She was 13 I believe when the diary starts. The thing that set Anne Frank\’s account above all the other holocaust accounts, was her youth combined with her way with written word. She was so well spoken at such a young age. Having an actress that is too old is a disservice to Anne Frank.

She was an extraordinarily good writer, for any age.

Also; What\’s the purpose to this version, other than, maybe, to bring the nightmare up to date? There are new nightmares. Leave Anne alone please.

Yet I\’d like to comment.

I\’ve always wondered how Anne\’s real voice sounded like. It will always remain a mystery to me, I know. It would be nice though, to hear a Dutch version. Its possibly the closest thing that one could get to imagining how the real Anne expressed herself.

Her life is an open ended story. Like her Diary, Anne occupied a universe within herself.

Little vignettes of this are glimpsed through her writing. She had written short stories as well which I think would perfectly accompany any movie media rendition of her life story as one can imagine it happening from her Diary point of view.

Anne\’s real self will always be beautiful and therefore, a mystery now that she is no longer able to express herself by her own presence in our time. There is the wonder for me… In the midst of all the grief and the sorrow, the tragic end – how she and all she connects to have outlasted those things… And will certainly continue to endure even now in the hearts of those who hope as she hopes. All for better things.
