Joan of Arc: The Messenger

Luc Besson, 1999

Film Description

Tormented by visions, young Joan (Milla Jovovich) leaves her country home, seeks out the heir to the French throne, and tells him that God has charged her with the task of freeing France from the English. Granted an army, Joan fulfils her promise, but is later betrayed and tried as a witch.

A reworking of the story of the Maid of Orleans, Besson's Joan (the 'Babe of Orleans' perhaps) is truly his own, a flashily-shot extravagance in which a 15th century girl becomes the neurotic heroine of a history lesson for the slacker generation.
