[QUOTE="Jiglo, post: 863128, member: 3953"] Hollywood..... you disgust me! After visiting the Anne Frank House museum in Amsterdam at the weekend and learning much of the history, I was trying to find a film that told the story of Anne Frank's Diary as it's an amazing book that's inspired presidents, victims of apartheid and millions of others from all walks of life. This then looked promising [url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0052738/?ref_=nv_sr_1]The Diary of Anne Frank (1959) - IMDb[/url] It had a high score, and reviewers seemed content that it it at least captured the spirit of the diary and the story. For me though it failed miserably as it didn't capture the characters that were occupants of the annexed household very well and told a different story to that told throughout the museum. It was pure Hollywood (take an amazing story, get screenwriters to adapt it to a story they think will sell, then dilute it, add in a love story and pretty much just annoy everybody who has a passing interest in authenticity). If anybody whose read the book, or been to the house museum can point me in the direction of the most authentic translation of the diary, either film or book (but I prefer film), then let me know :thumbsup: [/QUOTE]
