I just seen this film last night for the first time on TCM and it was Amazing!
Anyone who sees this film and does not like it is beyond me!
What really made this film so incredible for was the time is was made.
1928!
The acting, directing, editing and camera shots are WAY ahead of its time!
These are movie making methods American audiences would not see in American movies until the late 1960's and early 1970's and that are missing in most of Hollywood movies today!
It blows my mind how a masterpiece 50 years ahead of its time such as
"The Passion of Joan of Arc" was made in 1928 and 77 years later Hollywood still makes crap like "White Chicks" and "From Justin to Kelly"
The performance by Maria Falconetti is so stunning that the Academy should just give her an Oscar regardless of the fact her performance was 77 years ago!
It was an Honor to have seen this film!
