Annie, here expurgated and more treacly than necessary. Still, it's a big production with good Broadway singers belting out catchy songs. In the end, it's hard to say anything bad about Annie (or Annie, Alicia Morton). It's just so darn cute...
