The Passion of Joan of Arc - Family Review
A classic of the silent age, this film tells the story of the doomed but ultimately canonized 15th-century teenage warrior. On trial for claiming she'd spoken to God, Jeanne d'Arc is subjected to inhumane treatment and scare tactics at the hands of church court officials. Initially bullied into changing her story, Jeanne eventually opts for what she sees as the truth. Her punishment, a famously brutal execution, earns her perpetual martyrdom.

Much of the movie is intense. Joan is accused of blashphemy and is rigorously questioned and threatened throughout the film. She is taken to a torture room where the judges attempt to coerce her into confessing her guilt. The execution scene could also be viewed as intense.
