The 150-minute long work, the well-known saint, the clever director Luc Besson shows a different story of Joan of Arc. The title of the film is "The Messenger: The Story of Joan of Arc". The magic lies in the word messenger: the messenger who did not say who she was. In an era when science was so developed, Luc Besson naturally would not absolutely deify Joan of Arc. He took a compromise: the staunch believers believed that Joan of Arc was cared for and redeemed by God; skeptics could also understand that the neurotic Joan of Arc had symptoms of delusional disease.

Back to the title again. Human force, strategy, king's power, etc., had to be disguised in the face of theocracy, bowing their heads and accepting the blessing of anointing to gain legitimacy and nominal justice. In medieval Europe, adhering to the divine right of the monarch, the social power of the Holy See was very powerful, and both Britain and France put on the cloak of religion. The power of the Holy See comes from the devout and fanatical religious beliefs of peasant girls like Joan of Arc. Most people only regard religion as a tool, while Joan of Arc regards their life as the whole. Firm religious beliefs frighten those in power, frighten the clergy, and fill the bottom of society with hope and confidence. A firm belief is a more powerful force. Before the end of her life, Joan of Arc also realized that she had spontaneously exploited the fears and expectations of the gods.

Is there a more powerful force? some. It is the ability of human beings to face up to their own hearts, constantly reflect on their mistakes, constantly purify their greed, constantly overcome their fears, and pursue and create a better life. Joan of Arc scare away the British army with a few shouts. It is better to say that in the name of God, most people have reached a consensus of disgust for the war; God did not let Joan of Arc escape the pain of burning at the stake, but Joan of Arc's inner reflection has allowed her to gain Mental peace.

The Messenger: The Story of Joan of Arc quotes

  • Joan of Arc: This morning God gave us a great victory, but it is nothing compared to what he is ready to give us now. I know you are all tired and hungry, but I swear to you that even if these English were hanging from the clouds by their fingertips we would pull them down before nightfall. Now let all those who love me... follow me! Follow me!

  • Aulon: But how do you know that these voices aren't just really you?

    Joan of Arc: They are me. That's how God speaks to me. Even you could hear them if you listened hard enough.
