The Art of Emotion: Why The Passion of Joan of Arc Still Shocks Audiences

WEBVTT

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.000
<v SPEAKER_00>Welcome back to the Untold Secrets of Iconic Films Podcast Show.

00:00:04.240 --> 00:00:11.119
<v SPEAKER_00>Tonight we step into one of the most haunting, powerful, and emotionally raw films ever created in cinema history.

00:00:11.359 --> 00:00:17.679
<v SPEAKER_00>A film that does not rely on spectacle, nor color, nor sound in the way modern audiences expect.

00:00:17.839 --> 00:00:20.879
<v SPEAKER_00>Instead, it relies on something far more dangerous.

00:00:21.199 --> 00:00:26.399
<v SPEAKER_00>Human emotion captured so closely that it almost feels uncomfortable to watch.

00:00:26.640 --> 00:00:29.280
<v SPEAKER_00>We are talking about the passion of Joan of Arc.

00:00:29.679 --> 00:00:34.159
<v SPEAKER_00>A film that was not just made to tell a story, but to make you feel a trial.

00:00:34.320 --> 00:00:40.719
<v SPEAKER_00>To experience silence as suffering, to see faith, fear, and injustice reflected in a single human face.

00:00:41.520 --> 00:00:45.520
<v SPEAKER_00>To understand this film, we must first understand the woman at its center.

00:00:45.840 --> 00:00:48.079
<v SPEAKER_00>Joan of Arc was not born into power.

00:00:48.320 --> 00:00:53.280
<v SPEAKER_00>She was not a queen, nor a noble, nor someone history expected to remember.

00:00:53.439 --> 00:00:58.000
<v SPEAKER_00>She was a young peasant girl from France who claimed she was guided by divine voices.

00:00:58.240 --> 00:01:02.560
<v SPEAKER_00>She believed she had been chosen to lead her country during one of its darkest wars.

00:01:02.799 --> 00:01:09.439
<v SPEAKER_00>In a world dominated by political power and religious authority, such a claim was not seen as inspiration.

00:01:09.599 --> 00:01:11.120
<v SPEAKER_00>It was seen as threat.

00:01:11.359 --> 00:01:14.159
<v SPEAKER_00>And that is where her journey into history begins.

00:01:14.560 --> 00:01:18.239
<v SPEAKER_00>The film does not show her as a myth or a symbol at first.

00:01:18.480 --> 00:01:25.599
<v SPEAKER_00>It shows her as a human being standing alone in a courtroom filled with men who already believe they know the truth about her.

00:01:25.840 --> 00:01:30.319
<v SPEAKER_00>What makes this film extraordinary is not what is said, but how it is shown.

00:01:30.560 --> 00:01:32.719
<v SPEAKER_00>The camera does not stay distant.

00:01:32.879 --> 00:01:37.680
<v SPEAKER_00>It moves closer and closer until faces fill the entire screen.

00:01:37.920 --> 00:01:43.519
<v SPEAKER_00>Every blink, every tear, every trembling expression becomes part of the storytelling.

00:01:43.760 --> 00:01:45.920
<v SPEAKER_00>You are not watching Joan's trial.

00:01:46.239 --> 00:01:47.760
<v SPEAKER_00>You are inside it.

00:01:48.000 --> 00:01:53.280
<v SPEAKER_00>The director, Carl Theodore Dreyer, made a radical decision that changed cinema forever.

00:01:53.439 --> 00:02:07.359
<v SPEAKER_00>He stripped away distractions, no grand sets that demand attention, no dramatic visual effects, no unnecessary movement, only faces, light, shadow, emotion.

00:02:07.599 --> 00:02:12.960
<v SPEAKER_00>At the center of it all is Renee Jane Falconetti, the actress who plays Joan of Arc.

00:02:13.120 --> 00:02:18.080
<v SPEAKER_00>Her performance is often described not as acting, but as suffering captured on film.

00:02:18.240 --> 00:02:22.159
<v SPEAKER_00>She does not perform emotions, she lives them in front of the camera.

00:02:22.400 --> 00:02:31.599
<v SPEAKER_00>There are moments where she looks upward, not with theatrical drama, but with quiet desperation, as if searching for something beyond the world that is judging her.

00:02:31.840 --> 00:02:38.479
<v SPEAKER_00>Other moments show her fear, not as screaming panic, but as internal collapse contained within silence.

00:02:38.800 --> 00:02:41.199
<v SPEAKER_00>This is what makes the film so powerful.

00:02:41.439 --> 00:02:46.000
<v SPEAKER_00>It does not tell you what to feel, it forces you to feel it yourself.

00:02:46.240 --> 00:02:48.560
<v SPEAKER_00>The trial scenes are especially intense.

00:02:48.800 --> 00:02:52.560
<v SPEAKER_00>Clergymen question her beliefs, her visions, her loyalty.

00:02:52.719 --> 00:02:56.080
<v SPEAKER_00>Every question is a weapon designed to break her certainty.

00:02:56.319 --> 00:02:59.759
<v SPEAKER_00>But Joan does not respond like someone trying to win an argument.

00:03:00.000 --> 00:03:03.840
<v SPEAKER_00>She responds like someone protecting something sacred inside herself.

00:03:04.080 --> 00:03:07.199
<v SPEAKER_00>And that is where the true conflict of the film exists.

00:03:07.439 --> 00:03:16.159
<v SPEAKER_00>It is not just a legal trial, it is a battle between faith and authority, between personal belief and institutional power.

00:03:16.400 --> 00:03:20.800
<v SPEAKER_00>Between one young woman and an entire system that refuses to understand her.

00:03:21.120 --> 00:03:27.120
<v SPEAKER_00>As the questioning continues, the tension builds not through action, but through repetition.

00:03:27.599 --> 00:03:32.400
<v SPEAKER_00>Faces lean in, eyes narrow, silence stretches.

00:03:32.719 --> 00:03:37.199
<v SPEAKER_00>And in that silence, the audience begins to feel something deeper than plot.

00:03:37.439 --> 00:03:39.360
<v SPEAKER_00>They begin to feel pressure.

00:03:39.599 --> 00:03:41.280
<v SPEAKER_00>The pressure of judgment.

00:03:55.919 --> 00:03:57.840
<v SPEAKER_00>But here, silence is not empty.

00:03:58.000 --> 00:04:02.000
<v SPEAKER_00>It is heavy, it is emotional, it is almost physical.

