One of the greatest gems of cinema

Rating: 10/10 (22 June 2013)

The passion of Joan of ark is without a doubt one of the best films of all time.It features amazing acting from Maria Falconetti and everyone else in the film. It portrays the trial of Joan of ark and her hardships facing her story.
The film has an odd back story which adds to the mysterious nature of the film after it was destroyed by accident or on purpose the director had to recreate the film from rejected footage. The film was lost until it was found until it was found in a mental institution.
This is a film anyone who holds a passion for cinema should watch and Maria Falconetti gives one of the greatest female performances in history how she can give such an emotional performance without saying a word.
