Jacques Rivette's 1994 film Joan the Maid 2: The Prisons presents a grounded, gritty portrayal of Joan of Arc's final days, focusing on her captivity and human fatigue rather than idealized sainthood. Featuring a nuanced performance by Sandrine Bonnaire, the 176-minute historical drama shifts from the political maneuvering of the first film to the psychological and physical trials of imprisonment.
