The Diary of Anne Frank (DVD)

The awesome inhumanity of the Holocaust is brought into agonizingly personal perspective in director George Stevens' adaptation of the 1955 play by Frances Goodrich and Albert Hackett, which was based on young Anne Frank's memoirs. Millie Perkins stars as the 13-year-old German Jewish girl, who, with her parents and another family, was sheltered in the attic of an Amsterdam building to escape the Nazis. Joseph Schildkraut, Diane Baker, Lou Jacobi, and Oscar-winner Shelley Winters also star. Theatrical version; 179 min. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtrack: English. Region Free
