I looked up the actress and while it is crazy how hard she was worked for this role, she didn't die soon after the filming - it was about another 20 years before she died. But I will have to look up this film - it is incredibly lauded!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16609161113240681299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5339009608152299571.post-65740598874182160322011-09-26T16:02:29.525-04:002011-09-26T16:02:29.525-04:00Heather,

I forget who the director was, but he drove the actress who played Joan so hard, she died shortly afterwards. But this is an incredibly powerful & harrowing movie so don't watch if you just want to flake out!<br /><br />Best, Cynthia.Cynthiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00225481885465330407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5339009608152299571.post-21468335765819761172011-09-21T19:46:41.545-04:002011-09-21T19:46:41.545-04:00Roberta - thanks for the suggestions.

My netflix list is SO long thanks to these features!<br /><br />Allison - I am like you, I don't know if I think she was really hearing anything or just believed she did - but she is still a polarizing figure today!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16609161113240681299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5339009608152299571.post-73179567687833635152011-09-20T09:50:17.662-04:002011-09-20T09:50:17.662-04:00The other trailer that you have here for Joan of A...The other trailer that you have here for Joan of Arc with Leelee Sobieski also looks fantastic...too bad it's not available in Netflix as yet ;{ I'll be on the look-out for that with all the great actors in it...thanks ;}Robertahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16493412205283777117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5339009608152299571.post-88966672840344935842011-09-20T09:43:52.259-04:002011-09-20T09:43:52.259-04:00How amazing is it that Joan is still a character t...How amazing is it that Joan is still a character that sparks debate. I haven't done my research, but I have my doubts. But even if she was a complete fake, she still makes for great history!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04317813419161397510noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5339009608152299571.post-79751597358865556352011-09-20T09:38:02.289-04:002011-09-20T09:38:02.289-04:00Milla Jovovich is so much better in The Messenger ...Milla Jovovich is so much better in The Messenger than Ingrid Bergman's portrail of Joan of Arc. In my humble opinion ;} I've seen the classic and the acting of the time is over dramatic and the music is worse. I also feel like you don't get enough of the story of the politics of the court as you do in The Messenger. Hope this helps ;}Robertahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16493412205283777117noreply@blogger.com
