    One of Dreyer's greatest works. The film was originally destroyed by fire, but after many twists and turns, a precious film was discovered, which was restored in 1986. The lighting of the whole film is full of artistic perfection and perfect modeling, just like a classical portrait oil painting, which vividly reflects the personality of the characters. Although silent films are not good at expressing dialogue, a large number of facial close-ups and montages undoubtedly show this trial...

    It's really good, so good. Let alone 1928, no one would dare to do it in 2028, and no one would be able to do it. The heroine's performance is completely unsurpassed and can be described as great. After reading it, I really understand what is the greatest soul density. In a hundred years, De Layet's Joan of Arc will still be the most unique and best-watched...

    A large number of close-ups and close-ups, using the perspective to express the comedy, and the close-up to express the tragedy. Every kind of mature art cannot be separated from the process of development from low-level to high-level. The silent era, as the foundation stage of film art, can never be forgotten and...

    Karl Theodore Delaire's last silent film is very experimental. The film is almost entirely composed of close-ups of people's faces and a few close-up shots, without positioning shots, which hits people's hearts directly. The close-up shots of Joan of Arc and the Judge use overhead and vertical shots respectively, highlighting the contrast between strengths and weaknesses. The heroine René Falconetti was discovered by the director in a street comedy. This is her only screen role and a...

    Faith and honor are really far away from me. Throughout the article, I was racking my brains to figure out how to use inferior tricks to trick the priest into escape. Judging the god horse, he clearly wants you to die, and if you really die, I will wipe...

    face! The lens focuses honestly and intently on those shocking faces. The minimalist style of the scene design makes the actor's facial expressions the entire content of the screen. The technical limitations of the silent era have strengthened the visual impact of the film. Simple , Direct and pure. From this point of view, "The Dilemma of Joan of Arc" may be the most expressive film since its birth, and it is a success that is difficult to reproduce. The cast and crew from different countries...
