Magnificent and spectacular historical television film based on Joan of Arc's life, 17 November 2004
7/10
Author: ma-cortes from Santander Spain

The movie is set in ¨Hundred years war¨ developed between 1337 and 1453(date of downfall of Constantinopla by Turkish). The historical deeds are the following : Henry V vanquishes Charles VI in Agincourt (1415) and takes over on Normandy . Charles VI of France signs ¨Troyes treatise¨ in which Henry V is wedded to Charles's daughter. Later on, Henry VI of England proclaims himself king of France but Joan of Arc proclaims in Bourges to Charles VII as king who's after crowned in Reims . Joan of Arc acting as a divine mission defeats English army in Orleans.But she's captured by the Borgoneses and is handed over to English authorities and they fire her by heretic and witch in Rouen.

Runtime movie is overlong , approx. three hours , but is neither boring, nor dull but entertaining. The battle scenarios are very good designed, there are thousands of extras and the struggles are breathtaking. The ending trial in that she's condemned is very interesting and the sentence at the burning pole is overwhelming. Lelee Sobieski interpretation is riveting likeness to Neal Patrick Harris as Charles VII. Peter O'Toole as the Bishop is excellent. The support cast is satisfying : Jacqueline Bisset (the mother), Powers Boothe(the father), Olimpia Dukakis( the nun)and Peter Strauss (the captain).

The yarn will appeal to historical event buffs. Rating : 7/10 . Worth viewing the picture.
