The Diary of Anne Frank is the story of a girl and her family's hiding. The Holocaust was when Adolf Hitler took over the Jewish population along with gypsies and the disabled. In the play and the movie, I saw two major differences. The first difference I noticed was the relationship between Anne & Petar developing. The second difference was the scene with the Green Police and thief. The Diary of Anne Frank is a very detailed story of what went on during her stay, I am going to explain the difference between events in the book and the movie based on her diary. The first difference is Anne and Petar's relationship, in the book Petar is more closed off and quite about things. In the beginning, Petar didn't really show feelings for anyone, nor did he share what he was feeling. Whereas Anne showed feelings for Petar and initiated things more often. Then as their relationship became closer Petar and Anne talked about things more freely. Sometimes Petar would ignore Anne, but one time Anne just went for it and kissed him. In the movie, the scenario was different. In the beginning, Petar was showing feelings for Margot and not really socializing with Anne, this went on for a …show more content…

His evidence is on page 19 of the Anne Frank Remembered novel by Miep Gies. He thinks that they are different because Anne is worried about what is going on inside the Annex, with her problems and conflicts with the Van Daans, while Miep is worried about what is going outside of the Annex and across Europe, with the Holocaust. “It was hard to know what was going on. In the official newspaper there was nothing but lies” (pg 19 AFR).

After viewing the biography of Anne Frank as well as reading the play of Anne Frank's diary, I believe my opinion and the evidence provided clearly states that movie was powerful, enough to say that the play didn't provide enough detail. I believe that the movie was very powerful, but lacked the information needed to understand what was going on. The play provided this information as well as Anne's thoughts and scripts in her diary, but excluded the severeness of the situation and also failed to provide enough detail onto what was going on outside of the Secret Annex. When looking at both the film and the playwright, you can see that there are major differences as wells as similarities.
