As a director, Peirone is especially fluid, possessing a sensibility in which stylistic galumphery is less its own reward than a means of expanding narrative possibilities.
The first clarification to be made about Mitzi Peirone’s “Saint Clare” is that it has nothing to do with Chiara Offreduccio — that is to say, Saint Claire of Assisi, the patron saint of, among much else, televised imagery. Instead, Ms. Peirone’s film concerns itself more with Joan of Arc: specifically, the movie about her trial, Carl Theodor Dreyer’s “The Passion of Joan of Arc” (1928).
