Ruhaan Shah Film Companion 05/24/2022
Far too overwrought...sophisticated cinematography and editing aren't enough to provide a ramp to the, already broken, narrative. Go to Full Review

cyprien N @cyprien 2d Anne Frank's story never gets easier to read but it's one that every generation should know this documentary adds another meaningful perspective.

See more Rocko P @Baxter666 Jul 1 BOOOORING..a TOTAL snoozefest...zzzzzzz See more Umutoni G @RT01569678 Jul 1 this movie is a really touching documentary. I liked how it mixed Anne Frank's story with real Holocaust survivors sharing their own memories. It doesn't try to be overly dramatic, but it still hits hard. It made me think about how important it is to remember history and how much courage people had during those terrible times. Not a movie for entertainment, but definitely one that stays with you after it's over. See more Michelle A @RT65271883 06/15/2023 Anne Frank - Parallel was informative. I found the young actress texting during the event a wee bit annoying. The rest of the documentary was well done. Helen Mirren's narrative was heartfelt.
