Join us in 2026 for our year-long film series REEL REBELS. Weโll be screening films known for their renegade characters, including stories about underdogs fighting the odds, lonely voices crying to be heard, and moviemakers struggling to share their vision. REEL REBELS showcases works from across the globe that prove that movies will always be a home for nonconformists, dissenters, and rebels. The series continues on April 15th with THE PASSION OF JOAN OF ARC a gorgeous silent presented with live accompaniment by Not So Silent Cinema. ๐ง๐ถ๐ฐ๐ธ๐ฒ๐๐ ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ฒ ๐ฎ๐๐ฎ๐ถ๐น๐ฎ๐ฏ๐น๐ฒ ๐ป๐ผ๐ ๐ฎ๐ countytheater.org/specials๐๐ฏ๐ผ๐๐ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ ๐ผ๐๐ถ๐ฒ: Carl Theodor Dreyer constructed one of the most transcendent and rebellious pieces of silent cinema with THE PASSION OF JOAN OF ARC. Chronicling the trial and final hours leading up to her execution for heresy, Dreyerโs experimental approach with expressionistic lighting and intimate close-ups is a master stroke of cinema. Renรฉe Falconettiโs resilient and haunted performance as Joan is one of the most powerful portrayals of the human spirit ever captured on film. Thought to have been lost to a fire, the filmโs original version was miraculously found in perfect condition in 1981. Silent w/ live accompaniment.