00:04:02.240 --> 00:04:05.120
<v SPEAKER_00>You can feel it pressing against the characters.

00:04:05.439 --> 00:04:07.840
<v SPEAKER_00>You can feel it pressing against Joan.

00:04:08.080 --> 00:04:16.240
<v SPEAKER_00>As her trial moves forward, she is offered opportunities to save herself, to deny her visions, to accept the authority of the court.

00:04:16.560 --> 00:04:20.720
<v SPEAKER_00>But each time her responses reveal something deeper than stubbornness.

00:04:21.279 --> 00:04:23.040
<v SPEAKER_00>They reveal conviction.

00:04:23.279 --> 00:04:29.199
<v SPEAKER_00>Whether that conviction is faith, delusion, or destiny is left for the viewer to decide.

00:04:29.360 --> 00:04:32.480
<v SPEAKER_00>And that ambiguity is what makes the film timeless.

00:04:32.720 --> 00:04:37.600
<v SPEAKER_00>There is no simple answer, no clear villain, no easy resolution.

00:04:38.160 --> 00:04:40.879
<v SPEAKER_00>Instead, there is only human complexity.

00:04:41.120 --> 00:04:45.120
<v SPEAKER_00>As Joan's fate becomes clearer, the film shifts emotionally.

00:04:45.360 --> 00:04:49.439
<v SPEAKER_00>What began as interrogation becomes something closer to witnessing.

00:04:49.680 --> 00:04:52.399
<v SPEAKER_00>The camera no longer feels like an observer.

00:04:52.720 --> 00:04:55.040
<v SPEAKER_00>It feels like a witness to suffering.

00:04:55.439 --> 00:04:58.639
<v SPEAKER_00>And in that suffering, something unexpected happens.

00:04:58.959 --> 00:05:01.839
<v SPEAKER_00>Joan becomes more than a historical figure.

00:05:02.079 --> 00:05:03.839
<v SPEAKER_00>She becomes a mirror.

00:05:04.079 --> 00:05:08.000
<v SPEAKER_00>A mirror reflecting how society treats those who do not conform.

00:05:08.399 --> 00:05:11.839
<v SPEAKER_00>How belief systems can become instruments of control.

00:05:12.160 --> 00:05:16.240
<v SPEAKER_00>How truth is often decided not by reality, but by power.

00:05:16.480 --> 00:05:21.439
<v SPEAKER_00>The final moments of the film are among the most emotionally intense in silent cinema history.

00:05:21.680 --> 00:05:35.040
<v SPEAKER_00>Without relying on words, without relying on explanation, the film communicates something universal: fear of death, acceptance of fate, and the fragile boundary between human courage and human breaking point.

00:05:35.360 --> 00:05:39.759
<v SPEAKER_00>As Joan faces her final moments, the world around her becomes distant.

00:05:39.920 --> 00:05:44.160
<v SPEAKER_00>The crowd, the judges, the structures of authority all fade into background.

00:05:44.399 --> 00:05:48.079
<v SPEAKER_00>What remains is a single human being confronting the end.

00:05:48.319 --> 00:05:51.759
<v SPEAKER_00>And in that moment, the film stops being about history.

00:05:52.000 --> 00:05:54.399
<v SPEAKER_00>It becomes about existence itself.

00:05:54.639 --> 00:05:59.040
<v SPEAKER_00>The passion of Joan of Arc is not simply a film you watch once and forget.

00:05:59.279 --> 00:06:01.519
<v SPEAKER_00>It is a film that stays with you.

00:06:01.680 --> 00:06:06.000
<v SPEAKER_00>Not because of what it shows, but because of what it makes you feel long after it ends.

00:06:06.160 --> 00:06:11.120
<v SPEAKER_00>It challenges the viewer to think about belief, justice, and the cost of conviction.

00:06:11.360 --> 00:06:14.639
<v SPEAKER_00>It asks a silent question that has no easy answer.

00:06:14.959 --> 00:06:19.279
<v SPEAKER_00>What happens when truth and authority collide, and neither is willing to bend?

00:06:19.680 --> 00:06:23.120
<v SPEAKER_00>And perhaps more importantly, it asks another question.

00:06:23.360 --> 00:06:26.480
<v SPEAKER_00>What does it mean to remain human under judgment?

00:06:26.720 --> 00:06:31.600
<v SPEAKER_00>Even today, nearly a century later, the film feels modern in its emotional intensity.

00:06:31.839 --> 00:06:38.000
<v SPEAKER_00>In a world filled with noise, distraction, and constant movement, its silence feels almost revolutionary.

00:06:38.240 --> 00:06:41.839
<v SPEAKER_00>It reminds us that cinema does not always need words to speak.

00:06:42.000 --> 00:06:44.160
<v SPEAKER_00>Sometimes a face is enough.

00:06:44.720 --> 00:06:47.600
<v SPEAKER_00>Sometimes silence is louder than dialogue.

00:06:47.839 --> 00:06:52.480
<v SPEAKER_00>And sometimes a single human emotion can carry an entire story.

00:06:52.720 --> 00:06:57.920
<v SPEAKER_00>This is why The Passion of Joan of Arc remains one of the most iconic films ever created.

00:06:58.160 --> 00:07:02.480
<v SPEAKER_00>Not because it entertains, but because it confronts.

00:07:02.720 --> 00:07:04.560
<v SPEAKER_00>It confronts faith.

00:07:04.879 --> 00:07:06.560
<v SPEAKER_00>It confronts power.

00:07:06.800 --> 00:07:09.040
<v SPEAKER_00>It confronts humanity itself.

00:07:09.360 --> 00:07:11.519
<v SPEAKER_00>And that is where we will leave you tonight.

00:07:11.680 --> 00:07:17.680
<v SPEAKER_00>With a story not just of Joan of Arc, but of what it means to stand alone when the world refuses to listen.

00:07:18.000 --> 00:07:22.639
<v SPEAKER_00>Thank you for listening to the Untold Secrets of Iconic Films Podcast Show.

00:07:22.879 --> 00:07:31.600
<v SPEAKER_00>Tonight, we continue our journey into one of the most emotionally overwhelming and visually groundbreaking films ever made in cinema history.

00:07:31.920 --> 00:07:33.759
<v SPEAKER_00>The Passion of Joan of Arc.

00:07:34.079 --> 00:07:41.120
<v SPEAKER_00>A film that does not shout but whisper so deeply that it echoes inside your mind long after the screen goes dark.

