This haunting Jon Blair documentary is the most moving Holocaust film of them all.”

New York Daily News


“Deeply moving”

Independent on Sunday


“Spellbinding. This documentary dazzles with details and honesty. This film is very, very special - and very haunting.”

Fort Worth Star Telegraph


“An enthralling documentary”

Daily Express


“Remarkable, poignantly detailed documentary”

London Evening Standard


“The definitive best on the subject”

Daily Mail


“ANNE FRANK REMEMBERED will touch heart and soul.”

United Features Syndicate


Indispensible viewing. Two of the medium’s finest hours.”

Orlando Sentinel


Remorselessly moving but never relying on grief to win its audience, this is a faultless examination of the polarity of human nature. An extraordinary film.”

Time Out


“A stunning documentary, rich and riveting.”

Gannett News Service


“Superbly researched. Wonderful documentary.”

The Times


“The film of the week…Jon Blair’s beautiful, painstaking film brought us closer than ever to the sparky 15 year old…”

Independent on Sunday


“Not so much a documentary as a rare piece of history that virtually comes alive, taking your breath away with its immediacy. This film has many moments that expand the vision to encompass the millions of lives that were lost and the relative few that made it through the unimaginable horror of the Holocaust. Watch ANNE FRANK REMEMBERED and you won’t forget it.”

Seattle Post-Intelligencer


Monumental…compelling…devastating…The film abounds in beautifully understated and almost unbearably moving moments.”

Daily Telegraph


“The most significant film to be seen over the VE Day weekend…a work of such great care…an extraordinary film, genuinely educative, leaving the tragedy intact while gently excising the myth.”

The Times


“As anniversaries are cycled and recycled we must be forgiven for thinking that by now one knows all there is to know about the tragic diarist Anne Frank. But over the two hours of Jon Blair’s ANNE FRANK REMEMBERED our eyes are opened.”

The Times


“Looking at archive film of the camps it’s too easy to forget that behind every hollow face lies a whole world, almost infinite in its particulars. Jon Blair’s film, by concentrating so closely on one life, reminded you.”

The Independent
