Joan of Arc (Bergman)

The life story of one of history's most remarkable heroines is boldly brought to the screen in this Academy Award winning production, an epic tale of faith, bravery and the ultimate sacrifice. Ingrid Bergman stars as the 15th century peasant girl driven by the divine power of God, who famously sets out to not only inspire her people but triumphantly lead an army against her British oppressors. In the wake of Joan's spectacular success, the newly crowned King of France (Jose Ferrer) soon becomes wary of her prominent rise, suspicious of her growing popularity amongst the people of France. The corruption of power leads to the ultimate betrayal, forcing Joan into a fiery corner to ultimately face her toughest battle of all.
