TMBDOS! Episode 342: "The Passion of Joan of Arc" (1928).
Lee, Daniel, and the returning Lady Leah cover a classic of the silent era, once thought lost, Carl Theodor Dreyer's "The Passion of Joan of Arc" (1928), featuring one of, if not the greatest, performance ever captured on film, from Maria Falconetti, starring as the titular Joan of Arc. The history of the film and its various versions are briefly touched upon, and the hosts dig into the various lenses the film can be viewed through, as well as spending time talking about Dreyer's rule-breaking filming techniques he employed to make the film. Will Lee manage to struggle through reading all the French names in the cast? All this, and the cast also talks about what they've watched recently. We are putting you, the listener, on trial! Confess! You will listen to this episode! Repent!
