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
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.

Daily Telegraph (UK)
Dreyer's radical approach to constructing space and the slow intensity of his mobile style make this "difficult" in the sense that, like all the greatest films, it reinvents the world from the ground up.

Rating: 10/10 --
Falconetti's visage in Carl Th. Dreyer's silent classic La Passion de Jeanne d'Arc produces some of the most indelible images in film history.

Film Pulse
This is neither a hopeful nor a hopeless film, but one of feeling so colossal and resplendent, it can't be constrained by prison or consumed by fire.

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.
