"Oh, it- 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, Miep." "I can't stay in Amsterdam." "Mr. Frank, this is your home." "Amsterdam is your home." "It has too many memories for me." "Everywhere there's something, Miep." "Everywhere." "Even seeing you and Mr. Kraler." "Forgive me." "I shouldn't talk to you like this after all that you did." "We would 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" " I... told Anne if I got back here, I'd find her book." "Anne's diary?" "It's where she left it." ""The ninth of July, 1942."" "1942." "Is it possible, Miep?" "Only three years ago." ""Dear Diary, since you and I are going 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." "[Mr. Frank, Anne's Voices Overlapping] "Things went well for us..." ""until the war came, and the German occupation." ""Then things got very bad for the Jews." "[Anne's Voice Only] 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, but we had never met them." "[Sighs]" "Something's happened." "They have three miles to walk." "Mother- They've been arrested." "I know." "Will you stop that?" "Mother!" "Father!" "We're here." "See?" "Mr. Van Daan." "Hello, hello." "Mrs. Van Daan." "Peter." "[Chuckling] Mr. Frank." "There were too many of the Green Police on the streets." "We had to take the long way around."

"So, now, please, let us take off some of these clothes." "[Mr. Kraler] Good morning." "Hello, Mr. Kraler." "Good morning, Mr. Kraler." "Mr. Frank." "Ah, you're all here." "That is good." "We had hoped to have everything in order." "Please, Mr. Kraler, don't even think of it." "After all, we'll have plenty of leisure to arrange everything ourselves." "I brought some sandwiches for your lunch." "Thank you, Miep." "The canned goods are here, and your stores of dried 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." "[Bells Pealing]" "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 in those houses should see, we would be lost." "Please remember, it's not only our lives that are at stake, but also Miep's and Mr. Kraler's." "You have but 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." "Good-bye for now." "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 the" "Good-bye." "Thank you, Mr. Kraler." "Good-bye, Miep." "Good-bye." "Good-bye." "[Edith] Anne!" "It's all right." "I have on three more." "Excuse me, Mr. Frank." "What did he mean, just 13 minutes?" "Before the workmen come." "Now, while the men are in the building below, we must have complete quiet." "Every sound can be heard down there, not only in the offices but in the workrooms too." "The men come at about 8:30, they leave at about 5:30, so to be perfectly safe, from 8:00 in the morning until 6:00 in the evening... we must move about up here only when it is absolutely necessary," "and then in stocking feet." "We must not speak above a whisper." "We must not run any water." "We cannot use the sink or even- forgive me- the W.C." "The pipes go down through the workrooms." "No trash must ever be- [Sirens Approach, Wailing]" "[Tires Screeching]" "[Wailing Passes, Fades]" "No trash must ever be thrown out which might reveal that someone is living up here." "Not even a potato peeling." "We must burn everything in this stove at night." "This is the way that we must live until it is over, if we are to survive." "Until it is over." "[Chuckles] After 6:00 we can move about." "We can talk and laugh, have our supper, read, play games, just as we would at home." "Now I think it would be wise if we all went to our rooms and were settled before 8:00." "Mrs. Van Daan, you and your husband will be upstairs." "I regret that 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, Annele." "[Mrs. Van Daan] Excuse me, Mr. Frank." "Yes?" "Where do you and Mrs. Frank sleep?" "This room is also our bedroom." "Oh, no." "You take the upstairs." "It's not right." "It's your place." "We'll sleep down here." "I've thought this out for weeks." "It's the best arrangement." "The only arrangement." "Uh, Edith?" "Hmm?" "You must have some rest, dear." "You didn't close your eyes last night." "Please go in the girls' room with Margot." "How about Anne?" "I feel fine." "I'm going to help Father." "This way, Mrs. Van Daan." "Excuse me." "Up here." "[Sighs]" "[Shuffling]" "[Peter] Mr. Frank." " Mr. Frank?" " Peter?" " Do I still have time to get some water for my cat?" " Have you got a cat?" "Go ahead, but be quick." "You only have 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, and it doesn't like strangers." "Well, I'll have to stop being a stranger, won't I?" "Is he fixed?" "No." "Well, 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?" "But why didn't you ever come over?" "Oh, I don't know." "I'm sort of a lone wolf." "Can't be a lone wolf here." "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?" "[Grunts]" "Help me." "I'm helping." "[Groans]" " What are you going to do with it?" " Burn it." "That'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 want to come and sit with us, Peter?" "It's going to 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." "Do you know he went to the same school that- [Bells Pealing]" "[Bell Tolling 8:00]" "[Anne Narrating] It's comforting to think that Mr. Kraler and his secretary... are down there below us in the office." "Our protectors, we call them." "[Typing]" "I asked Father what would happen to them if anyone found out... they were hiding us." "Father said they would suffer the same fate that we would."

