That doesn't make the Mona Lisa a photograph; it's still a painting. The images of Anne Frank above are film images. Yes, YouTube shows you a video version, but referring to the medium in question as "the only known ..." clearly references the original, which would be film. (Again, using the comparison above, if someone had found a painting of Anne Frank, it would not be referred to as the "only known photograph" simply because it appears on Flickr.) Yes, it may be pedantic, but in writing, it's often necessary to be so in order to be clear. @PNutty – Unless you’ve been to the Louvre, the only images you’ve seen of the Mona Lisa are photographs.

Ever since Anne Frank stood there all unaware that this Doom lurked in her future, other children have stood there just like her. In my youth, it could haqve been my sister and me that stood just a few blocks and balconies away to look at some event down on the street. This girl stood there unaware of coming death in a country and a city that at that time still were rather safe. Similar situations happened later in Kosovo and other places. Like this could happen to any child at any time... I find that chilling to the bone. Oh and one other thing-

The article mentions "filmed" and "film" so I think "video" can be used to refer to what we're viewing. But we're both probably splitting hairs... With that said, I hope your observation isn't the only thing that touched you from this story/post/blog/article/etc. Wes – I’m pretty sure when I clicked the link that YouTube didn’t load film into a projector.

Do recall, however, that they did exchange channukah gifts while in hiding. Jokes are better when they don't create such immediate dissonance, unless it's absurdist humour, which this isn't.
