The Diary Of Anne Frank-
I watched The Diary Of Anne Frank. A 2009 made movie. It is inspired on a true story, about a girl named Anne. Anne, and her family are Jewish. At this time they had blamed jews for all of there problems and had put them in camps.
At the beggining of this film it shows them happy as can be and in there home. In June 1942, and It's Anne's 13th birthday. She is given a couple diffrent gifts but the one that brought on her attention the most was a red diary. She had never written in one and so she was pretty excited about it. Days later her older sister, Margo gets "Call up" papers. (Meaning that she has to go work for a work-camp in Germany) Her parents Otto and Edith don't want her to go. They had been hearing awful things, and won't settle in sending there 16 year old daughter there. The next morning, July 6th, they back a small bag. They can't take suitcases or the Nazi's would know what they were up to. So they wore as many clothes as they could one on top of another, and Anne put a couple things in her school bag and they were off.
They had planned in staying at Otto's work. He worked in a building for peticin and spice. They found up onto a "Secret Annex" at the back of the building. Only the trustworthy office staff, such as Miep Gies, knew of their existence. Had also agreed to help them survive, such as food and as much clothes as she possibly could. Threw the working hours they most not talk, or move around a lot. Can not use the toleit. It was hard, but they had to obey very strict rules. It was for there own saftey, and they saftey for Miep and the other helpers.
They very shortly after getting there sew materials together to make black-out curtains. They can't risk getting seen by anybody. They are than soon joined by their Jewish friends Mr and Mrs van Daan, and their teenage son Peter. Anne through out all of this is writting in her diary. Anne cannot stand Mrs van Daan, she is always on her tail about every little thing. It makes her most mad though, is that growing up her parents never did that. There all getting used to eachother, and the way things must go by this time. Than, after all that Miep has done, Anne invites her and her husband Jan, to dinner. To also stay overnight in her room. When they agree, Anne draws up a special menu in their honour, which Mrs van Daan cooks for them.
Miep than brings bad news, which she tells only the Franks, that the van Daans apartment had been broken into and all their belongings gone. Also another person arrives to stay at the annex, a dentist called Mr Dussel, who will sleep in Margot's bed. So he than will have half the room while Anne has the other.
The builing is than sold and everybody is terrified. As the new owner he will want to see exactly what he is dealing with. The lease won't be exchanged for months yet though, so the threat is over. Miep comes over as often as she can, to give them as much as she can. When Miep arrives this next time, she tells them their helpful grocer has gone missing. Which is going to make things very difficult. Miep also gives Mr Dussel the latest letter and food parcel from his fiance. This really bothers Anne as she thinks he is putting them at greater risk. Anne is always on edge and scared of being found. Her parents agree but do not want to make a big deal seeing that they have to live with him and see him everyday.
Anne feels that her mother buts Margo first and always has a closer, better relationship with her father. That evening, same one as Anne makes a sene about Mr Dussel's letters she helps to wash her mother's hair. For once they are close. Which meant a lot to her mother.
Soon it is Hanukkah and everyone in the annex gathers for the ceremony around the dinner table. Anne is really writting, everyday, as much as she possibly can in her Diary. No one is to look at it though. She has a desk in her shared room but Mr Dussel likes to hog it. She than talks to him about sharing more time because they agreed that they shared this room equally. He doesn't like the idea. Anne gets very upset and than goes and talks to her dad. Her father, Otto, than talks to Mr Dussel about how much potental Anne has in writting, and this is really the only thing she has. She gets equal time now, and she see's writting in a whole new way.
It is June 1943, and Anne is dreaming about her fourteenth birthday party. Suddenly she wakes up and remembers she is in the annex. Her family gives her whatever they can, but the only present that really excites her is a bar of chocolate. Which she realizes is all she can really get.
The families are wearing out their clothes, and don't have any money to replace them. The van Daans have little money left, and argue about whether they should sell Mrs van Daan's fur coat. Mrs says no, while Mr says yes. Mr smokes, and that is where a lot of there money is going. Otto measures Anne and Margot against the wall and finds that Anne has grown three inches in the last year. Which is a problem realizing that all of her clothes are not only worn out, but also to short.
Anne is growing into a young woman, and is realizing all of the changes happening to her body and emotions. Her periods have started and she is becoming aware of womanhood. She has even started to look differently at Peter, Mr and Mrs van Daans boy. When Peter comes up to the attic she tells him that she sees him differently now and apologies for having teased him all the time in the past. He invites her to come with him while he goes down to the warehouse to collect the potatoes.
Collecting the potatoes is Peter's job. One day on his potato run, Peter forgets to unlock the front doors, forcing the employees to break in. Peter gets blammed, and yelled at. Later, in response to her feelings, and emotions, Anne writes her parents a hurtful letter. She thinks that she in love with Peter.
May 1944, and the everyone gets awoken up by the sound of intruders downstairs. When they think that the noises have stopped, Otto and Peter go downstairs to lock the front door. So than the police might not notice. They than discover that the burglars are still there and sprint back to the annex. The next morning, Mr Kugler, informs them that the burglars had taken a lot of valuables. Also had said that they must be more careful.
Just than, August 4th, 1944, are taken away. The officer first asks "How long have you guys been up here?" Otto than says "2 years." Right than, the facial expression of the officer was unforgetable. It may have just been actors, but I bet it was the same look, and everything. At the very end Miep goes up, later after they's been taken away and finds her diary. Takes it, and keeps it.
Anne, Margo, and her mother were all deported to the Auschwitz concentration camp. Had died in 45.
Otto Frank survived his internment in Auschwitz.
This is the actress that plays Anne in this movie.
This is the real Anne Frank.
