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.

From personal experience
My war was of a different time and place. This film has captured that small part of humanity found in all wars. A facinating study of the human condition in the extreem.
This DVD makes a wonderful Christmas gift.

Excellent Film
This movie shows the human side of WWI, a side of war you don't see in most movies.

I've shown it two years in a row in my American History class (high school), and will continue to do so as the years move forward. My students hear that it has subtitles and automatically think the movie is going to be terrible. After viewing it, most say it's one of the best films they've ever seen.

fantastic movie
this movie is well acted and i would recommend that those of you who have not seen it .please go ahead and watch it

A pretty decent film
The film is pretty amusing due to the characters and their interactions with one another. I did enjoy it although it wasn't necessarily as life-changing as some people told me it was. All in all: not bad.

Best war movie ever!
It's better than the one of the WWII, where the American and the Japs run out of ammo, become friends but then kill each other. Don't remember the name.