"Hello." "Oh, Mr. Frank." "Yes?" "This is the box you asked for." "Thank you." "Good evening, Mr. Kraler." "My dear friends, you are so quiet up here." "I thought you'd gone out for a walk." "[Anne] Can you imagine me?" "I didn't talk." "I hardly moved for one whole day." "I wish they could hear that at school." " [Yowling]" " Mouschi!" "Mouschi!" " Peter!"

"Will you open it, please?" "You know how I'm going to think of it here?" "As a boardinghouse." "A very peculiar boardinghouse." "[Gasps] Father, my film stars!" "I was wondering where they were." "And Queen Wilhelmina." "How wonderful." "There's something more." "Go on." "Look further." "A diary." "I've never had a diary, and I've always wanted one." "Ohh." "[Sighs]" "A pencil?" "I'm going downstairs to get a pencil." "Anne, no." "But there's nobody down there now." "It doesn't matter." "Don't ever go beyond that door." "Ever?" "Never." "I'm sorry, Anne." "It isn't safe." "I see." "It'll be hard." "I know that." "But always remember this, Anneke:" "there are no walls, no locks, no bolts that anyone can put on your mind." "As a matter of fact, just between us, Annele, being here has certain advantages for you." "For instance, remember that battle you had with your mother on the subject of overshoes?" "You said you'd rather die than wear overshoes." "Remember?" "[Chuckling] Well, what happened?" "In the end, you had to wear them." "Now, for as long as we are here you won't have to wear overshoes." "Isn't that good?" "And the piano?" "You won't have to practice on the piano." "I tell you, this is going to be a fine life for you." "[Chuckling]" "[Anne Narrating] It's an odd idea for someone like me to keep a diary." "Not only because I have never done so before, but because it seems to me that neither I, nor for that matter anyone else, will be interested in the unbosomings of a 13-year-old schoolgirl." "Still, what does that matter?" "I want to write." "But more than that," "I want to bring out all kinds of things... that lie buried deep in my heart." "First of all, I expect I should be describing... what it's like to go into hiding." "[Birds Calling] But I don't really know yet myself."

"Anne dear, I think you shouldn't play like that with Peter." "It's not dignified." "Who wants to be dignified?" "I don't want to be dignified." "You complain that I don't treat you like a grown-up, but when I do you resent it." "I only want some fun." "I don't know what's the matter with that boy." "Give him a little time." "He isn't used to girls." "Time?" "Isn't two months time?" "[Chuckles] I could cry." "I wonder where Miep is." "She's usually so prompt."

"You know what your father says about you wasting all your time with that cat." "I haven't even looked at him since lunch." "I'm only telling you." "I'll feed him." "You stay out of here." "And I mean out." "Is that any way for you to talk to your little girlfriend?" "Mother," "I asked you, would you please not say that?" "Look, he's blushing." "[Giggling] He's blushing." "Please." "I'm not, but- Leave me alone, will you." "What did I say?" "You act like it's something to be ashamed of." "It's nothing to be ashamed of to have a little girlfriend." " That's crazy." "She's only 13." " So what?" "And you're 16." "It's just perfect." "[Meowing] Your father is 10 years older than I am." "Mr. Frank, I warn you, this war lasts much longer, we're gonna be related."

"All right, Miss Quack-Quack." "What's that?" "Miss Quack-Quack!" "Heard all about you." "How you talk so much in class, they call you Miss Quack-Quack."

"Are you feeling all right?" "Mother, please." "You don't have a fever, do you?" "No." "You know we can't call a doctor here, ever." "There's only one thing to do:" "watch carefully."

"[Siren Continues Wailing]" "[Anne Narrating] I keep wishing that Peter was a girl... instead of a boy." "Then I'd have someone to talk to." "With all the boys in the world, why did I have to get locked up with him?" "[Explosions]" "Is it someone?" "Is it Miep?" "It's strange we don't hear." "Maybe she got hurt- the flak." "She'll come." "I wish she'd get here." "I'm going crazy without cigarettes." "Anne, you got an "excellent" in your history paper today... and a "very good" in Latin." "Yes, but how about algebra?" "Well, I have a confession to make." "Up until now I managed to stay ahead of you in algebra." "Today you caught up with me." "We'll leave it to Margot to correct." "Isn't algebra vile, Father?" "Vile." "How did I do?" "Excellent, of course." "Anne, Anne, please." "Your French composition today was wonderful, just wonderful." "Mrs. Van Daan, may I try it on?" "No, Anne." "It's all right." "Really." "But please, be careful with it." "My father gave me this coat the year before he died." "He always bought me the best money could buy." "Mrs. Van Daan, did you have a lot of boyfriends... before you were married?" "Anne, that's a personal question." "It's not courteous to ask personal questions." "I don't mind." "Anneke, our house was always swarming with boys." " When I was a young girl" " Oh, no." "Not again." "Shut up!" "[Mrs., Mr. Van Daan] One summer we had a big house in Hilversum." "[Mr. Van Daan Continues] The boys" "The boys would come buzzing around like bees around a jam pot." "When I was 17" "Well, we were wearing our skirts very short in those days, and I had such good-looking legs." "I still have." "I may not be as pretty as I used to be, but I still have my legs." "How about it, Mr. Frank?" "All right, all right." "We see them." "I'm not asking you." "I'm asking Mr. Frank." "Mother, for heaven's sakes." "Oh, I embarrass you too, do I?" "Well, I only hope the girl you marry has as good." "Anneke, my father used to worry about me with all the boys hanging around." "And he used to say to me, "If any of those boys get fresh," ""you just say to him," "'Remember, Mr. So-and-so, remember, I am a lady."'" "Look at you, talking that way in front of her." "Don't you know she puts it all down in that damned diary?" "So what if she does?" "I'm only telling the truth." "Haven't you finished yet?" "No." "Oh." "The thinker." "Leave him alone." "All right, all right." "I'm a dunce, a hopeless case." "[Mrs. Van Daan] You're not hopeless." "It's just that you haven't got anyone to help you like Father helps Anne and me." "Well, if I- Well, if we could help" "What about it, Peter?" "Would you like to study with us?" "Shall we make our school coeducational?" "Thanks." "Yes." "Mr. Frank, you are an angel, an absolute angel." "Why didn't I meet you before I met that one there?" "I... think it might be better... if you went into your room, Peter, to work." "Excuse me." "You listen to Mr. Frank." "Mr. Frank is a highly educated man." "[Mr. Van Daan] It's after 8:00." "Where are they?" "At least one of them should have come." "They'll come." "Don't worry." "Don't tell me." "I know something's wrong." "Isn't it bad enough around here without you sprawling all over the place?" "If you didn't smoke all the time, you wouldn't be so bad-tempered." "Do you see me smoking?" "Oh, you already smoked up all the cigarettes?" "One package." "Miep only brought me one package." "It's a filthy habit, and this is a good time to break yourself of it." " Oh, stop it." " You're smoking up all our money!" "Will you shut up!" "And what are you staring at?" "I never heard grown-ups quarrel like that before." "I thought only children quarreled." "This isn't a quarrel." "It's a discussion." " And I never heard children so rude before." " I, rude?" "Yes!" "Anne, drink your milk." "The trouble with you is, you've been spoiled." "You need a spanking." "Remember, Mr. So-and-so, that I am a lady." "Mmm, you're the most aggravating" "Why aren't you nice and quiet like your sister Margot?" "Why do you have to show off all the time?" "Let me give you a little advice, young lady- men don't like that in a girl." "Do you know that?" "A man likes a girl who will listen to him once in a while." "A domestic girl who loves to cook and clean- I'd cut my throat first!" "I'd open my veins." "I'm going to be remarkable." "I'm going to Paris to study music and art." "Paris?" "Yeah, yeah." "I'm going to be an actress, or a writer, or a dancer." "[Mrs. Van Daan Gasps]" "Look what you did." "I'm so sorry." "You clumsy little fool!" "This is the coat my father gave me!" "I'm so sorry." "You ruined it." "What do you care?" "Ruined it!" "[Sobbing] I could kill you!" "I could just kill you!" "Petronella." "Liebchen, Liebchen." "[Continues Sobbing]" "Petronella." "[Mr. Van Daan] It's only a coat." "Anne, you must not behave in that way." "It was an accident." "Anyone can have an accident." "I don't mean that." "I mean the answering back." "You must not answer back." "They're our guests." "You don't hear Margot getting into any arguments with them, do you?" "Try to be like Margot." "And have them walk all over me the way they do her?" "No, thanks." "I don't know what happens to you, Anne." "If I had ever talked to my mother as you talk to me" "Things have changed, Mother." "People aren't like that anymore." ""Yes, Mother." "No, Mother." "Anything you say, Mother."" "I've got to fight things out for myself." "But- Make something of myself." "It isn't necessary to fight to do it." "Margot doesn't fight." "Margot!" "That's all I hear." ""Why aren't you like Margot?"" "Everything she does is right, and everything I do is wrong!" "You're all against me, and you worst of all!" "[Sighs] [Door Slams]" "I don't know how we can go on living this way." "I can't say a word to Anne, she flies at me." "You know Anne." "In a half hour she'll be out here laughing and joking." "And, uh" "I told your father it wouldn't work- two families." "But no, no, he had to ask them." "[Footsteps, Faint]" "Shh."

