"Men are impious." We're a week away from the start of the 2019 Cannes Film Festival, and we're beginning to see some marketing for films premiering there. The first full trailer for Bruno Dumont's new Joan of Arc film, titled simply Joan of Arc – or also Jeanne in France, has just debuted. We all know the story of Joan of Arc, and just before this Dumont made the film Jeannette: The Childhood of Joan of Arc. In this new adaptation, Dumont cast a 10-year-old actress named Lise Leplat Prudhomme to play Joan/Jeanne. This choice "re-injects this heroine's timeless cause and ideology with a modernity that highlights both the tragic female condition and the incredible fervor, strength and freedom women show when shackled by societies and archaic virile orders that belittle and alienate them." Also stars Annick Lavieville, Justine Herbez, and Benoit Robail. The film premieres in Cannes, so watch out for reviews and more these next few weeks. ›››
