Author: compulsoryregistration from United States

the music is wonderful. i got chills several times during the viewing. michael j. lloyd did an amazing job on the sound track. as for the topic of forbidden love in the middle east, i was moved. i've been told that the basis of this story is true and that people in the region really do deal with this topic as portrayed in this film. what a shame. danielle pollack and cameron van hoy were good in their respective roles. martin landau of course is a master and as such it goes without saying his content was flawless. did you know that the legendary tony curtis is in this flick?! that is worth the price of admission alone.lastly, i have never seen such a strong reaction to an ending as i did in this film. wow.