00:07:41.439 --> 00:07:46.399
<v SPEAKER_00>A film that does not rely on action, but on something far more powerful.

00:07:46.879 --> 00:07:48.879
<v SPEAKER_00>Human truth under pressure.

00:07:49.120 --> 00:07:53.680
<v SPEAKER_00>Before we go deeper into the film itself, we need to understand something very important.

00:07:54.160 --> 00:08:03.199
<v SPEAKER_00>This is not just a story about a trial, it is a story about perception, about how society decides who is innocent and who is guilty.

00:08:03.439 --> 00:08:08.480
<v SPEAKER_00>Not always based on truth, but based on fear, politics, and belief systems.

00:08:08.639 --> 00:08:15.839
<v SPEAKER_00>And at the center of that storm stands a young woman who believes she is chosen by something greater than herself, Joan of Arc.

00:08:16.160 --> 00:08:19.680
<v SPEAKER_00>A teenager who stepped into history carrying nothing but faith.

00:08:20.000 --> 00:08:24.319
<v SPEAKER_00>And that faith would either make her immortal or destroy her.

00:08:24.480 --> 00:08:31.120
<v SPEAKER_00>When director Carl Theodore Dreyer began creating this film, he did something extremely unusual for his time.

00:08:31.519 --> 00:08:33.919
<v SPEAKER_00>He rejected cinematic luxury.

00:08:34.159 --> 00:08:37.519
<v SPEAKER_00>No grand medieval castles dominating the screen.

00:08:37.840 --> 00:08:40.159
<v SPEAKER_00>No heroic battle sequences.

00:08:40.480 --> 00:08:44.720
<v SPEAKER_00>No visual distractions that could pull attention away from emotion.

00:08:44.960 --> 00:08:48.240
<v SPEAKER_00>Instead, he focused almost entirely on faces.

00:08:48.639 --> 00:08:49.919
<v SPEAKER_00>Human faces.

00:08:50.159 --> 00:08:54.559
<v SPEAKER_00>Because in his vision, the human face was the most powerful landscape in cinema.

00:08:54.960 --> 00:08:57.919
<v SPEAKER_00>And once you watch this film, you understand why.

00:08:58.159 --> 00:09:02.080
<v SPEAKER_00>The entire story unfolds almost like a psychological excavation.

00:09:02.320 --> 00:09:09.759
<v SPEAKER_00>We are not just watching events, we are watching emotional pressure being applied slowly, frame by frame.

00:09:10.159 --> 00:09:13.759
<v SPEAKER_00>At the heart of this experience is Renee John Falconetti.

00:09:13.919 --> 00:09:19.039
<v SPEAKER_00>Her performance as Joan of Arc is often described by critics as one of the greatest in film history.

00:09:19.360 --> 00:09:22.240
<v SPEAKER_00>But even that description feels too small.

00:09:22.559 --> 00:09:28.240
<v SPEAKER_00>Because what she delivers is not performance in the traditional sense, it is exposure.

00:09:28.480 --> 00:09:33.679
<v SPEAKER_00>Every expression feels raw, unprotected, almost too real to be acted.

00:09:33.919 --> 00:09:37.200
<v SPEAKER_00>There is a moment in the film where Jones simply looks upward.

00:09:37.679 --> 00:09:44.559
<v SPEAKER_00>There is no dialogue, no explanation, only eyes filled with something between hope and fear.

00:09:44.799 --> 00:09:48.480
<v SPEAKER_00>And in that moment, the entire meaning of the film shifts.

00:09:48.799 --> 00:09:51.039
<v SPEAKER_00>We are no longer watching a trial.

00:09:51.279 --> 00:09:54.240
<v SPEAKER_00>We are witnessing a human soul being questioned.

00:09:54.480 --> 00:09:58.639
<v SPEAKER_00>The courtroom scenes in this film are structured like psychological warfare.

00:09:58.879 --> 00:10:05.600
<v SPEAKER_00>Each question from the judges is designed not just to extract answers, but to destabilize belief.

00:10:05.840 --> 00:10:12.799
<v SPEAKER_00>They do not only question what Joan claims, they question her identity, her sanity, her truth.

00:10:13.039 --> 00:10:23.840
<v SPEAKER_00>And this is where the film becomes timeless, because it reflects something that still exists in the modern world: the struggle between individual belief and institutional authority.

00:10:24.240 --> 00:10:28.720
<v SPEAKER_00>As Joan answers, her responses are not defensive in the usual sense.

00:10:28.960 --> 00:10:30.799
<v SPEAKER_00>They are deeply personal.

00:10:30.960 --> 00:10:32.960
<v SPEAKER_00>She does not argue to win.

00:10:33.200 --> 00:10:38.240
<v SPEAKER_00>She speaks as if she is trying to protect something invisible but sacred within her.

00:10:38.399 --> 00:10:41.840
<v SPEAKER_00>And the more she speaks, the more the tension increases.

00:10:42.159 --> 00:10:45.360
<v SPEAKER_00>Because certainty becomes dangerous in a world built on control.

00:10:45.759 --> 00:10:50.080
<v SPEAKER_00>The camera work in this film plays a crucial role in building emotional intensity.

00:10:50.399 --> 00:10:53.120
<v SPEAKER_00>Dreyer often uses extreme close-ups.

00:10:53.360 --> 00:10:55.759
<v SPEAKER_00>So close that you feel uncomfortable.

00:10:56.080 --> 00:10:59.519
<v SPEAKER_00>So close that you cannot escape the emotion on screen.

00:10:59.759 --> 00:11:02.799
<v SPEAKER_00>There is no distance between the viewer and the subject.

00:11:03.120 --> 00:11:08.399
<v SPEAKER_00>You are inside the emotion, not watching it, experiencing it.

00:11:08.639 --> 00:11:11.759
<v SPEAKER_00>And this technique was revolutionary for its time.

00:11:12.720 --> 00:11:16.879
<v SPEAKER_00>It changed how filmmakers understood emotional storytelling forever.

00:11:17.120 --> 00:11:27.200
<v SPEAKER_00>As the trial continues, Joan is pressured to deny her visions, to accept the authority of the court, to surrender her truth in exchange for survival.

00:11:27.440 --> 00:11:30.799
<v SPEAKER_00>And here the film introduces its most painful question.

00:11:31.120 --> 00:11:32.480
<v SPEAKER_00>What is more important?

00:11:32.960 --> 00:11:34.399
<v SPEAKER_00>Truth or life?

