Preminger and Greene seem too enchanted with the original material: the movie has an unpleasant, pathetic pride, in a Hollywood classical fashion that just doesn't suit Joan of Arc's story.

My vote for the best George Bernard Shaw play adaptations--yes, above My Fair Lady :o The acting is unfairly judged, as it is marvelous, and the critique is balanced and smart.

Neither Preminger nor Seberg are intelligent or gifted enough to bring this off.
