Anne Frank was a Jewish teenager who, along with her family, friends and others, hid in an attic for two years to avoid Nazi persecution. Her famous diary of that period provided a unique, personal view of the Holocaust. This documentary examines her short, tragic life, using interviews, archival photographs, family correspondence, and rare footage. The events covered range from her parents' marriage in 1925 to her father's death in 1980. The wide variety of materials provide insight into Anne's personality and reveal that, despite her circumstances, she still experienced all the normal growing pains of a teenage girl. In 1944, the Nazis discovered Anne Frank and her group. She died in a concentration camp in 1944 -- only a few days before Allied troops marched in to liberate the camps. [More]

Reviews for Anne Frank Remembered
Pays tribute to her heroic spirit which stands for all the Jewish youth who were never allowed to grow up and savor the fullness of life.
Just when you might well have thought that pretty much all had been said and done about Anne Frank, this film makes us realize how much there still is to know about her and her times.
Blair used his unprecedented access to the archives of the Anne Frank House in Amsterdam to assemble a documentary that gives a picture of who the girl, who wrote the diary, actually was.
Anne Frank Remembered tells the audience very little about Anne, but the film speaks volumes concerning the problematic aspects of Holocaust representation.
Important for having humanized its central character and for 'authenticating' her life.
The interviews constitute the emotional backbone. The mere existence of these survivors is eloquent testimony to events so cruel they defy belief.
Anne's story of courage in the face of horrendous circumstances is a fine legacy, and Anne Frank Remembered reaffirms how relevant her message is today.
If the story of each of Hitler's victims was told with the sensitivity and power of Anne Frank Remembered, there would not be enough buckets in the world to hold all the tears.
Of all the movies and television productions that have told her story, this is the most valuable and satisfying.
If this is not the best film about the Holocaust, it does strongly chronicle the sad fate of one of its most famous victims.