00:11:34.720 --> 00:11:36.720
<v SPEAKER_00>Conviction or safety?

00:11:37.039 --> 00:11:39.120
<v SPEAKER_00>Belief or survival?

00:11:39.360 --> 00:11:42.159
<v SPEAKER_00>The film never answers this question for you.

00:11:42.639 --> 00:11:45.279
<v SPEAKER_00>It leaves it suspended in silence.

00:11:45.600 --> 00:11:48.480
<v SPEAKER_00>Because any answer would reduce its complexity.

00:11:48.720 --> 00:11:52.080
<v SPEAKER_00>Instead, it allows you to sit with discomfort.

00:11:52.320 --> 00:11:57.679
<v SPEAKER_00>As Joan refuses to fully surrender her belief, the court grows more aggressive.

00:11:58.159 --> 00:12:00.559
<v SPEAKER_00>Not in violence, but in certainty.

00:12:00.879 --> 00:12:05.840
<v SPEAKER_00>And certainty in this film feels more dangerous than any physical weapon.

00:12:06.080 --> 00:12:08.480
<v SPEAKER_00>Because it leaves no space for doubt.

00:12:08.720 --> 00:12:11.600
<v SPEAKER_00>And without doubt, there is no empathy.

00:12:11.840 --> 00:12:16.559
<v SPEAKER_00>As Joan's fate approaches, the emotional tone of the film begins to shift.

00:12:16.799 --> 00:12:23.120
<v SPEAKER_00>The trial is no longer just legal, it becomes spiritual, it becomes existential.

00:12:23.360 --> 00:12:27.919
<v SPEAKER_00>It becomes about what it means to be human in a world that refuses to understand you.

00:12:28.159 --> 00:12:31.360
<v SPEAKER_00>There is a quiet tragedy in the way Joan is isolated.

00:12:31.600 --> 00:12:35.440
<v SPEAKER_00>Even when she is surrounded by people, she is emotionally alone.

00:12:35.600 --> 00:12:39.759
<v SPEAKER_00>And that loneliness is one of the strongest emotional themes of the film.

00:12:40.080 --> 00:12:44.720
<v SPEAKER_00>Because isolation is not just physical, it is psychological.

00:12:45.360 --> 00:12:49.440
<v SPEAKER_00>It is the feeling of being unseen even when you are fully visible.

00:12:49.679 --> 00:12:55.519
<v SPEAKER_00>One of the most powerful aspects of the passion of Joan of Arc is how it uses silence as storytelling.

00:12:55.759 --> 00:13:00.000
<v SPEAKER_00>In modern cinema, silence is often a pause between dialogues.

00:13:00.240 --> 00:13:03.120
<v SPEAKER_00>But here, silence is emotional weight.

00:13:03.360 --> 00:13:04.639
<v SPEAKER_00>It is pressure.

00:13:04.879 --> 00:13:07.200
<v SPEAKER_00>It is judgment without words.

00:13:07.440 --> 00:13:09.679
<v SPEAKER_00>You can feel it in every frame.

00:13:09.919 --> 00:13:14.320
<v SPEAKER_00>As the film moves toward its final act, the atmosphere becomes heavier.

00:13:14.559 --> 00:13:18.080
<v SPEAKER_00>Not through action, but through inevitability.

00:13:18.879 --> 00:13:22.879
<v SPEAKER_00>We begin to sense that the system has already decided Joan's fate.

00:13:23.120 --> 00:13:27.759
<v SPEAKER_00>The trial is no longer about truth, it is about confirmation.

00:13:28.080 --> 00:13:32.399
<v SPEAKER_00>And this realization changes how we watch everything that follows.

00:13:32.879 --> 00:13:35.519
<v SPEAKER_00>Because now we are not waiting for justice.

00:13:35.759 --> 00:13:37.600
<v SPEAKER_00>We are watching the process.

00:13:37.919 --> 00:13:40.559
<v SPEAKER_00>There is something deeply tragic about that.

00:13:40.799 --> 00:13:44.320
<v SPEAKER_00>Joan, however, remains emotionally consistent.

00:13:44.559 --> 00:13:49.039
<v SPEAKER_00>Even as everything collapses around her, she does not become bitter.

00:13:49.440 --> 00:13:51.360
<v SPEAKER_00>She does not become cynical.

00:13:51.600 --> 00:13:53.840
<v SPEAKER_00>She remains grounded in her belief.

00:13:54.000 --> 00:14:00.480
<v SPEAKER_00>And whether that belief is seen as divine truth or human delusion is left entirely to interpretation.

00:14:00.720 --> 00:14:04.320
<v SPEAKER_00>That ambiguity is one of the film's greatest strengths.

00:14:04.720 --> 00:14:07.279
<v SPEAKER_00>Because it respects the intelligence of the viewer.

00:14:07.600 --> 00:14:22.399
<v SPEAKER_00>As we approach the final moments of the film, the visual language becomes even more minimal, almost empty, stripped down to pure emotion, no distraction, no escape, only consequence.

00:14:22.639 --> 00:14:27.440
<v SPEAKER_00>And in those final moments, the passion of Joan of Arc becomes something beyond cinema.

00:14:27.759 --> 00:14:29.519
<v SPEAKER_00>It becomes meditation.

00:14:29.919 --> 00:14:38.080
<v SPEAKER_00>On fear, on belief, on mortality, on what it means to stand alone when the world turns away.

00:14:38.320 --> 00:14:42.399
<v SPEAKER_00>And when the final silence arrives, it does not feel like an ending.

00:14:42.639 --> 00:14:44.399
<v SPEAKER_00>It feels like an echo.

00:14:44.639 --> 00:14:48.080
<v SPEAKER_00>A question that continues long after the screen fades.

00:14:48.639 --> 00:14:52.080
<v SPEAKER_00>What would you hold on to if everything was taken from you?

00:14:52.320 --> 00:14:54.879
<v SPEAKER_00>Your life or your truth?

00:14:55.120 --> 00:14:58.000
<v SPEAKER_00>That is the question Joan of Arc leaves behind.

00:14:58.240 --> 00:15:03.360
<v SPEAKER_00>And that is why this film is not just watched, it is remembered.

00:15:03.600 --> 00:15:07.039
<v SPEAKER_00>Not as entertainment, but as experience.

00:15:07.360 --> 00:15:12.639
<v SPEAKER_00>A reminder that cinema, at its highest form, is not about what is shown.

