Mark Twain once said, “Whatever thing men call great, look for it in Joan of Arc, and there you will find it.” Joan is not the exception that proves the rule—she had the brave, independent heart that beats in all women—in all people. This film about the life of the French martyr is one of the indisputable masterpieces of the silent era. With a wealth of unflinching close-ups, it creates a frightening intimacy between Joan of Arc and her tormentors. D: Carl Theodore Dreyer, France, 1928, 77 minutes
