Editing Guidelines

Please remember these guidelines when editing a film article:

If a non-film article already exists with the name of the film that you are trying to create an article for, disambiguate and use (film) in the title: Film Title (film)
- For more information see: Wikipedia:Naming conventions (films)
When writing an article about a particular film, the general format should be a concise lead section, followed by a plot summary of no more than 900 words, production details, a cast list, a reception section, and references.
Create an Infobox that tells all pertinent information about the film.

[edit] "...murdered and raped... (in that order)"

Seriously or is this just trolling?

-G

It SERIOUSLY is in that order. Watch this clip. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Y-eQfs_oFk

However, since the phrase is used in this New York Times review and is probably where it comes from, perhaps quotations would be in order? http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=980CE3D91F3AF931A25752C1A96F958260 Jaimeastorga2000 22:23, 10 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Criticism about how Joan of Arc was portrayed.

Does the percieved negative light on Joan from this film, portray an English perspective against the French traditional representation? Hasbro 11:25, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

The film seemed confused at the end, leaving me, as a viewer, confused as to what statement was being made about Joan of Arc. 05:51, 23 July 2007 (UTC) John D.

the movie was pure garbage, hollywood will never get it right in making historical movies, especially joan of arc.
