MURILLO III-2 JOAN OF ARC

I.

Summary She was a brave soldier; she believed that it was her calling. Ten years before her death, Joan hears voices. Six years later, from the village of Domremy, she begins her mission to unite France under King Charles. First she leads a defense of Vaucouleurs against the Burgundians, and then obtains safe passage to Charles, the Dauphin. He uses her, as the embodiment of the mythical "Maid of Lorraine," to raise an army, and he sends her to the rescue of Orlans. After Charles is crowned, Joan leads a disastrous campaign in Paris, where her brother dies. Then she's the victim of Charles's manipulations: she's captured in Burgundy, sold to the English, examined by Bishop Cauchon, found a heretic by the Inquisition, and burned at the stake. Settings From the costumes down to the blood-looking make-ups are very realistic. The haircuts are good; they give that effect of being real. Its like the movie is really taken from way back. The place where they took the shoot complies with the story. Every scene is much more likely to have that nostalgic effect on me; the drama and the lines. Actors and Actresses I only have to say one thing; the cast gave justice to the storyline.
