Movie Reviews of Anne Frank - The Whole Story
Movie Review: inspiring movie
Summary: 5 Stars
I think this movie was very inspiring. I wish I had the guts that the actors and actresses of this movie had. The young lady who played Anne was so convincing I caught myself thinking she was really Anne. I was really pulled into this movie and touched by it from beginning to end. I am a teacher for students with learning disabilities, this movie was a nice match to my version of the book (I edited the book for time purposes). The students were able to understand the book better because they were able to see it on tv and not just listen. Of course I did have to edit some scences in the concentration camp. It would have been helpful if the abstract by the company would mention the section of nudity in the movie. Thankfully I had read a previous review and watched the movie first.
Summary of Anne Frank - The Whole Story
Anne Frank: The Whole Story delivers exactly what it promises: the incredibly moving complete story of Anne Frank, going beyond what the Jewish teenage girl wrote in her widely read diary. Anne, along with her family and friends of her family, hid in a secret annex behind her father's office in Amsterdam during the Nazi occupation of Holland. She dutifully kept a diary, which became a worldwide bestseller when her father published it in the 1950s. The story has been adapted for television and movies before, but this version, which played on ABC television, moves beyond what Anne wrote, meeting up with the Frank family before Anne receives her diary, and following her past the diary's last entries into Auschwitz and Birkenau. Hannah Taylor Gordon is a superb Anne, bringing to life the multifaceted girl, in turns intelligent, dreamy, creative, spoiled, and bratty, a girl like any other except that Anne is a Jew in Nazi-occupied Holland. The only one who outshines Gordon is Ben Kingsley as Anne's father, Otto Frank. His quiet performance is extraordinarily powerful; as he watches his family slip away, it is impossible not to feel his grief. This brave film is difficult in parts to watch--the concentration camp scenes are brutal--but this is a remarkable adaptation of Anne's life, and it is a film to be shared and discussed and remembered. --Jenny BrownBen Kingsley, Brenda Blethyn, and Hannah Taylor Gordon star in the stirring tale of one of the most influential young women of the 20th century. Based on Melissa Muller's critically acclaimed book, ANNE FRANK goes beyond the story you already know and paints the true portrait of Anne both before and after she went into hiding. Get to know the high-spirited and popular girl before the war, and experience the challenges of the brave people who risked their lives trying to keep her safe. ANNE FRANK also explores the enduring mystery of who betrayed the Frank family and reveals what happened next.
