Movie Reviews of Joan of Arc - Child of War, Soldier of God
Movie Review: A Disappointment
Summary: 2 Stars
Unfortunately having read much on Joan's life, this movie does not bring out the wonder of the accomplishments that Joan was able to perform with the help of God on the battlefield to the great amazement of her generals. There were things she new and predicted that could not have been anything but divinely inspired. This movie misses all that and is far too brief, frequently missing the best points of key events and staying too long in the mundane. I wish I could recommend another movie in its place, but they all fall far short of the books I have read about her. Pick up Mark Twain's Joan Of Arc book to start with and you will get a much better appreciation for the miracles and fiesty personality of this great saint. Twain's book can be appreciated by all ages as with most of his books. Twain claimed it was one of his best books and he spent years in research for it. Look also to anything by R?gine Pernoud for excellent historical information on Joan and proves Twain did his research very well. Don't use this movie to find out about Joan. It does not place her in the best of light and was a disappointment to me.
Summary of Joan of Arc - Child of War, Soldier of God
Joan Of Arc: Child Of War, Soldier Of God An illiterate peasant girl, Jeanne d'Arc emerged at 17 from an obscure corner of war-torn France, rallied a demoralized army and changed the course of history. Inspired by "her voices," she stunned the English invaders, brought about the coronation of the Dauphin and dazzled even her persecutors with her wit and grace. Now go beyond the image of this legendary heroine and discover a fascinating young woman struggling to achieve her own vision in a brutal and dangerous world.
