Entertainment Reviews:
...Carl Dreyer's hallmark of world cinema is re-created history. An no movie has done it better...
USA Today
Mannered and arty -- how many close-ups of the same mood is too many? No, not a great film. But a good one.

Esquire Magazine
Here is a deadly tiresome picture that merely makes an attempt to narrate without sound or dialog an allegedly written recorded trial in the 15th or 16th century of Joan of Arc for witchery, leading to her condemnation and burning at the stake.

If ever the divine was captured on film, Dreyer did so in his transcendent 1928 masterpiece.

Rating: 4/5 --
In the hands of the great Danish director Carl Theodor Dreyer it becomes a potent saga of battered faith, vicious bullying and personal torment.

Product Description:
Danish filmmaker Carl Theodor Dreyer's dramatization of the trial and martyrdom of Joan of Arc remains one of the most striking and original films ever made. Shot entirely in close-ups and utilizing techniques years ahead of his contemporaries, Dreyer's deft cinematography and direction captures the intense emotional and spiritual turmoil of the young martyr--immortalized by the French actress Maria Falconetti in her sole screen performance. The original version, thought lost forever, was discovered in the janitor's closet of a Norwegian mental institution in 1981.
