Editor's Note
In these two extraordinary companion films French New Wave director Jacques Rivette offers a fresh, brilliant reinterpretation of one of the great historical figures of the millennium, Joan of Arc. Named one of the year's ten best films by Cahiers du Cinema. THE BATTLES: An amazing portrayal of Joan of Arc's life, from her birth to her efforts to convince the French that she has been sent by God and can defeat the English, to the defeat of the English at Orleans. THE PRISONS: The second portion of Rivette's masterful Joan of Arc saga depicts Joan's occupation of Compeigne, her desertion by her men, and her subsequent imprisonment and death sentence.
