Movie Reviews of The Diary of Anne Frank

Movie Review: Great historical movie!
Summary: 5 Stars

I watched this as a kid with my parents. THIS IS A TRUE STORY of the MOST FAMOUS JEW put to death by Hitler in WWII. The movie shows the "blossoming" of a pre-teen girl into a 16 yr old young woman. Millie Perkins and the rest of the cast brought this to life and meaning that we all can understand. The story ends as her family is found and taken to the prison camps, so you don't see that part of history. The end is a "verbal review" of what happened during that time by Mr. Frank as he discovers her "diary" back in the loft where the families existed for 3 years before being found by Nazis.

Heart wrenching but endearing. I have watched this over and over. Those people wishing to "delete" the holacaust from history should watch this movie and actually READ the diary!

Summary of The Diary of Anne Frank

A diary discovered in the attic of an Amsterdam factory reveals the plight of a jewish refugee family that lived there in hiding for two years during the Nazi occupation.

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. Van Daan. 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. Beautifully shot by cinematographer William C. Mellor, and written by Frances Goodrich and Albert Hackett from their stage production. --Tom Keogh
