The Diary of Anne Frank

I was very pleased with this purchase! it was a great movie, at a great price, and it came very fast! If You have'nt seen this movie I really recommend it! I just returned from Amsterdam And I visited the Anne Frank home! and the movie had it exactly right! It's very sad the way they had to live! October 4, 2008

Remarkable

This is one of those films that all humanity should see, it is remarkable, penetrating and soul wrenching. I not only recommend the film, but the historical presentation within, as it will stir the soul of the viewer to tears. The acting, writing, dialogue, and production of the film will impact any viewer, as it was all marvelously choreographed. This is also a very serious film, with intent to stir, and that with truthful and sincere intent, a viewer should be prepared for that kind of context. The film also stays fairly true to the Diary, as well as to the outside circumstances relative to the time and political era. August 1, 2008

Original "Anne Frank" film versus subsequent remake

The original black & white version better depicts the then prevailing
mood and atmospheer in The Netherlands of that time. The sounds and
visions of what was happening on the outside adds to a better under-
standing of the constant fear of detection experienced by these
persecuted human beings hidden in that Amsterdam attic.
The somber and menacing atmospheer of those days is better portrayed
in black and white for the same reason Steven Spielberg decided to
do his film "Schindler's List" in black & white. July 15, 2008

SAD BUT TRUE?

The wife loves this movie: However I find it depressing and unbelivable. How could Annes family get caught in Nazi Holland when most of the neighboors were runing for their lives to America? The DVD is a Top quality transfer from 35mm film. June 2, 2008

Anne Frank

The Diary of Anne Frank is a powerful example of what happens when evil people are allowed to go unchecked. It is a must see for all students. May 25, 2008