"When Mr. Kraler comes, the sun begins to shine." "Dirk has had to leave." "Dirk is Miep's fiancé." "He had to go into hiding in the country to escape a labor call-up."

"I'm dreaming, I know it." "Mr. Otto Frank, here." "You're not in Switzerland, then?" "Someone said that you escaped to Switzerland." "And you've been here all this time?" "Ever since July." "Did Mr. Kraler warn you you won't get much to eat here?" "You can imagine..." "three ration cards among the seven of us." "Now you make eight." "Mr. Van Daan, you don't realize what's happening outside... that you should warn me of a thing like that." "You don't realize what's going on right here in Amsterdam." "Every day, hundreds of Jews disappear." "They surround a block, and they search house by house." "Every day children come home from school to find their parents gone." "Hundreds are being deported." "People that you and I know- the Hallensteins, the Wessels." "[Mrs. Van Daan] Oh, no." "You get your call-up notice- come to the station on such and such a day and hour." "Bring only what you can carry." "If you don't go, they come and drag you from your home... and ship you off to Mauthausen- the death camp." "We didn't know that things had got so much worse." "Forgive me for speaking so." "Do you know the de Vries?" "They're gone." "Sanne and I are in the same class." "Sanne is my best- my best friend." "She returned home from school to find her parents gone." "She was alone for two days, and then they came and took her away." "Gone?" "With all the others." "Oh, no." "Some people named Meyerberg, they lived near us" "I think we should put this off until later, Mrs. Van Daan." "I'm sure Mr. Dussel would like to get settled now."

"Oh, I always get along very well with young people." "My patients all bring their children to me... because they know I get along well with them." "So don't you worry about that."

"It's fine" " It's fine to have you tell me that you love me, but I'd be much happier if you said that you loved your mother as well." "She needs your help so much." "Your love." "We have nothing in common." "She doesn't understand me." "Whenever I try to explain my views on life, she asks me if I'm constipated." "You hurt her very much just now." "She's crying." "She's in there crying." "Oh, Father, I was horrible, wasn't I?" "What's the matter with me?" "Tell me." "Don't say it's just a phase." "Help me." "There's so little we parents can do to help our children, Anne." "We can only try to set a good example." "Point the way." "The rest you must do yourself." "I'm trying." "Really, I am."

"I say to myself, "That was wrong."" "And I make up my mind I'm never going to do that again." "Never." "I may do something worse, but I'll never do that again." "[Sighs] I have a nicer side, Father." "But I'm scared to show it." "I'm afraid people will laugh at me." "So the mean Anne comes to the outside... and the good Anne stays in the inside." "And I keep on trying to switch them around... and have the good Anne outside and the bad Anne inside." "It would be what I'd like to be... and might be... if only" "[Sighs]" "She's asleep."

