Editorial Reviews

This is the autobiographical drama of a young Dutch Jewish girl hiding from the invading Nazis during World War II. Anne and her family share a claustrophobic attic with another family. Tension is often unbearable, as the people hiding know that their discovery by the enemy could lead to almost certain death at the hands of their captors. They also must contend with the Dutch Gestapo or "Green Police," who will turn them over to the Nazis if discovered. Dutch nationals risk their lives by hiding the family for two years. The group, despite the horror and crowded conditions, still find time for celebrations of Hanukkah and rejoice quietly in the small attic that has become their world. The story is told from the narrative perspective of Anne, a young girl hoping to live to womanhood. The film was nominated for several academy awards and won two for best supporting actress (Shelley Winters) and for cinematography (William Mellor). Dan Pavlides, All Movie Guide

March 11, 2008: I teach 8th grade Language Arts and it was a movie that I had to talk them into watching, simply because it was black and white. I knew they would throw a fit. We had just finished reading the book so I really talked up this movie...even though I had not yet seen it myself! I think that the whole entire class thought it was wonderful! I found that I couldn't take my eyes off of it the whole time! The part that got the students the most was when there was a burglar downstairs and you thought the cat was going to make a bunch of noise. The students were on the edge of their seats. The ending of the movie, for me, was very emotional because of all they had been through. Hearing the sirens that final time and knowing they were coming for them was heartbreaking!
