Independent Journalism in Phoenix Needs You
We need to raise $15,000 by August 9 to support the reporting our community depends on. Reader support keeps us independent and is playing a larger role in funding local journalism and shaping what comes next. If you believe independent local journalism matters, make a contribution today.
It sounds all bright and shiny — like a good Christmas movie should — but this 2005 anti-war film by director Christian Carion is as dark as the Grinch’s heart, pre-Cindy Lou. It’s based on the true story of the unplanned and unauthorized Christmas Eve truce of 1914 during World War I, in which the foot soldiers on both sides of the trenches laid down their arms and made tentative gestures at brotherhood. The next day . . . well . . . we’re not trying to blow your high, but this’ll give you some perspective never time you’re tapping your foot in some department-store queue.