"Pay him what he asks." "Keep him here where you can keep your eye on him." "Is it so much that he is asking?" "I mean, what are they paying nowadays?" "He could get it in a war plant." "Mm-hmm." "But this is not a war plant." "Mind you, I do not know if he knows or not." "Offer him half." "Then we'll soon know if it is blackmail or not." "And if it is, we've gotta pay, haven't we?" "[Chuckles]" "Whatever he asks, we've gotta pay." "Let us decide that when the time comes." "This may be all my imagination." "You get to a point these days where you suspect everyone and everything." "[Siren Wailing] [Phone Rings]" "[Wailing Continues] [Ringing Continues]" "What does that mean, the telephone ringing on a holiday?" "That's my wife." "I told her I had to go over some papers in my office, to call me here when she got out of church." "Good-bye." "Good-bye." "Happy New Year." "[All] Good-bye." "Good-bye, Mr. Kraler." "[Ringing Continues]" "I will offer him half then." "Thank you, Mr. Kraler." "[Ringing Continues] [Dussel] You can thank your son for this." "[Ringing Continues] [Dussel] You can thank your son for this." "Him and his damn cat." "That night." "There." "I tell you, it's-it's-it's- it's just a question of time now." "Sometimes I wish the end would come, whatever it is." "Margot!" "Well, then at least we'd know where we were." "You should be ashamed of yourself, talking that way." "Think how lucky we are." "Think of the thousands dying in the war every day." "Think of the people in concentration camps." "What's the good of that?" "What's the good of thinking of misery when you're already miserable?" "That's stupid." "We're young, Margot and Peter and I." "You grown-ups have had your chance." "Look at us." "If we begin thinking of all the horror in the world, we're lost." "We're trying to hold on to some kind of ideals, when everything- ideals, hope- everything is being destroyed." "It isn't our fault the world is in such a mess." "We weren't around when all this started." " Now you listen to me." " So don't try to take it out on us." "[Huffs]" "[Mr. Van Daan] She talks as if we started the war." "Did we start the war?" "You left this." "Thanks." "I thought you were fine just now." "You know just how to talk to 'em." "I can never think when I'm mad." "I say too much." "I hurt people's feelings." "I think you're just fine." "Thank you, Peter." "That Dussel, what he said about Mouschi, about somebody eating him, all I could think is I wanted to hit him." "That's what I used to do in school, but, here a fight starts, I just duck in my room." "You're lucky having a room to go to." "His Lordship is always in mine." "When they start in on me, I have to stand and take it." "You gave some of it back to them just now." "I get so mad." "They've formed their opinions." "About everything." "But we're still trying to find out." "We have problems here that no other people our age have ever had." "And just as you think you've solved them, something comes along and, bang," "you have to start all over again." "I think your father's fine." "Oh, he is, Peter." "He is." "He's the only one who's ever given me the feeling that I have any sense." "Isn't it funny, you and I?" "Here we've been together all this time... and this is the first time we've ever really talked." "It helps a lot to have someone to talk to, doesn't it?" "It helps you let off steam." "[Glass Clinks]" "Any time that... you want to let off steam, you can come into my room." "I can get up an awful lot of steam." "[Chuckles]" "It's all right with me." "Do you mean that?" "I said it, didn't I?" "Good night." "Good night." "Good night." "Good night." "Good night." "Good night." "May I come in?" "No, Mr. Dussel." "I'm not dressed yet." "Oh." "Margot." "Hmm?" "Tell me, am I terribly ugly?" "Oh, stop fishing." "No." "Tell me." "Of course you're not." "You've got nice eyes... and a lot of animation and- and" " May I come in?" " Come in, Mother." "Mr. Dussel is impatient to get in here." "[Anne] He takes the room for himself the entire day." "You're not going in again tonight to see Peter, hmm?" "That is my intention." "Aren't you afraid you're disturbing him?" "Mother, I have some intuition." "Then may I ask you this much, Annie?" "Please don't shut the door when you go in." "You sound like Mrs. Van Daan." "Oh, no." "I don't mean to suggest anything wrong." "I only wish you wouldn't expose yourself to criticism." "I'm sorry, Mother." "I'm going to Peter's room." "I'm not going to let Petronella Van Daan spoil our friendship." "Just a moment, Mr. Dussel." "In my day the boys called on the girls." "[Mrs. Frank] You know how young people are." "Peter's room is the only place they can talk." "Talk?" "That's not what they called it when I was a girl." "I'm sorry, Margot, that you have to be the one left out." "I feel so guilty about you." "Why?" "I mean, every time I go to Peter- into Peter's room, I have the feeling that I'm hurting you." "I know if it were me, I'd be desperately jealous." "I am jealous a little." "Not of you and Peter." "I'm" "I'm only feeling sorry that I haven't anyone... with whom to- to discuss my feelings." "Margot, I won't even" "Listen, you've found a companionship, and I want you to enjoy it." "Only... in my heart I feel that I've got a right to share feelings with someone too." "But I'm sure that