00:15:12.799 --> 00:15:14.720
<v SPEAKER_00>It is about what is felt.

00:15:14.960 --> 00:15:19.919
<v SPEAKER_00>Thank you for listening to the untold secrets of Iconic Film's podcast show.

00:15:20.320 --> 00:15:23.120
<v SPEAKER_00>Tonight we are not just continuing a story.

00:15:23.440 --> 00:15:28.799
<v SPEAKER_00>We are entering a world where cinema becomes emotion and emotion becomes silence.

00:15:29.039 --> 00:15:31.039
<v SPEAKER_00>The passion of Joan of Arc.

00:15:31.279 --> 00:15:35.919
<v SPEAKER_00>A film that feels less like a movie and more like a memory you cannot escape.

00:15:36.240 --> 00:15:39.279
<v SPEAKER_00>A memory of judgment, a memory of faith.

00:15:39.519 --> 00:15:44.399
<v SPEAKER_00>A memory of a young girl standing alone against an entire system that refuses to understand her.

00:15:44.720 --> 00:15:49.440
<v SPEAKER_00>To fully experience this film, we need to slow down our perspective.

00:15:49.759 --> 00:15:52.000
<v SPEAKER_00>Because this is not a fast story.

00:15:52.240 --> 00:15:56.799
<v SPEAKER_00>It is a slow emotional collapse, captured frame by frame.

00:15:56.960 --> 00:16:01.840
<v SPEAKER_00>When Carl Theodore Dreyer made this film, he was not interested in entertainment.

00:16:02.080 --> 00:16:04.000
<v SPEAKER_00>He was interested in truth.

00:16:04.240 --> 00:16:07.679
<v SPEAKER_00>Not historical truth alone, but emotional truth.

00:16:07.919 --> 00:16:12.399
<v SPEAKER_00>The kind of truth that exists in human eyes when words are no longer enough.

00:16:12.639 --> 00:16:15.759
<v SPEAKER_00>That is why this film feels so different even today.

00:16:16.080 --> 00:16:21.200
<v SPEAKER_00>There is something almost uncomfortable about how close it gets to the human face.

00:16:21.519 --> 00:16:23.360
<v SPEAKER_00>It does not allow distance.

00:16:23.759 --> 00:16:25.679
<v SPEAKER_00>It does not allow escape.

00:16:26.000 --> 00:16:27.759
<v SPEAKER_00>It forces presence.

00:16:28.080 --> 00:16:30.879
<v SPEAKER_00>And that presence becomes overwhelming.

00:16:31.120 --> 00:16:36.639
<v SPEAKER_00>As we go deeper into the courtroom sequences, something very interesting begins to happen.

00:16:36.879 --> 00:16:39.919
<v SPEAKER_00>The judges are not portrayed as cartoon villains.

00:16:40.320 --> 00:16:43.440
<v SPEAKER_00>They are calm, they are controlled.

00:16:43.759 --> 00:16:46.320
<v SPEAKER_00>They believe they are doing the right thing.

00:16:46.559 --> 00:16:49.440
<v SPEAKER_00>And that is what makes the conflict so powerful.

00:16:49.679 --> 00:16:53.840
<v SPEAKER_00>Because this is not a battle between good and evil in a simple sense.

00:16:54.159 --> 00:17:04.079
<v SPEAKER_00>It is a battle between belief systems, between institutional authority and personal conviction, between what is accepted and what is felt.

00:17:04.400 --> 00:17:10.319
<v SPEAKER_00>Joan of Arc stands at the center of this system like a fragile point of light surrounded by pressure.

00:17:10.640 --> 00:17:16.640
<v SPEAKER_00>Every question directed at her is not just an interrogation, it is a test of identity.

00:17:16.960 --> 00:17:18.000
<v SPEAKER_00>Who are you?

00:17:18.240 --> 00:17:19.599
<v SPEAKER_00>What do you believe?

00:17:19.839 --> 00:17:23.039
<v SPEAKER_00>And more importantly, who gave you the right to believe it?

00:17:23.279 --> 00:17:28.400
<v SPEAKER_00>And Joan answers not like a politician, not like someone trained in argument.

00:17:28.640 --> 00:17:32.160
<v SPEAKER_00>She answers like someone speaking from inside a vision.

00:17:32.319 --> 00:17:36.240
<v SPEAKER_00>There is honesty in her voice that the court cannot easily process.

00:17:36.640 --> 00:17:40.640
<v SPEAKER_00>Because honesty in a rigid system becomes dangerous.

00:17:40.960 --> 00:17:45.519
<v SPEAKER_00>As the questioning continues, we begin to notice something subtle but important.

00:17:45.920 --> 00:17:52.160
<v SPEAKER_00>The film is not only about Joan being judged, it is also about the audience being made to judge.

00:17:52.400 --> 00:17:59.440
<v SPEAKER_00>We are constantly asked silently without words do you believe her or do you not?

00:17:59.759 --> 00:18:02.079
<v SPEAKER_00>And the film refuses to guide us.

00:18:02.240 --> 00:18:04.400
<v SPEAKER_00>It leaves us in uncertainty.

00:18:04.640 --> 00:18:07.759
<v SPEAKER_00>That uncertainty is where the emotional power lives.

00:18:08.000 --> 00:18:13.119
<v SPEAKER_00>The cinematography continues to push boundaries in how it frames human emotion.

00:18:13.440 --> 00:18:16.000
<v SPEAKER_00>Faces fill the screen in extreme close-up.

00:18:16.480 --> 00:18:18.720
<v SPEAKER_00>Eyes dominate the composition.

00:18:19.039 --> 00:18:21.119
<v SPEAKER_00>Tears become landscapes.

00:18:21.359 --> 00:18:25.039
<v SPEAKER_00>A slight movement of lips becomes a full emotional event.

00:18:25.279 --> 00:18:29.200
<v SPEAKER_00>In modern cinema, we are used to action-driven storytelling.

00:18:29.440 --> 00:18:31.839
<v SPEAKER_00>But here, stillness becomes action.

00:18:32.160 --> 00:18:36.160
<v SPEAKER_00>Silence becomes dialogue, and emotion becomes plot.

00:18:36.400 --> 00:18:40.160
<v SPEAKER_00>There is a moment where Joan is shown listening completely still.

00:18:40.480 --> 00:18:44.720
<v SPEAKER_00>No movement, no reaction, just presence.

