"Joyeaux Noel" by Christian Carion deals with the spontaneous Christmas
"truce"between enemies in the trenches of World War I. Beautifully filmed, cast, and acted, I think it is the most moving and effective anti war film, I have ever seen. Frankly, I think it beats films such as "Full Metal Jacket" or "Platoon" (or even "Saving Private Ryan")by a long shot, particularly the first two since the Great War was just about as pointless as was Viet Nam. This was a very poignant time to have released such a film. I've bought several copies for gifts for next Christmas.
