Merry Christmas

I haven't seen such a warm war movie for a long time. There are not too many bloody killings, and there is not too much patriotism in it. It's just that a group of soldiers spent their own time in a "forgotten" trench. Christmas!
The generals issued an order, and the soldiers were to die. In the muddy trenches, they gradually lost the patriotic enthusiasm of the past, and only had to fight day after day. In the end, they temporarily forgot about the war and ushered in a period of peace of their own.
Unfortunately, in the end, their ending was not good. They were accused of "treason" and sent to a more brutal battlefield. The ideology does not allow them to come into contact with the "enemy".
They are just a group of forgotten soldiers, forgetting their nationality, forgetting their ideology, and having a Christmas of their own!

    Western version of "The Harp of Burma".

    An alternative war movie that feels a bit familiar. The tone of the whole play is very similar to a Christmas carol, it is peaceful and peaceful, and the main melody is too heavy.

Joyeux Noel quotes

  • Ponchel: [watching Horstmayer and Gordon shake hands] A summit meeting, and we're not even invited.

  • Horstmayer: I heard last night about your wife. If you like, I can get a letter through to her.

    Lieutenant Audebert: Why would you do that? If you got caught...

    Horstmayer: [scoffs] One letter won't stop us winning the war. And anyhow, when we'll have taken Paris and it's over, you can invite us for a drink in Rue Vavin.

    Lieutenant Audebert: You don't have to invade Paris to drop round for a drink.
