What I liked

In addition to learning bits of history I had not known, I enjoyed the actor’s occasionally breaking the fourth wall and making eye contact to drive home the relevance to the treatment of women today.

What I didn't like

Nothing occurs to me.

My overall impression

Eye-opening re-imagining of who “Jeanne d’Arc” really was and what motivated her. The actor fully inhabited her character, building a moving and credible case for how she achieved all she did, why she suffered so grievously, and why this should matter to us today.
