100 years ago today, for a few brief moments, tidings of great joy and peace crawled out of the trenches. Here's a BBC doc on the Christmas Truce of 1914. Joyeux Noel

Was the movie made in the early 1980s?
It is always interesting to listen to wise old men like these. They have seen the whole 20th century!

Watching the movie I knew that the song "Silent night" was written in 1818 and it was first a German song. This astonished me greatly! I like this song by Bony Taylor or "Chicago" very much! And I thought it was a modern hit. But people listen to it almost two hundred years!
