		Annelies Marie "Anne" Frank (June 12, 1929 - March 1945) was a Jewish girl who wrote a diary while hiding with her family from the Nazis in Amsterdam during World War II.
		During those years Anne wrote her diary, describing with considerable talent her fears of living in hiding for years, the awakening feelings for Peter, the conflicts with her parents, and her aspirations to become a writer.
		In 1956 Frank's diary was made into a play that won the Pulitzer Prize, in 1959 it was made into a motion picture; see: The Diary of Anne Frank (film), in 1997 it was made into a Broadway play with added material from the original diaries.

	The Diary of Anne Frank (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		George Steven's film of the book and Pulitzer Prize winning play that would give a human face to the Holocaust is a brilliant achievement in film-making, taking a story that is, of course, by nature, claustrophobic and transforming it into a soaring emotional experience.
		The Diary of Anne Frank is the true story of the 13 year old Holland youth who would, along with her family and a few others, spend two years in hiding in the attic of a spice factory in Amsterdam to escape the Nazis.
		But one of the miracles of the film is that somehow Stevens gets the viewer to forget the fate of the characters as we become absorbed in their lives and their plight; despite already knowing the ending, the arrival of the Nazis still never fails to tear at the heart.

		Frank's diary is at once a candid self-portrait, a portrayal of domestic life, an account of people threatened with imminent death, a depiction of experiences and problems common to young adults, and an examination of universal moral issues.
		Life in the annex, a common concern in her diary entries, was strained by quarrels and tensions arising from the anxiety inherent in the situation, the frustrations of a monotonous, restrictive life, and personality clashes.
		Because Frank's diary was not written as creative literature, and because of the extraordinary circumstances of the author's life, critics most commonly discuss the human and historical importance of the work rather than its aesthetic or structural elements.

	DVD Savant Review: The Diary of Anne Frank
		Anne Frank's heartbreaking diary communicates the feelings of an individual child's hopes and fears, all crushed under powerful forces that can't be opposed.
		I think it does a fine job showing what basic human decency is. Anne Frank persists in believing that people are good, an amazing conclusion given her experience; most stories with this kind of subject material must by necessity concentrate on evil deeds, with the usual result that we distrust people more than ever.
		The docu is honest enough to suggest that it's altogether possible that the details in Frank's diary might not all be true, especially the part about the older dentist she has to share her room with.

		She gives Anne an air of quiet coquettishness that doesn’t match the girl we saw in the first half.
		An inconsistent film, parts of it come across as well as one could hope, but partially due to erratic pacing and an inappropriately cast lead actress, other elements undercut the experience.
		The program covers the diary’s path to publication and other media, notes about George Stevens’ activities in WWII and how they influenced him, casting, issues connected to the film production, and historical information about the Frank family and the era.

		When she was taken from her family's hiding place and her diary abandoned in a pile of papers stuffed in a briefcase, she had no idea that her effort to communicate her life and her spirit to others would ever be realized.
		When she is captured, her diary is abandoned and she lives the rest of her life with no hope that her diary will ever be read by another.
		Also, Anne Frank believed until her death that her father Otto was executed immediately upon arrival at Auschwitz because he was 55 years old--much older than the acceptable range for slave labor.

		Anne's father was the key to publication and it would be some time before he could come to terms with Anne's incredibly honest account of her developing sexuality and those raw comments on her mother, Edith.

	The Diary of Anne Frank, a CurtainUp review
		The Diary Anne Frank used to record her thoughts was given to her by her father for her 13th birthday a month before they went into hiding.
		The fact that Otto Frank eliminated diary passages in which Anne expressed anger and frustration at her mother as well as some sexual references was not initially controversial--partly because this fit into the thinking of the times and partly because the extent of the cuts only came to light later.
		A 1981 a report of the DutchState Forensic Science Laboratory confirmed "that both versions of the diary of Anne Frank were written by her in the years 1942 to 1944." The report added that "despite corrections and omissions" (in the published version of the diaries) that it did indeed contain "the essence" of Anne's writings.

		George Stevens' life-altering experience of witnessing the death camps after WWII was doubtless responsible for his desire to adapt the famed diary of the teenaged Jewish girl, played by Millie Perkins.
		Despite their precarious situation, and the sense of claustrophobia created by having to live together in such crowded conditions, covering the windows during the day, and keeping as quiet as possible at all times, the families carry on as best they can.
		For Anne, her platonic romance with Peter Van Daan (Richard Beymer), the attractive son of often voluble parents, makes the experience more bearable than it is for the adults, whose sense of foreboding is palpable.

	The Diary of Anne Frank
		George Stevens (Giant) directed this 1959 film adaptation of the hit play based on the writings of Anne Frank, the Jewish girl from Amsterdam who hid in an attic with her family and others during the Nazi occupation.
		As Anne, Millie Perkins is something of a milky eyed enigma and--in retrospect--too old for the part; but she is surrounded by an outstanding cast, including Joseph Schildkraut as Anne's patient father, Ed Wynn as a cranky dentist who moves into Anne's "room," and Shelley Winters as the loud Mrs.
		Stevens turns the many overlapping dramas of the caged characters into the foundation of Anne's growth as a young woman, ready for life and love just at the moment the dream comes to an end.
