She deserves a award for her part she did a fantastic job and what a great story brought to life it really hits you.

[@thehuntfamilytv]

the acting in it really makes you think your there. spot on

[@clementinepeaches]

The series was a beautiful depiction of Miep’s loyalty and integrity. A scene that impacted me was when the Germans found the Franks and Miep could’ve said “I was just a secretary” but she kept her integrity and didn’t lie; instead, she pleaded for her friends, risking her life once again for them. She truly cared about the Frank family and I see her as an example of loyalty and integrity. Of course, the excellent performance from Bel Powley made it so much more amazing; she had such captivating eyes, a great personality, and such a sweet voice.