00:18:45.039 --> 00:18:47.279
<v SPEAKER_00>But that stillness is not empty.

00:18:47.519 --> 00:18:49.920
<v SPEAKER_00>It is full of internal conflict.

00:18:50.160 --> 00:18:52.960
<v SPEAKER_00>You can feel thoughts moving behind her eyes.

00:18:53.200 --> 00:18:59.680
<v SPEAKER_00>You can feel fear, faith, confusion, and strength all existing at once.

00:18:59.920 --> 00:19:02.960
<v SPEAKER_00>And that is what makes the performance so extraordinary.

00:19:03.279 --> 00:19:07.839
<v SPEAKER_00>Because it does not simplify human emotion, it multiplies it.

00:19:08.079 --> 00:19:13.359
<v SPEAKER_00>As the trial moves closer to its conclusion, the emotional pressure increases.

00:19:13.759 --> 00:19:18.720
<v SPEAKER_00>Not through music, not through spectacle, but through repetition.

00:19:19.119 --> 00:19:20.559
<v SPEAKER_00>Questions repeat.

00:19:20.880 --> 00:19:22.240
<v SPEAKER_00>Answers repeat.

00:19:22.559 --> 00:19:23.839
<v SPEAKER_00>Doubt repeats.

00:19:24.079 --> 00:19:27.119
<v SPEAKER_00>And repetition becomes psychological weight.

00:19:27.759 --> 00:19:31.680
<v SPEAKER_00>The court tries to break Joan not by violence, but by exhaustion.

00:19:31.839 --> 00:19:38.400
<v SPEAKER_00>By making belief feel too heavy to carry, and yet she continues to hold on to her inner conviction.

00:19:38.720 --> 00:19:42.559
<v SPEAKER_00>This is where the film stops being just historical storytelling.

00:19:42.880 --> 00:19:44.799
<v SPEAKER_00>It becomes philosophical.

00:19:45.039 --> 00:19:48.640
<v SPEAKER_00>It begins to ask deeper questions about human existence.

00:19:48.880 --> 00:19:51.359
<v SPEAKER_00>What happens when belief cannot be proven?

00:19:51.599 --> 00:19:54.079
<v SPEAKER_00>What happens when truth cannot be shared?

00:19:54.319 --> 00:19:57.440
<v SPEAKER_00>What happens when understanding is impossible?

00:19:57.759 --> 00:20:00.319
<v SPEAKER_00>These questions do not have clear answers.

00:20:00.559 --> 00:20:02.880
<v SPEAKER_00>And the film does not pretend they do.

00:20:03.200 --> 00:20:06.240
<v SPEAKER_00>Instead, it allows silence to carry meaning.

00:20:06.480 --> 00:20:12.000
<v SPEAKER_00>As we approach the final segments of the story, Joan's isolation becomes more visible.

00:20:12.160 --> 00:20:15.039
<v SPEAKER_00>Even in rooms full of people, she feels alone.

00:20:15.200 --> 00:20:22.000
<v SPEAKER_00>And that loneliness is not just physical separation, it is emotional disconnection from the world around her.

00:20:22.160 --> 00:20:25.680
<v SPEAKER_00>She is surrounded by language she cannot fully accept.

00:20:25.839 --> 00:20:29.440
<v SPEAKER_00>And they are surrounded by a belief they cannot understand.

00:20:29.839 --> 00:20:33.359
<v SPEAKER_00>This gap between them is where tragedy exists.

00:20:33.599 --> 00:20:36.160
<v SPEAKER_00>The court believes it is restoring order.

00:20:36.480 --> 00:20:39.200
<v SPEAKER_00>Joan believes she is following truth.

00:20:39.440 --> 00:20:42.160
<v SPEAKER_00>And neither side fully understands the other.

00:20:42.400 --> 00:20:44.960
<v SPEAKER_00>That is what makes the ending so powerful.

00:20:45.200 --> 00:20:52.960
<v SPEAKER_00>There is no traditional victory, no simple resolution, only consequence and acceptance.

00:20:53.200 --> 00:20:57.759
<v SPEAKER_00>In her final moments, the emotional tone of the film becomes almost meditative.

00:20:58.000 --> 00:21:00.319
<v SPEAKER_00>Everything slows down further.

00:21:00.720 --> 00:21:06.799
<v SPEAKER_00>The world feels distant, and what remains is only human presence facing inevitability.

00:21:06.960 --> 00:21:10.799
<v SPEAKER_00>There is a quiet dignity in how the film portrays this moment.

00:21:11.039 --> 00:21:14.880
<v SPEAKER_00>It does not exaggerate suffering, it observes it.

00:21:15.119 --> 00:21:20.319
<v SPEAKER_00>And that observation becomes deeply emotional because it feels honest.

00:21:20.559 --> 00:21:24.240
<v SPEAKER_00>As the story reaches its end, something unexpected happens.

00:21:24.480 --> 00:21:28.000
<v SPEAKER_00>The film stops feeling like a historical reconstruction.

00:21:28.240 --> 00:21:30.720
<v SPEAKER_00>It starts feeling like a reflection.

00:21:31.039 --> 00:21:36.240
<v SPEAKER_00>A reflection of every moment in human history where someone stood alone for what they believed.

00:21:36.400 --> 00:21:41.759
<v SPEAKER_00>Whether they were right or wrong becomes less important than the courage of conviction itself.

00:21:42.000 --> 00:21:45.839
<v SPEAKER_00>And that is where the film reaches its deepest emotional level.

00:21:46.160 --> 00:21:48.640
<v SPEAKER_00>It is not asking us to agree with Joan.

00:21:48.880 --> 00:21:51.680
<v SPEAKER_00>It is asking us to understand her humanity.

00:21:51.920 --> 00:21:59.519
<v SPEAKER_00>The passion of Joan of Arc remains powerful today because it does something very rare in cinema, it removes distraction.

00:22:00.319 --> 00:22:03.519
<v SPEAKER_00>And in removing distraction, it exposes emotion.

00:22:03.759 --> 00:22:06.640
<v SPEAKER_00>Raw, unfiltered human emotion.

00:22:06.880 --> 00:22:10.960
<v SPEAKER_00>It reminds us that cinema does not need complexity to be powerful.

00:22:11.200 --> 00:22:15.920
<v SPEAKER_00>Sometimes simplicity, when used with precision, becomes overwhelming.

00:22:16.400 --> 00:22:20.079
<v SPEAKER_00>A face, a tear, a silence.

