#SIFF2019# The fifth part, the end~ This is very expensive, 80 yuan for 65 minutes, although the effect of the Paragon Palace is not mentioned. After watching five films, I found out that I didn't watch a single English film this year.

Compared with Dreyer's "The Passion of Joan of Arc", where a large number of facial emotions are piled up to create a powerful and exaggerated expression, Bresson uses cold camera language and emotionless question and answer to strip away the mythological color of Joan of Arc, Examining the religious issues it raises from a human perspective is the charm of minimalism and a textual example of structuralism. If Dreyer emphasized the "holy" part, Bresson focused on the "female" part. In the puppet-like performance unique to her actors, Joan of Arc is just an ordinary person like everyone else. She has no sympathy and heroism, but only insists on her beliefs, and makes a weak but firm voice in the face of power. There is a strong contrast between the beginning and the end. They are all written by footsteps. The beginning is like the holy back of the Virgin Mary and the great fraternity, and the end is like the steps of Jesus' suffering and self-sacrifice. However, they all turned to ashes in the deafening drum beat . Just like the eyes of Joan of Arc through the eyes of the wall in the movie, Bresson wants us to see through the relationship between the subject and the object of faith through the cloak of religious hypocrisy, reflect on our faults, and strengthen our beliefs.
