Anne Frank’s diary has changed how people have thought of world war 2 for many years. There are many differences in how the story is told through a play and a movie.the story takes place in a secret hide out called the annex. It is mainly about the 2 years that Anne, her family, the Van Daans, and Mr.Dussel. While there are many differences between the movie and the play they are both generally the same. They both show Mr.Kraler and Miep as the people that help Anne and the others in the annex through their tough time. They feed them with ration books they had to get from others because there is a war going on in the world at that time. Anne also becomes angry with Mr.Dussel and her mom in both story interpretations. She says that her mom …show more content…
First Off, the movie mentions that Mr.Dussel has a fiance, which is the opposite of the play where it says that Mr.Dussel has no family at all, which makes it easier for him to come to the annex. Also, it says in the movie that the people in the annex were allowed to come out the annex to work and to help make spices for Mr.Kraler. This is very different from the play where they are scared to even come out to scare a theft away in fear of being caught by the green police. One of the biggest differences is that the building was sold. This adds a twist to the movie because they are then allowed to be louder during the entire day, not having to be quite while the workers are below them. I think that the movie did this so that the audience wouldn't get bored of the people just sitting around the entire day. Mr.Dussel does dental work on Mrs. Van Daan and peter forgets to bolt a door which leads to Mr.Kraler having to break a window to get into the building below the annex are a few of the other things that don't happen in the play but happen in the movie. In conclusion the movie and the play are very similar, but vary in a few substantial ways. Anne Frank has made a lot of books, movies, and plays come out through her writing in her journal. Her diary has made people want to remember the past so that they can try and change the
With any comparison between a play and its movie counterpart there are bound to be major differences and key similarities between
Frank, Mrs. Frank, Margot Frank, Anne Frank, Mrs. Van Daan, Mr. Van Daan, Peter Van Daan, and Mr. Dussel. There were two characters that were not hiding but helped the group their names were Miep and Mr. Kraler. The evil in this group was how they treated each other when another was at fault. In the play, Mrs. Van Daan let Anne wear her nice fur coat that she got from her father and Anne accidentally got some milk on it. She got mad at Anne but that is reasonable but she was angry with everyone else for no reason which is not fair towards the other people in the house. The good in the group would mostly come from Mr. Frank because he was a leader towards the group and tried to solve all the problems. A part of the play Mr. Frank tried to reason with everyone so that they were all happy and would stay happy in the Annex. Although there were lots of people in the Annex they all tried and cope with each other in a reasonable matter.
The plots are quite similar in both plays, both the film and the play tell a story about a man who meets 3 people, in the
differences exist between the original play and the film. Apart from the specific techniques of lighting and
Another difference is the presence of three judges in the movie, whereas in the play there were only two, both of whom where made out to be "bad guys." One additional judge is added in the movie possibly to show that it was not the entirety of the Church that was unjust, cruel, and nearly ignorant. I
Another difference in the movie from the play is the obvious different points of view. The play is told from Estela’s point of view and the movie is shown through Ana’s point of view. The play shows more of Estela’s struggles in the factory, not being able to pay for the machines, paying rent and most being an undocumented worker in the
I also had compared Act Two, Scene 3, in the play and the film. The setting in the play is on a Saturday, moving day, one week later. In the film, the setting is the same as the play, with lighting and costumes. The plot in the play is Linder tries to buy back the house from the Younger family. In the film, the plot is the same as the play. The dialogue in the film has some deletions from play; new dialogue is added in replacement of the deleted dialogue. Some film techniques used in this scene are: the film cuts back and forth to different characters, and the room is well lit with the sunshine coming in through the window. Perhaps the biggest
In Summary, with these three examples it is shown that the play and the movie contrast quite a bit. Most of the story line and the dialogue were very similar to the original story in the movie but some things were changed, possibly to shorten the story to be able to make
the play. The “Anne Frank” play was very similar to the “Anne Frank” movie, but they also had some
One thing they have in common is they are all where home schooled. They all believed in the star of David religion. They are all Jewish kids or teens living in the secret annex with other families. They all died differently. However, I think this is where the similarity between the three teenagers ends.
In the Diary of Anne Frank, the two characters I chose to compare and contrast are Mrs. Frank and Mrs. Van Daan. These two ladies are similar and different in many ways. They are both middle aged women that live in Amsterdam. When the Holocaust began in 1939, Mrs. Frank and Mrs. Van Daan moved into the secret Annex with their families.
Comparing a play to its movie adaptation is something that is hard to do since there is no tangible way a person can capture the original then change it to make the movie version of it up to par to the original. From the original play of A Midsummer’s Night Dream that was created by Shakespeare in the movie version of it created by Michael Hoffman, there are many similarities and differences that are in the movie some are very stark while others are very subtle differences.
Many people were hurt by Adolf Hitler's plans and one thing he achieved was killing six million Jewish people including children. Anne Frank and her family were one of them. They lived in a secret and tiny annex where Otto used to work. They started off just going to stay there for a few months till the Allied Forces could invade Holland but that didn’t work out. In the drama wrote by Frances Goodrich and Albert Hackett eight people crowded into annex for 2 long years not being able to go outside. Many historical events were impacted in the drama Anne Frank. Even though these problems took place outside of the secret annex it changed the mood and relationships of the character.
The Play of the Diary of Anne Frank starts out in the annex in the warehouse in Amsterdam, Holland where Anne Frank and seven others hid out during World War II. It opens with Otto Frank and Miep Gies standing in the annex alone in 1945. Mr. Frank had just come home from the concentration camps, being the one survivor from the annex. After conversing for awhile, Miep hands Mr. Frank Anne’s diary from the days of living in the annex. He starts to read the book, as it slowly flashes back to 1942 when it all began…
Comparing the movie to the film, it follows the same concept although there is a ton of differences. First off, they have a fake wedding inside of a dress shop in the movie and in the play the couple gets secretly married, but it’s still the real deal. A big thing that I noticed is the death situation compared to the play, in the play Romeo kills Juliet’s cousin, which leads Romeo to drink poison because he doesn’t think Juliet loves him, which causes Juliet to commit suicide using his
