The Diary of Anne Frank | Rotten Tomatoes

Jim P You'd think a film set in an attic would be boring... But no! A great story full of suspense. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/16/25 Full Review Red T An All Time Classic powered by phenomenal acting and a sweeping musical score. The cinematography works beautifully. The black and white ascetics work beautifully and despite the setting being only a small attic it is extremely memorable and intimate because of how well framed shots are. Despite the editing being solid overall and the pacing very well this does have some marginal issues particularly in the first half. Things can just sort of happen with no clear idea who the main character is but there really good scenes still. Also some scenes can go on a bit too long throughout but there good scenes so its not that big a deal but it does a dd up a bit by the halfway point. The second half focuses way more on Anne and evokes a lot more emotion. This is a really sad but moving film about the coming of age, a historical account of a terrible event, and the human spirit. Everyone should see this once. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/29/23 Full Review Cody M A brilliant and heartbreaking retelling of one of the most tragic stories of WWII, combined with Stevens's direction, Goodrich and Hackett's script, the performances of the cast, Newman's score, Mellor's cinematography, the editing by Bretherton, Mace and Swink, Davis and Wheeler's art direction, Reiss and Scott's set decoration, LeMaire and Wills's costume design, character values and emotional weight, The Diary Of Anne Frank recreates in great detail one of WWII's most tragic moments!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/23/21 Full Review Audience Member Read the book. There is no substitute. As for the film, its not a true reflection of the book at they have edited parts out and added other parts. The Actress who plays Anne is not a want I see when reading the diary, other than that its okay.
