Joyeux Noël ! - Merry Christmas "Ultimately, Joyeux Noel achieves the near-impossible, by keeping the treacle to a minimum while leaving one in no doubt about the finer aspects of humanity. Utterly magical." Author: Ali_Catterall from London, England-- IMBD.com The Folly and the Ivy, 16 October 2005 Official Movie Site -
It is a story that has been told again and again over the years in the families of those who fought in the Great War. On Armistice Day each year as we place a poppy in our lapels and our small tears remind us of the futility of this war and any war, we can add these images to remind us that courage is in each of us. Let us bolster one another's courage and make peace. |