Peter- that that boy, he could just never be that person for me." "[Knocking On Door]" "Maybe there's nothing to be jealous about." "Maybe I'm just taking the place of his cat." "Will you please let me in my room?" "[Anne] Just a minute, dear, dear Mr. Dussel." "Well, here I go... to run the gauntlet." "Thank you so much." "[Heel Snaps]" "Look at her." "A lot of good it did me to have a son." "I never see him." "Just a minute, dear." "I'd like to say a few words to my son." "Do you mind?" "Peter, I do not want you staying up till all hours tonight." "You need your sleep." "You are a growing boy." "Anne won't stay late." "She's going to bed promptly at 9:00." "Aren't you, Anne?" "Yes, Mother." "May we go now?" "[Mrs. Frank] Listen for the chimes, dear." "Aren't they impossible?" "Treating us as if we're still in the nursery." "Don't let it bother you." "It" " It doesn't bother me." "I suppose you can't really blame them." "They think back to what they were like at our age." "They don't realize how much more advanced we are." "[Explosions]" "[Sighs]" "Already I know what I want to do." "Don't you?" "I want to be a journalist or something." "I love to write." "What do you want to do?" "I know what I'd like right now." "I'd like to make it to England, get with the Free Dutch Forces over there." "Peter, you wouldn't try a thing like that." "You'd never make it." "I'd make it." "Only a few of the hundreds that try do." "I know, but..." "I'd like to get in it and- and hit back." "To just sit here, it's not for me." "You like Margot, don't you?" "Right from the start you liked her." "Liked her better than me." "Oh, I don't know." "It's all right." "Everyone feels that way." "Margot's so good." "She's sweet and bright and beautiful, and I'm not." "I wouldn't say that." "Oh, no, I'm not." "I know that." "I know quite well that I'm not a beauty." "I never have been and never shall be." "I don't agree at all." "I think you're pretty." "That's not true." "A-And another thing." "You've changed." "From the first, I mean." "I have?" "I used to think that you were awful noisy." "And what do you think now, Peter?" "How have I changed?" "Well, you" "You're quieter." "I'm glad you don't just hate me." "I never said that." "I bet when you get out of here, you'll never think of me again." "That's crazy." "When you get back with all your friends, you're going to say," ""Now, what did I ever see in that Miss Quack-Quack?"" "I haven't got any friends." "Peter, of course you have." "Everyone has friends." "Not me." "I don't want any." "I get along fine without 'em." "Does that mean you can get along without me too?" "I think of myself as your friend." "No." "If they were all like you, it'd be different." "[Explosions]" "Peter- Hmm?" "Did you ever kiss a girl?" "Yes." "Once." "Was she pretty?" "The girl you kissed." "I don't know." "I was blindfolded." "It was at a party." "One of those kissing games." "Oh." "I don't suppose that really counts, does it?" "It didn't with me." "I've been kissed twice." "Once a man I'd never seen before kissed me on the cheek... when he picked me up off the ice." "I was crying." "And the other was a friend of Father's who kissed my hand." "You wouldn't say those counted, would you?" "[Clears Throat] I wouldn't say so." "[Explosion]" "I know almost for certain..." "Margot would never kiss anyone unless she was engaged to them." "And I'm sure too that Mother never touched a man before Father." "But I don't know." "Things are so different now." "What do you think?" "Do you think a girl shouldn't kiss anyone... except if she's engaged or something?" "It's so hard to try to think what to do, when here we are with the whole world falling around our ears." "And you think, well, you don't know what's going to happen tomorrow." "What do you think?" "Well, uh," "I suppose it- it depends on the girl." "With some, n-no matter what they do, it's wrong." "But others, it wouldn't necessarily be wrong with them." "[Bell Tolling] I always thought that... when two people" "I think I should go now." "[Tolling Continues] That's right." "Good night." "You won't let 'em stop you from coming?" "No." "I might bring my diary." "There are so many things in it I want to talk over with you." "There's a lot about you." "What kind of things?" "Well," "I wouldn't want you to see some of it." "I thought you were nothing." "Just the way you thought about me." "Did you change your mind, the way I changed my mind about you?" "Well, you'll see." "Good night, Annele." "Good night, angel." "Good night." "[Door Opens, Closes]" "Mm-hmm." "[Anne Narrating] Outside there is a quiet excitement." "Invasion fever is mounting from day to day," "Invasion fever is mounting from day to day, and people talk of nothing else but the hope of liberation." "It had best come soon." "We here have had bad news." "The people from whom Miep got our ration cards have been arrested." "Mr. Kraler is in the hospital." "It seems he has ulcers." "I'm afraid we are his ulcers." "Miep has to run the business and us too." "How very fortunate we are... when you think of what is happening outside." "[Anne Narrating] I feel that spring is coming." "I feel it in my whole body and soul." "I'm utterly confused." "I am longing- so longing for everything." "[Birds Twittering]" "[Foghorn Blows]" "[Foghorn Blows]" "Otto!" "Otto, quick."

