Plot hole: Joan of Arc is called to save Orléans from the siege of the English. But if you look In the scene where we see a bird's eye view of the city, you will notice that there are no guards on its walls. A siege is the means enemy soldiers try to cut a city from its supplies and contacts. Those soldiers should be guarding it day and night, and sometimes even shooting arrows or rocks in it, until the city resigns. The siege we see at Orléans is nothing but a lonely catapult which shoots once a week.

Continuity mistake: When young Joan is lying in the field and finds the sword, she points the sword towards the sky, and the side handles are vertical with her body. Then in the aerial shot going toward her, this time and throughout the rest of the small part, the side handles are horizontal with her body.
Joan of Arc: I've seen enough blood, but if you want more, I can't stop you. But I must warn you, that it will be your blood, and not ours.
