    Watching the Anne Frank movie and reading the play helped me gain a lot of new information. The beginning of the play was all about the Franks having to go into hiding and how they were coping with their unfortunate situation. Similarly‚ the movie’s beginning also showed Anne Frank and her family going into their hiding spot‚ the Secret Annex‚ except the movie showed this with a lot more emotion‚ and with a much more serious and dramatic tone. By the middle of the play‚ the Van Daans had joined Anne’s

Out of all the portrayals of the story‚ the text was the least pleasurable because its content did
