Plot: Dreyer's retelling of the trial and martyrdom of Joan of Arc remains one of the most immediate--and startlingly intimate--works of cinema ever produced. Based upon a meticulous study of the transcripts from Joan's trial for heresy in 1431, Dreyer's approach eschewed the grand-scale typical of the epic silent productions of his contemporaries in favor of a stark, angular cinematography filmed almost entirely in close-ups. The result is a stunning, emotional film, carried by French actress Falconetti's inspired, haunting performance, which remains unparalleled to this day.
