A Worker for Peace

In his Oct. 4 review of Pierre Sauvage’s film, “Weapons of the Spirit,” Michael Wilmington states that Andre Trocme died in a concentration camp. That is incorrect. Trocme was still much alive when I lived in Le Chambon after the war, still involved locally but beginning to work internationally for lasting world peace. The facts can be checked in the book about Le Chambon, “Lest Innocent Blood Be Shed,” by Philip Hallie. Hallie says Trocme died in 1971.
This detail aside, I wish to thank Wilmington and The Times for the attention to this important film.
