I enjoyed both the book and the film. However the film made me realize that because Joan had no facial hair or evidence of shaving, and lacked the frontal ridge structure found in male skulls, it seemed very unlikely that binding breasts or not, a woman couldn't have passed as an adult male for very long. But I wish the story could have been true.

I can not find the last version that actually was showed in theaters without Franca Potente. But, terrible movie!!! Bad performances...The story lost since the begining of its way, and turns into a untrue contemporary love story with two actores wearing the period disguises.
