Description

Academy Award, Golden Globe and BAFTA nominee for Best Foreign Film, Joyeux Noel (Merry Christmas) tells the true-life story of the spontaneous Christmas Eve truce declared by Scottish, French and German troops in the trenches of World War I. Enemies leave their weapons behind for one night as they band together in brotherhood and forget about the brutalities of war. Diane Krüger (Troy), Daniel Brühl (Good Bye Lenin!) and Benno Fürmann (The Princess and the Warrior) head a first-rate international cast in a truly powerful, must-see film.

    I first saw this movie after seeing a music video on YouTube. We all know the story of that Christmas in the war to end all wars...this movie truly captures that event with humanity in the forefront. You find yourself hoping the men...all of them, on all sides...survive. On a side note, this was the first time seeing a Daniel Bruhl. I hoped he would go far after seeing him here. It took a while, but I’m seeing him more and more. Good :-)

  • Fantastic!

    At times we forget that it is more important to love. Would forget to have compassion. That humanities is what makes us human. This movie is an important reminder of what it all means. Love it.

  • Great Film!

    I teach history and this ONLY film I show in my class. It's absolutely fantastic. The more I watch it the more I love it. For those who don't like foreign films I must warn that it is in French, German and English, so there is a bit of subtitle reading, but it is worth it!

  • Oui!
