sadly this was ruined by Carroll Burnett.  Do Not get me wrong she is a great personality and comedian.  But why does she get to make the bad character a good person at the end??? This shows she does not have the ability to play a wide range of personalities.  Please do not defend her by saying that is "Carroll Burnett ... people do not want to see her as the bad guy".  She is not playing herself she is playing miss Hannigan!  Plus even when this movie came out most people who watched it would not have said "Oh no she cant play a bad guy".  Heck most who watched it do not know her.  (Today most don't even know John Wayne who was more famous).  why change the story line?