"You good-for-nothing." "[Mr. Frank] Let him go, Mr. Dussel." "Help me, Peter." "Let him go!" "Peter, help me!" "[All Grunting] Let him go!" "[Foghorn Blows]" "Putti, what is it?" "He was stealing the bread." "It was you." "And all the time we thought it was the rats." "[Mr. Frank] Mr. Van Daan, how could you?" "I'm hungry." "We're all of us hungry." "I see the children getting thinner and thinner." "Your own son, I've heard him moan in his sleep, he's so hungry." "And you come down in the night and steal food that should go to them, the children." "He needs more food than the rest of us." "He's used to more." "He's a big man." "And you!" "[Whimpers]" "You're worse than he is." "You're a mother, and yet you sacrifice your son to this man, this-this" "Edith." "Don't think I haven't seen you." "Always saving the choicest bits for him." "I've watched you." "Day after day, and I've held my tongue, but not any longer." "Not after this!" "Now I want him to go." "I want him to get out of here!" "Edith." "Get out of here?" "What do you mean?" "Just that." "Take your things and get out." "You're speaking in anger." "You cannot mean what you're saying." "I mean exactly that." "For two long years we have lived here side by side." "[Mr. Frank] We have respected each other's rights." "We have managed to live in peace." "Are we going to throw it all away?" "Mr. Van Daan," "I know this is never going to happen again, is it?" "No, no." "Ah, he steals once, he'll steal again." "I want them to leave." "You go now!" "[Anne] Mother." "You're not putting Peter out?" "Peter hasn't done anything." "I don't mean Peter." "Peter can stay." "I'll have to go if he goes." "That's my father." "He's no father to you, that man." "He doesn't know what it means to be a father." "I wouldn't feel right." "I couldn't stay." "Very well then." "[Door Closes]" "Peter." "No." "Mrs. Frank, you would put us out in the street?" "You can find another hiding place." "Where would we even find a cellar- a-a closet?" "Mr. Frank, you told Putti... you would never forget what he did for you when you first came to Holland." "You said you never would be able to repay him." "If my husband had any obligations to you, he has paid it over and over." "Edith, I don't know you." "I've never seen you like this." "I should have spoken out long ago." "You can't be nice to some people." "There would have been plenty for all of us if you hadn't come in here!" "No, no, Mrs. Van Daan." "Please." "[Whimpers]" "We don't need the Nazis to destroy us." "We're destroying ourselves." "Mother, please don't send them away." "It's daylight." "[Margot] And they'll be caught." "[Man On Radio] Supreme headquarters- They're not going now." " They'll stay until Miep finds them a place to hide." " Mrs. Frank, Mr. Frank, Margot." "Oh, no, no."
