In “The Diary of Anne Frank” by Frances Goodrich and Albert Hackett, the conflict of the story is how the Nazis ultimately want to wipe out the Jewish population and have the German population dominate. This makes the Jew’s lives harder because the Nazis are forcing them to do things that make them stand out so that they can be treated differently. One example of this would be “We had to wear yellow stars” (Goodrich-Hackett 703). The Nazis made them wear this patch called The Star of David on all of their clothing so that people would know they were Jewish. The Nazis also prohibited Jews from doing everyday things.
Have you ever heard of Elie Wiesel? He is one of the very few Holocaust survivors who has a written something involving the Holocaust.

Prior to World War 2 Jewish people were the main family or culture that the Nazi’s been feeding off of and killing approximately 6,000 each day. Which led to 6.5 million Jews dead at the end of the war and a few survivors. Although one of these few survivors was Otto Frank, father of Anne Frank, Diarist of one of the most famous diaries, “The Diary of Anne Frank.” World War 2 was a devastating event that changed how Jews lived because because they were said to be “Divergent.” How I felt about the events covered in the Diary of Anne Frank was dramatically depressing.

Although the play and movie have differences at the beginning they also have similarities.
The first one that I will address is that in the play the Van Daans are already in the Annex when the Franks arrive, but in the movie, the Franks are already in the Annex and had been there for a while when the Van Daans arrived. The next difference is that in the play Peter knocks over a lamp when the robbers are downstairs, but in the movie, Peter does not knock over the lamp while the robbers are down stairs. In the movie Anne has more of a romantic relationship with Peter, but in the book it is more of just a friendly relationship. In the book Anne and Peter do not have a good relationship. It is just Anne teasing Peter, but in the movie they are friends early on.
