Anne Frank, ma meilleure amie

Interesting to see a film based around the life of Anne Frank , but not solely all about her and for a change Anne is not portrayed as a complete angel.

However it's a film worth watching alone for the performance of Josephine Arendsen who was superb as Hannah Goslar.

A beautiful film about the friendship between Anne Frank and her friend Hannah. Do not care what others have voted down about the film, it is touching and sensitive and it will be difficult to keep the tears away.

Emotional and authentic film, definitely worth seeing!

An interesting portrayal of Anne Franks best friend Hannah Goslar and their relationship as teenage girls growing up in Nazi occupied Amsterdam.

I thought they portrayed Anne is a slightly annoying brat who at one point emotionally tormented Hannah by ignoring her.

However I thought the idea of showing Hannah's story was a powerful and fresh point of view to what million of Jews horribly endured during World War Two.

Not a classic but still a very sad story.

The movie has Anne Frank in the title, but it stars a different person. A friend of hers, who has her own journey and her own struggles ... and her own problems to survive. That being said, that should not deter you from watching this.

Nor the fact that it switches from good times to a harsh reality - which makes viewing this quite the hard task to say the least. Just when you see the girls/friends happy, you get taken away from that and shown concentration camps or other horrible things that (mainly) Jews had to endure back then.

Watching this - one can only hope that comparisons that are being made right now, are going to stop. I do not want to get too political, but when there is a pandemic, you should not compare yourself to people that were actually hunted and had to die for no reason at all - and not being able or having a choice in the matter.

But the movie was not made to be compared to nowadays. It was made to show how cruel or rather how horrible of a time it was back then ... and in that the movie succeeds.

This film tells an honest story about two best friends during the Second World War in the Netherlands. The film is told through the eyes of Hannah, Anne Frank's best friend. You see two teenagers who try to hold their own under sometimes difficult circumstances. It is a film that does not make us forget what happens when one group oppresses another. An absolute must see.
