I mean the way it start and how it went right into the Holocaust, it was simply beautiful, the movie was touching and griping it was sad but the acting was wonderful, and Ms. Kirsten Dunst, was at her best. Loved It! that is all I have to say. This movie was GREAT!

Now when my daughter so carelessly and innocently hurts my feelings by not understanding where I come from, I remember this movie and thank God that her life, like Hannah's young life, is so untainted and whole and good and free of abuse of any kind that she actually has the time to think of "normal" teenage things instead of horror. I will never wish my daughter understood me better again. The only way she ever could understand me is to be as horrifically abused as I was. Hannah had to go back and visit the past so she would understand her ancestors. I do not want my daughter to go back, I only want her to move forward. <br />I would recommend this movie to anyone who is having a generational problem with adults who have been through some kind of trauma and the children in their lives who do not understand their emotional scars. Then I would have a discussion period afterwards, comparing the aftereffects of the holocaust with the emotional scarring of adult survivors of child abuse. We have all been through our own holocausts.
