Hopefully, this means Hollywood will stop producing really bad movies about her life.

This is rot!

Joan of Arc's life was EXTREMELY well chronicled.

She NEVER wore a knights "heavy "amour"", rather she wore a kit MADE FOR HER ALONE (and it was White, not dark, as in that depiction). "Arc" or D'Arc was a refrence to her parentage, it wasn't some title as it seems to be regarded in this story.

While Joan of Arc was very smart she was ILLITERATE! In the "brains" department she pretty much Beatach-slapped Bishop Cauchon, her MAIN tormentor, but she was not schooled at all. In fact you can read the trial today and be impressed and amused with her easy dismissal of Cauchon--a man and politician who was schooled to the nth degree!!!!

Where she came from and her history there WAS NEVER IN DOUBT!

This whole story reads like a lame attempt at humor.
