Mr. Frank.
Mr. Frank?
Kraler.
Mr. Kraler.
Miep.
My good friends.
It is so good
to see you home.
We had heard nothing.
I'm alone.
You must come
home with us...
...and rest now.
- You must stay with us. No,
I can't stay in Amsterdam.
Mr. Frank, this
is your home.
- Amsterdam is your home.
- It has too many memories.
Everywhere there's
something, Miep. Everywhere.
Even seeing you
and Mr. Kraler...
I shouldn't talk to you
like this, after all you did.
Why, we'd do it again.
Everything's
gone. The book...
They took everything,
except some papers.
We saved your
letters and papers.
Please burn them.
Burn everything.
I told her...
...if I got back here,
I'd find her book.
Anne's diary?
It's where she left it.
"The 9th of July, 1942."
1942. Is it
possible, Miep?
"Dear Diary, since you and
I are to be great friends...
...I will start by telling
you all about myself.
My name is Anne Frank.
I am 13 years old.
I was born in Germany, but
since my family is Jewish...
...we emigrated to Holland
when Hitler came to power.
Things went well for us until the
war came and the German occupation.
Then things got very
bad for the Jews."
You could not do this
and you could not do that.
We had to wear
yellow stars.
I had to turn in my bike.
I couldn 't go to a
Dutch school anymore.
I couldn 't go to the movies
or ride in an automobile...
... or even
on a streetcar.
And a million
other things.
But somehow, we children
still managed to have fun.
This morning, Father
woke me at 5:
00...... and told me to
hurry and get dressed.
We were going into hiding.
I was to put on as
many clothes as I could.
It would look too suspicious if
we walked along carrying suitcases.
We were going
to disappear...
... vanish into thin air.
I'm living a
great adventure.
Three other people were coming
in with us. Father knew them.
We had never met them.
- Something's happened.
They had a 3 mile walk.
Mother.
- They've been arrested, I know.
Will you stop that?
- Mother. Father.
We're here.
You see?
Mr. Van Daan. Hello.
- Mrs. Van Daan.
- Mr. Frank.
Peter. There were too many
Green Police on the streets.
We took the long way around.
Did you introduce yourself?
My daughter Anne.
My wife, Edith.
Margot. Mr. And
Mrs. Van Daan.
Oh, and this is
our son, Peter.
So, now, please let us take
off some of these clothes.
Good morning. Good
morning, Mr. Kraler.
Morning, Mr. Kraler.
- Mr. Frank.
You're all here.
That is good.
- We hoped to have everything in order.
- Please, don't even think of it.
We'll have leisure to
arrange everything ourselves.
- Brought sandwiches for lunch.
- Thank you, Miep.
and your beans and potatoes.
- I'll get you ration books this afternoon.
- Ration books?
If they see our names on ration
books, they'll know we're here.
Don't worry. It won't be
your names that'll be on them.
Father! The Westertoren!
- Anne! No!
You must never touch
a curtain. Never.
No one must ever touch
a curtain, day or night.
If someone on the streets should
look up or someone should see...
...we would be lost. Remember,
it's not only our lives at stake...
...but Miep's
and Mr. Kraler's.
- You have 13 minutes to
get settled. Thank you.
Miep or I will be up each day
to bring you food and news.
Come, Miep, we must go.
- Goodbye.
Goodbye, Mr. Kraler.
How can we thank you?
I never thought I'd live to see
the day when a man like Mr. Frank...
...would have to go into
hiding. When you think of it...
Goodbye. Thank
you, Mr. Kraler.
Goodbye.
Anne!
- It's all right, I have on three more.
Excuse me, Mr. Frank.
- What do they mean, "13 minutes"?
Now...
...while the men are in the
building below, we must be quiet.
Every sound can be heard down there,
in the offices and in the workrooms too.
The men come at about 8:30.
So to be perfectly safe,
from 8 a.m. Until 6 p. M...
...we must move about up here
only when absolutely necessary...
...and then in
stockinged feet.
whisper or run any water.
We cannot use the sink or
even, forgive me, the W.C.
workrooms. No trash must ever be...
No trash, which might reveal someone's
living here. Not even a potato peeling.
We must burn everything
in the stove at night.
This is the way that we must live
until it is over, if we are to survive.
Until it is over.
After 6:
00, we can moveabout. We can talk and laugh...
...have our supper, read, play
games, just as we would at home.
Now it would be wise if
we all went to our rooms...
...and were settled before 8:00. Mr.
And Mrs. Van Daan, you're upstairs.
I regret there's no place up there
for Peter. But he'll be here, near us.
- And where am I?
- You and Margot will be in there.
Excuse me, Mr. Frank. Yes?
Where do you sleep?
This room is our bedroom.
Oh, no, no. You take the
upstairs. We'll sleep down here.
I've thought this out.
It's the best arrangement.
The only arrangement.
Edith? You must
have some rest, dear.
You didn't close your eyes last
night. Now, go in the girls' room.
- Well, how about Anne?
- I feel fine.
I'm going to help Father.
This way, Mrs. Van Daan.
Excuse me.
Up here.
Mr. Frank?
Mr. Frank? Peter?
- I have time to get water
for my cat? You've a cat?
Go ahead, but be quick.
- You only have about five minutes.
- He couldn't live without that cat.
I didn't know
you had a cat.
I love cats.
What's its name?
- Mouschi.
- What is it? Mouschi. A him or her?
- It's a tom. It doesn't like strangers.
- Then I'll have to stop being a stranger.
Is he fixed? No.
You ought to have him fixed,
to keep him from fighting.
What a nice cat.
Where do you go to school?
- Jewish Secondary. That's
where Margot and I go.
- Yeah, I know.
- I've never seen you around.
- I used to see you sometimes.
- You did?
Why didn't you
ever come over?
Oh, I don't know. I'm
sort of a lone wolf.
You can't be a
lone wolf here.
I wonder what our friends will
say when we don't show up today.
I had a date with Sanne.
Do you know Sanne de Vries?
- No. Sanne's
my best friend.
She's thin like me.
They always yell at us:
"Anne and Sanne,
the skinny bananas."
You took off your star.
That's right.
You can't do that. They'll arrest
you if you go out without your star.
Who's going out?
- Help me.
- I'm helping.
- What are you going to do with it?
- Burn it.
It's funny, I don't
think I could burn mine.
- I don't know
why. You couldn't?
Something they make you wear
so they can kick you around.
I know. But after all...
...it is the Star
of David, isn't it?
Annele, it's almost 8:00.
Don't you wanna sit with
us? Lt'll be a long day.
No, thanks. This is fine.
You won't forget to take
off your shoes, will you?
Peter...
...it's nice to
have you with us.
Yes, Mr. Frank.
See you later.
