The Attic: The Hiding of Anne Frank ★★½ 1988

Steenburgen is wonderful in the true story of Miep Gies, the Dutch woman who hid Otto Frank, her employer, and his family from the Nazis. Unusual because it is told from Gies's perspective, rather than from the more familiar Anne Frank story. Based on Gies's book, “Anne Frank Remembered.” 95m/C VHS . Mary Steenburgen, Paul Scofield, Huub Stapel, Eleanor Bron, Miriam Karlin, Lisa Jacobs, Ronald Pickup; D: John Erman; W: William Hanley; M: Richard Rodney Bennett. TV
