details

• In the 100-minute edited version, only the first ten actors listed in the
  cast are given credit. Even actors who have very noticeable, if small
  roles, such as George Coulouris, Alan Napier, Jeff Corey, William Conrad,
  and George Zucco go unmentioned in the short version, as do Selena Royle
  and Robert Barrat, who play Joan's parents. Barrat himself is practically
  edited out of the 100-minute version of the film.
  In the complete 145-minute film, all of the actors mentioned above are
  listed, as are the characters they play, in addition to many other actors
  in the film who play small but significant roles. Only those with bit parts
  go unmentioned.
• In the 145-minute version of the film, the cast list, naming not only the
  actors but who they played, was deliberately presented in the style of the
  cast list of "Gone With the Wind", in order to evoke the feeling of an epic
  about to be presented. Victor Fleming, who directed "Joan of Arc", had also
  directed "Gone With the Wind" (after replacing George Cukor, "GWTW"'s
  original, uncredited director).
