Annesley made her feature film debut as a teenager, with the leading role of Abigail Kirk in the 1986 Australian film Playing Beatie Bow. A time travel drama based on the novel by Ruth Park and directed by Donald Crombie, it was a failure at the box-office despite a number of positive reviews of the film and Annesley's performance. The film proved more popular on video release.{{cite web|url=http://www.ozmovies.com.au/movie/playing-beatie-bow|title= Playing Beatie Bow}} at Oz Movies- Accessed 2016-1-5Greg Kerr, "Playing Beatie Bow", Australian Film 1978–1992, Oxford Uni Press, 1993 p203
