DVD Reviews of Biography - Anne Frank: The Life of a Young Girl (A&E DVD Archives)

DVD Review: A well-made documentary on Anne Frank
Summary: 4 Stars

Though this is a well-made documentary on Anne Frank, author of The Diary of a Young Girl, I personally feel Anne Frank Remembered packs a more emotional punch whilst tracing the life of this remarkable young woman who perished too young at the hands of the monstrous Nazis. Anne Frank was a pretty and intelligent young girl who together with her family had to suffer persecution at the hands of the Nazis because they were Jewish. The family went into hiding when Anne was thirteen and they remained in hiding for more than 2 years before they were betrayed and arrested by the Nazis. Anne eventually died of typhus in Bergen Belsen concentration camp, and of her family, only her father Otto survived the Holocaust.

This A&E Biography of Anne is well-produced and provides interesting insights into Anne's life. There are interviews with Anne's father and one of their friends (who helped them whilst they were in hiding), Miep Gies, a woman of remarkable courage and compassion. It also covers the period after the Franks' arrest. There is no definitive production out there which provides a comprehensive picture of Anne's life before, during and after hiding. Besides the documentary mentioned above, I would recommend two fictional dramatizations of Anne, i.e. Anne Frank - The Whole Story which is faithful to "The Diary of a Young Girl" and also provides a compelling reimagining of what happened to Anne and her family after they were arrested, right up to the moment of her death. The other production which is relatively new yet well-made, is The Diary of Anne Frank (As Seen On BBC). These two productions try to be as faithful as they can to the actual story of Anne and I highly recommend them for those who would like to gain a better understanding of Anne's life and writing. Of course, there are many books on the subject. Besides the diary itself, there's:
Anne Frank: Beyond the Diary - A Photographic Remembrance
Anne Frank's Tales from the Secret Annex
Inside Anne Frank's House: An Illustrated Journey Through Anne's World
Anne Frank Remembered: The Story of the Woman Who Helped to Hide the Frank Family
The Diary of Anne Frank: The Revised Critical Edition
