The claustrophobic nature of the Franke family as they hide from the Nazi's in an annex is the star of the show. We have all heard the story before. What is interesting is the fact that they are able to lead a sort of life in a microcosm of peace. But Anne comes of age and begins to realize that she can't be what every young girl wants to be. She first is contentious but soon begins to fall in love. But the threat hangs over them every day, as well as over the benefactors. There are some differences between the book and the movie, but the themes and events, while changed, make the same impression. An outstanding performance by Millie Perkins.
