Anne Frank Differences
In both “Anne Frank” and “Freedom Writers” they show how people can be different depending on the situation they are living. For instance, in “Anne Frank” it shows that people can be harsh and selfish when there in a bad situation. When Mrs.Van Daan first arrives at the annex she seems to be a much happier person because nothing really bad has happened other than being hunted down by the Nazis. Once reality starts hitting her, she has to live with many people and learn to live with them, she will not be happiest nor be the nicest. (Anne Frank). Similarity Eva can seem selfish or careless when she first finds out she has to defend her boyfriend Paco from being arrested for being a suspect for killing another gang member. She is willing to defend her own people because that is the way that she was raised. But once she meets Mrs. Gruwell she sees that you don't always have to defend your own people if they are in the wrong. Once Eva tells the truth and no longer is lying she seems to be herself and much more happy compared to when she was in a tough situation. Ever since Eva confessed the truth she seems to be a completely different person compared to when she had a tough …show more content…
They both go through different difficult things. Anne's situation with living in an Annexe for two years with many people can make her feel frustrated and make her make selfish decisions that can better herself and not be the thoughtful girl she used to be (Anne Frank). On the other hand, Evas decisions can seem selfish because she is protecting herself and not get into bigger problems but in reality she is looking out for her own “kind”. She has so much pressure to lie in court so her boyfriend Paco doesn't go to jail for shooting the other gang member and blame another suspect. If Eva decides to tell the truth she can be hated from her family and friends who are involved in gang business(Freedom

    During World War II, the Franks and the Van Daans were hiding in a small area of two to three rooms, with a single window, in the attic of an office building in Amsterdam. In her diary, Anne refers to it as the "secret annex." For two years, these close quarters serve as a shelter and protection for the families against the Nazi enemy. While in hiding, problems and the characters' true natures evolved, revealing their differing personalities and value systems. Anne Frank, a young Jewish girl who writes a diary of her experiences during World War II, tells about the major characters in the play. The two characters that I chose to compare were Otto Frank, Anne's father and the only survivor of the group hiding, and Mr. Van Daan, Otto Frank's Jewish associate.…

    Anne Frank's internal conflict stems mainly from the adolescent turmoil that most teenagers experience. She wanted very much to be a normal, goofy teenager. At some points, Anne stated that she felt like two different people. One was the fun, noisy, annoying Anne, and the other was deep, quiet, serious, and afraid to let it show because of her fear of being laughed at by others. Anne also shared her struggles with a lack of self-confidence. She dreamed of being a journalist or writer, but she questioned how she could accomplish such a dream due to her shyness and insecurities. Anne often wrote about how she felt grown up one minute and like a child the next. She experienced tumultuous feelings about sex and relationships with boys. In particular,…
