Review of The Messenger: The Story of Joan of Arc (1999) by Emily C — 09 Jun 2011
When Joan walks into the royal court for the first time to plead her cause, to free France of English poachers, they are already whispering about the peasant girl some claim as a saint. Except for not seeing how she came to be whispered about I really enjoyed Besson's tale (pro-French and anti-Catholic) that underlines how any act of faith is ultimately a dance with self doubt.
It may is may not be of importance that Besson and Jovovich were divorcing as this filmed, so you decide.