00:22:20.480 --> 00:22:23.279
<v SPEAKER_00>And in that silence, a complete world of meaning.

00:22:23.519 --> 00:22:29.599
<v SPEAKER_00>This is why the film continues to be studied, discussed, and felt nearly a century after its creation.

00:22:29.920 --> 00:22:35.279
<v SPEAKER_00>Because it is not just a film about the past, it is a film about being human.

00:22:35.440 --> 00:22:36.960
<v SPEAKER_00>And that is timeless.

00:22:37.279 --> 00:22:41.279
<v SPEAKER_00>We continue now with a deeper exploration of the passion of Joan of Arc.

00:22:41.680 --> 00:22:48.000
<v SPEAKER_00>But this time we are going beyond plot, beyond history, and even beyond cinema technique.

00:22:48.240 --> 00:22:51.359
<v SPEAKER_00>We are entering the emotional architecture of the film.

00:22:51.680 --> 00:22:58.400
<v SPEAKER_00>Because this is not just a story that unfolds, it is an experience that builds pressure inside the viewer.

00:22:58.880 --> 00:23:03.599
<v SPEAKER_00>Slowly, silently, unavoidably.

00:23:03.839 --> 00:23:08.240
<v SPEAKER_00>As the courtroom sequences progress, one thing becomes more and more clear.

00:23:08.480 --> 00:23:11.039
<v SPEAKER_00>This is not a trial in the traditional sense.

00:23:11.279 --> 00:23:14.960
<v SPEAKER_00>It is a controlled environment designed to dismantle certainty.

00:23:15.200 --> 00:23:18.400
<v SPEAKER_00>Every question asked to Joan is carefully structured.

00:23:18.640 --> 00:23:23.599
<v SPEAKER_00>Not to discover truth, but to test how long truth can survive under pressure.

00:23:23.839 --> 00:23:29.119
<v SPEAKER_00>And what makes this even more powerful is how calm everything appears on the surface.

00:23:29.440 --> 00:23:35.920
<v SPEAKER_00>There is no chaos, no dramatic shouting, no visible brutality.

00:23:36.160 --> 00:23:41.200
<v SPEAKER_00>Everything is polite, structured, almost ritualistic.

00:23:41.440 --> 00:23:47.519
<v SPEAKER_00>And that contrast between surface calm and emotional violence is what creates the film's intensity.

00:23:47.839 --> 00:23:51.519
<v SPEAKER_00>Joan in the center of this system becomes something paradoxical.

00:23:51.839 --> 00:23:56.079
<v SPEAKER_00>She is both extremely vulnerable and extremely resistant at the same time.

00:23:56.319 --> 00:23:58.319
<v SPEAKER_00>Vulnerable because she is alone.

00:23:58.559 --> 00:24:01.359
<v SPEAKER_00>Resistant because she refuses a break internally.

00:24:01.599 --> 00:24:05.039
<v SPEAKER_00>The camera continues its obsessive focus on faces.

00:24:05.680 --> 00:24:11.440
<v SPEAKER_00>Not wide battlefields, not large settings, just human expressions.

00:24:11.680 --> 00:24:17.039
<v SPEAKER_00>And through those expressions, the film constructs its entire emotional language.

00:24:17.279 --> 00:24:21.039
<v SPEAKER_00>There is a moment where silence stretches longer than expected.

00:24:21.599 --> 00:24:25.680
<v SPEAKER_00>No dialogue, no movement, just waiting.

00:24:25.839 --> 00:24:30.000
<v SPEAKER_00>And in that waiting, tension builds not externally, but internally.

00:24:30.400 --> 00:24:35.680
<v SPEAKER_00>The audience begins to feel the weight of judgment without any physical action taking place.

00:24:36.240 --> 00:24:38.880
<v SPEAKER_00>This is one of the film's greatest achievements.

00:24:39.200 --> 00:24:43.599
<v SPEAKER_00>It transforms psychological pressure into cinematic experience.

00:24:43.839 --> 00:24:49.599
<v SPEAKER_00>As Joan continues to answer questions, the court repeatedly tries to force contradiction.

00:24:49.839 --> 00:24:51.680
<v SPEAKER_00>They want inconsistency.

00:24:52.240 --> 00:24:53.680
<v SPEAKER_00>They want doubt.

00:24:53.920 --> 00:24:56.079
<v SPEAKER_00>Because doubt weakens certainty.

00:24:56.319 --> 00:25:07.759
<v SPEAKER_00>But what they encounter instead is emotional steadiness, not arrogance, not defiance, but a kind of quiet persistence that cannot easily be categorized.

00:25:07.920 --> 00:25:11.279
<v SPEAKER_00>And that is where the conflict becomes philosophical.

00:25:11.599 --> 00:25:15.119
<v SPEAKER_00>Because the real question is no longer about Joan alone.

00:25:15.359 --> 00:25:18.079
<v SPEAKER_00>It becomes about the limits of understanding.

00:25:18.400 --> 00:25:23.359
<v SPEAKER_00>Can a system designed for order accept something that does not fit its structure?

00:25:23.680 --> 00:25:26.000
<v SPEAKER_00>The film does not answer this directly.

00:25:26.240 --> 00:25:28.720
<v SPEAKER_00>Instead, it continues to observe.

00:25:29.039 --> 00:25:32.880
<v SPEAKER_00>And observation in this case becomes more powerful than explanation.

00:25:33.119 --> 00:25:37.599
<v SPEAKER_00>As time passes in the narrative, the emotional atmosphere becomes heavier.

00:25:38.000 --> 00:25:45.119
<v SPEAKER_00>Not because something new is constantly happening, but because the same emotional pressure is being sustained over time.

00:25:45.359 --> 00:25:51.759
<v SPEAKER_00>And sustained pressure creates psychological fatigue, both for Joan and for the viewer.

00:25:52.319 --> 00:25:53.839
<v SPEAKER_00>This is intentional.

00:25:54.079 --> 00:26:00.559
<v SPEAKER_00>The director is not just telling a story, he is constructing an emotional experience that mirrors endurance.

00:26:00.799 --> 00:26:07.359
<v SPEAKER_00>There are moments where Joan looks exhausted, but even in exhaustion, there is clarity in her expression.

00:26:07.680 --> 00:26:12.160
<v SPEAKER_00>It is not confusion, it is acceptance mixed with belief.

