Movietip: Joyeux Noël (Merry Christmas)
I know today is not Winter nor any special pre-Christmas day, but I saw the movie 'Joyeux Noël'(French for Merry Christmas) and I was really touched. As a fan of history I still didn't
know much about these events.
Inspired by a true story, which happened on Christmas Eve 1914 during World War I, in many different places along the front line. Various front-line soldiers of the conflict peacefully met each other in No Man's Land to share a precious pause in the carnage with a fleeting brotherhood. This film dramatizes one such section as the French, British and German sides partake in the unique event, even though they are aware that their superiors will not tolerate its occurrence.This movie has been nominated for an Oscar and should be seen by every one who still believes in humanity even during war time. Take a look here at the trailer:
