Product Description
Movie DVD
Outline
Anne Frank has not been forgotten. More than 25 million copies of her diary--which has been turned into a play and a movie--have been sold. This intense, richly detailed documentary paints a broad portrait of Anne. Documentaries are a dime a dozen, but few stories are as truly powerful, as sincerely moving and poignant as Anne's. Director Jon Blair does a phenomenal job with this carefully detailed, thoughtful, emotional film (his previous documentary on Oskar Schindler so captivated Steven Spielberg that he was inspired to make Schindler's List). Blair unearths a 1980 interview with the only surviving member of the Frank family, Anne's father, Otto, who offers an unpublished portion of her diary. Blair also discovers previously unseen footage of her watching a 1941 wedding, the only known film of Anne to exist; it's a brief, but breathtaking image of a girl who inspired the world. Blair also interviews Peter Pepper, who hid with the Franks, and Hanneli Goslar, who befriended Anne and her sister at camp and depicts the Frank girls' last days. The most potent interview, though, is with Miep Gies, Otto's employee who risked her life to help the Franks. Gies, modest and not completely comfortable on camera, is so likable that she seems to embody Anne's touching words, spoken amidst the horror of their lives: "In spite of everything, I still believe that people are really good at heart." Kenneth Branagh narrates and Glenn Close reads Anne's diary excerpts. --N.F. Mendoza

 | Exceptional Documentary Tribute! Nov 9, 2007 |
| Far more than a simple tribute, this is the most comprehensive and detailed documentary about Anne Frank available. It uses original and archive interviews with the people who knew Anne. That being said, it is also the longest and some people have a hard time sitting through it. It covers Anne's childhood through the time in hiding and finally what we know of her time in the concentration camps. It's also notable for the first time ever meeting of Peter Pepper (Fritz Pheffer/Mr Dussel's son) and Miep Gies. It also has the only motion picture footage of Anne in existence. | | |  | Wonderful Documentary! Oct 27, 2007 |
| This film is filled with info abotu Anne Frank and her life in hiding. I most wonderful thing about it is that it shows places where Anne Frank was like the Montessori school, Secret Annex, and Bergen-Belsen. I highly recommend the film for Anne Frank lovers. | | | | Anne Frank Remembered Sep 13, 2007 |
| This is a good documentary of the life of Anne Frank and those people involved in her life. There is information about her family and the people that lived with her and helped her family in her 2 years of hiding before going to the concentration camp. Most information is told through her diary and feedback from an interview type setting of those who lived to tell the tale. There is only one clip of Anne lasting about 3 seconds. This is a very informative documentary no actors are involved in this film. | | | | Tearful but uplifting Jul 30, 2007 |
| Very moving, but what a gift this young girl had - just an ordinary teenager and her problems. Her murder was and will always be to me the first thoughts of the holocaust - only 67 years ago. | | | | Anne Frank Remembered Jul 11, 2007 |
| An inspiration to millions the world over with her posthumously published diaries, Anne Frank here gets an eye-opening and deeply moving tribute from writer/producer/director Blair, who excavated rare film footage of Anne and her father Otto, the only member of the family to survive the camps. Quite powerfully, we also hear direct testimony from Miep Gies, a family friend who bravely risked her life to help the Franks escape, and Hanneli Goslar, the last person to have contact with Anne, through a barbed-wire fence at Bergen-Bergen. Narrated by Branagh, this film adds an indispensable, if sad and harrowing, perspective to our store of Holocaust testimonies. | | | Write your own review about Anne Frank Remembered
