Jeannette: The childhood of Joan of Arc
《童女贞德》

French director Bruno Dumont explores Joan of Arc's spiritual and patriotic awakening as a child in this musical film based on Charles Péguy's 1910 poem The Mystery of the Charity of Joan of Arc, which looked at the visions that inspired her to join the fight against the English during the Hundred Years' War. Dumont focuses on how the young girl transformed from peasant to warrior, arguing that: "Everyone knows her story in adult life and her end but I don't want to re-visit what's already been done. What hasn't been explored so much is her childhood… What interests me is how Jeannette became Joan of Arc."
查尔斯•皮盖伊1910年的诗歌《圣女贞德仁慈之谜》描写了是什么鼓舞贞德在百年战争期间加入反抗英国的斗争。法国导演布鲁诺•杜蒙以这首诗歌为基础，拍摄了歌舞片《童女贞德》。该片讲述了童年贞德灵魂和爱国之心觉醒的故事。杜蒙重点刻画了童女贞德如何从农民转变成一名勇士的过程，他说，“所有人都知道圣女贞德成年后的故事和她的结局，而我不想再老调重弹。她的童年故事还有很多没有被挖掘……而珍妮特如何转变为圣女贞德才是吸引我的地方。”
