Anne Frank Book vs Movie In the movie Anne Frank it was very interesting. At first I noticed it really wasn’t the same as the book. The Van Danns had different last names and some people changed. I thought that the movie was good because I could see how everything was and I was able to have a picture in my head of what was going on.