00:26:12.400 --> 00:26:17.519
<v SPEAKER_00>And that combination creates emotional complexity that cannot easily be labeled.

00:26:17.680 --> 00:26:21.920
<v SPEAKER_00>One of the most fascinating aspects of the film is how it treats power.

00:26:22.400 --> 00:26:32.319
<v SPEAKER_00>Power is not shown as violence, it is shown as structure, language, procedure, authority, and repetition.

00:26:32.720 --> 00:26:36.000
<v SPEAKER_00>The court does not need to raise its voice to dominate.

00:26:36.480 --> 00:26:39.119
<v SPEAKER_00>Its very structure creates dominance.

00:26:39.279 --> 00:26:48.319
<v SPEAKER_00>And against this structure, Joan exists as a single point of resistance, not through rebellion, but through internal consistency.

00:26:48.640 --> 00:26:55.200
<v SPEAKER_00>As the narrative moves forward, we begin to notice something subtle in how the camera treats Joan compared to others.

00:26:55.359 --> 00:27:04.079
<v SPEAKER_00>Other characters are often shown in groups, framed within systems, surrounded by architecture that reinforces authority.

00:27:04.319 --> 00:27:07.440
<v SPEAKER_00>But Joan is often isolated within the frame.

00:27:07.680 --> 00:27:13.119
<v SPEAKER_00>Even when others are physically close, the composition separates her emotionally.

00:27:13.440 --> 00:27:19.279
<v SPEAKER_00>This visual separation reinforces the core theme of the film: isolation of belief.

00:27:19.599 --> 00:27:24.960
<v SPEAKER_00>As the trial nears its conclusion, the emotional weight becomes almost unbearable.

00:27:25.279 --> 00:27:29.119
<v SPEAKER_00>Not because of action, but because of inevitability.

00:27:29.359 --> 00:27:37.519
<v SPEAKER_00>The audience begins to sense the direction of events, not through dialogue, but through emotional pattern recognition.

00:27:37.920 --> 00:27:42.480
<v SPEAKER_00>And that sense of inevitability creates tension that is different from suspense.

00:27:42.720 --> 00:27:47.519
<v SPEAKER_00>It is not about what will happen, it is about how it will be experienced.

00:27:47.839 --> 00:27:51.599
<v SPEAKER_00>Joan's responses begin to carry even more emotional weight.

00:27:51.839 --> 00:27:56.960
<v SPEAKER_00>Every word feels measured, not strategic, but sincere.

00:27:57.279 --> 00:28:04.480
<v SPEAKER_00>And sincerity, in a system built on interrogation, becomes both strength and vulnerability at the same time.

00:28:04.720 --> 00:28:14.079
<v SPEAKER_00>There is no easy escape for her, no external rescue, no sudden reversal, only the continuation of process.

00:28:14.400 --> 00:28:17.839
<v SPEAKER_00>And process in this film is the true force of power.

00:28:18.079 --> 00:28:23.599
<v SPEAKER_00>As we move toward the final moments, the film begins to strip away everything unnecessary.

00:28:23.839 --> 00:28:34.640
<v SPEAKER_00>What remains is emotional essence, not narrative complexity, not historical detail, but pure human confrontation with consequence.

00:28:34.880 --> 00:28:38.480
<v SPEAKER_00>And in that confrontation, something very important emerges.

00:28:38.720 --> 00:28:42.480
<v SPEAKER_00>The film stops being about Joan as a historical figure.

00:28:42.799 --> 00:28:45.680
<v SPEAKER_00>It becomes about human experience under judgment.

00:28:45.920 --> 00:28:47.920
<v SPEAKER_00>And that experience is universal.

00:28:48.400 --> 00:28:59.839
<v SPEAKER_00>Because every human being, in some form, understands what it means to be misunderstood, to be questioned, to be pressured into explaining what feels unexplainable.

00:29:00.079 --> 00:29:03.680
<v SPEAKER_00>This is why the film continues to resonate across generations.

00:29:04.240 --> 00:29:08.799
<v SPEAKER_00>Because it is not locked in history, it is rooted in emotion.

00:29:09.119 --> 00:29:13.759
<v SPEAKER_00>As Joan approaches her final fate, the emotional tone becomes almost still.

00:29:14.319 --> 00:29:16.880
<v SPEAKER_00>Not empty, but focused.

00:29:17.119 --> 00:29:20.880
<v SPEAKER_00>Like the world itself has narrowed into a single point of experience.

00:29:21.119 --> 00:29:23.200
<v SPEAKER_00>There is dignity in this stillness.

00:29:23.440 --> 00:29:27.920
<v SPEAKER_00>Not dramatic dignity, but quiet internal dignity.

00:29:28.160 --> 00:29:30.480
<v SPEAKER_00>The kind that does not need recognition.

00:29:30.720 --> 00:29:36.480
<v SPEAKER_00>And as the final emotional arc completes itself, the film leaves behind something very rare.

00:29:36.720 --> 00:29:38.720
<v SPEAKER_00>It does not leave answers.

00:29:38.960 --> 00:29:40.799
<v SPEAKER_00>It leaves reflection.

00:29:41.039 --> 00:29:51.920
<v SPEAKER_00>Reflection on belief, on authority, on silence, on human endurance, and on the fragile space between truth and perception.

00:29:52.160 --> 00:29:56.319
<v SPEAKER_00>When the story finally closes, it does not feel like conclusion.

00:29:56.559 --> 00:29:59.920
<v SPEAKER_00>It feels like continuation inside the viewer's mind.

00:30:00.319 --> 00:30:03.680
<v SPEAKER_00>Because the questions it raises do not end with the film.

00:30:04.079 --> 00:30:05.119
<v SPEAKER_00>They continue.

00:30:05.440 --> 00:30:09.359
<v SPEAKER_00>And that continuation is what defines true cinematic impact.

00:30:09.599 --> 00:30:13.599
<v SPEAKER_00>The passion of Joan of Arc is not remembered because it entertains.

00:30:13.920 --> 00:30:17.759
<v SPEAKER_00>It is remembered because it transforms attention into emotion.

00:30:18.000 --> 00:30:19.759
<v SPEAKER_00>And emotion into memory.

00:30:20.000 --> 00:30:24.480
<v SPEAKER_00>Thank you for listening to the Untold Secrets of Iconic Films Podcast Show.

00:30:24.720 --> 00:30:32.720
<v SPEAKER_00>Until next time, remember this some films do not end when the screen goes dark, they continue inside you.
