After watching: "Joan of Arc" and "Braveheart", which I have seen before, are both epic stories of resisting British aggression, and they are also heroic characters created for us. Between the scholar and Joan, I prefer Wallace, who is down-to-earth and rooted in the people of the land, rather than Joan, who uses God's mouth to command the world. Since Joan's communication with God is carried out in a spiritual way, the oracles she can get from prayers, dreams, and even battle formations are very limited and not real, which causes her eyes to always look Her voice was always hesitant and trembling, and the victories she commanded were not the result of clever tricks, but more of a coincidence based on her own subjective speculation, arrogance, and even hysteria. I don't understand why Luc Besson chose such a person to play Joan of Arc. In comparison, Wallace, played by Mel Gibson, is going to be much fuller.
