Full of flawlessly shot frames, striking camera compositions and a tearfully relevant performance from Falconetti, The Passion of Joan of Arc is one of the most proficient, breathtaking and emotionally grabbing silent period films ever contributed to celluloid. Never before has there been something this big, bold and bright in cinema. Ever.

For god's sake this could be restored in a version close to Dreyer's original. His shots on Falconetti's face are very impressive and so is her acting. Falconetti's facial expressions are just extraordinary. Together with Richard Einhorn's score, Passion is brutally captivating. 09-03-2010

Good acting and strong condemnation of the Church in the middle ages. The visuals are not as good as some say, the idea behind the shots are good, and you can see the care taken, but they don't seem as well framed as they could be.

Strictly-silent is my preferred method of watching [Voices of Light is alright, I just prefer to think the images themselves are all that's needed] - I feel drained after watching this. Falconetti gives a performance in under 90 min. that eclipses most other actors entire body of work. Never has composition mattered so much.

Best silent film and one of the best films ever. Can a movie get much more perfect than this? I especially like how completely minimal it is, serving to make it even more engaging than if it had elaborate sets and lasted more than just 80 minutes.

Dreyer's The Passion of Joan of Arc is an absolutely incredible film. It is one of the most rarest pleasures I have ever experienced. Falconetti's performance was so true, and lifelike, that it felt so extremely real, as if the trial was happening right before my eyes. Every shot is magnificent, and the close ups on Falconetti were so expertly done, this film is damn close to perfection. Worth every second, and with the Voices of Light score in the background, you really can't go wrong.
