Thanks for the tip.<br /><br />The French-accent thing seems to be a recurring conceit with these 'narrated' Melies films. It isn't logical, either--I say narrate it in French and English, on two different tracks, or just narrate it in English with a regular British or N. American accent. After all, it would have been narrated in dozens of languages, depending on where it was shown.Chris Edwardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02511805377064572471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5228314939015275941.post-10617217960238659262009-11-30T12:08:29.026-05:002009-11-30T12:08:29.026-05:00Greatly enjoyed your comments on this film. You c...Greatly enjoyed your comments on this film. You can, in fact, get a lovely version of this film with properly synchronized commentary on the 5-DVD set, George Méliès: First Wizard of Cinema, available from Flicker Alley and most online retailers. It's a must-have set, I feel, for anyone interested in Méliès; among 173 films (the most comprehensive set ever) are all the classics, Joan included and (my personal favorite) a beautiful complete version of "The Conquest of the Pole" from a recently discovered and restored German print. My only complaint about their version of Joan is that the narrator speaks in English with a noticeable French accent, which together with the subject inadvertently evokes John Cleese's snotty Frenchman in the Python's Grail.Russell Potterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11023313195827310776noreply@blogger.com
