The societal implications of this movie are brilliant. I hope after watching this video, Jews will become more tolerant of Muslims. Muslims and Jews should learn to live together especially in Israel.
Movie was so short-side minded also not even close to any real and has plenty problems.It also drag the minds to a hateful claims which was proven opposite. So boring and cheap, couldn't stand to finish.
to anyone who thinks ALL Muslims are against Jews I only ought to say this: Read history! I can't speak in the name of all Muslims but Iranians have always been generous to Jewish people - in pre and post Islamic times. While the Europeans were busy building ghettos for the Jews in middle age, the Iranians were building synagogues. While Nazi-Germany was killing Jews, some Iranian diplomats rescued thousands of Jews from Holocaust. You have no clue about anything!!
i have to say that is true cheapnonsmoker regardless of the current relations between israel and iran it was'nt always like that. Dont like to use the modern day word iran as it takes away the ancient contribution this nation has given to not just jews but the world community as a whole.
No you can say Iran, I like the name of it actually :) We always had and have many different religious and ethnical minoritiest in Iran - I belong to one myself and I am very very proud of it!

oh wow this is like a Canada style film trying to promote a fantasie that does not exist.
In the real world, Muslims are very, very racist against Jewish and the women are kept very much controlled. The Islamic families would never allow it.
It's not so much the Jewish people that aren't open minded. That is a common misconception.
Let's put it this way. you don't see a Muslim taking the innitiative to make a film like this.

I saw the movie and i think it was crap ill give it 2 out 10,first it was pro israeli,those people dont have anything to do with islam, im not sure what they,re trying to say. itis a fantay that does not exist, muslim people are not racist to anyone, they mind their own business,i did not like the way they talk about muslims in the film ,i dont see what is so comedy about it.
How morbidly inane. Why how very tolerant of you Mr Kurd to belittle ALL TURKS ARABS IRANIANS ARMENIANS and place yourSELF on a pedastal. Judaism is a religion, not a nationality. So before yapping prejudices and bad english, you might want to read up a little. There are Arab Jews, Turkish Jews and Iranian Jews. And we are all a big happy family if it wasn't for stupid governments and for colorful egoististic nationalists such as yourself.. Hugs and butterflies right back at you..
i dont get it you actualy want to put these words in my mouth because, this movie is bout a kurd and a jew? this movie is an exempl . and if you dont believe me ask jews self, they wil say to you no in fact kurds are hour friends.
You might be right about the typical muslim families but kurdish ppl arent like that ..
we were forced to be muslim during the power of 3mor ben al khatab so we are not that muslim anyways.
The fucking poltiec makes so many differents between us . we are all humen being. we are the same if u remove those thoughts or belives . lets think about the major problem. they are bombing us , taking our monay away and we still talk about the globar warming . fuck capitalsim

David & Fatima, or what? But D & F looks like a pure drama. Whereas David & Layla is a mixed genres- romance, comedy + a bit of drama.
How about probably parts of Adam Sandler's 'Don't Mess with Zohan." Coincidentally, the lovely Emanuelle Chriqui who plays the Palestinian, auditioned to play Layla well before Zohan was heard of.
E. loved the script of David & Layla, including riske parts of script where Layla causes David embarrassing hardships! Identical scenes in Zohan.

Shiva Rose is an Iranian American Hollywood actress. Shiva plays an Iraqi Kurdish character, Layla. At a higher level, Layla represents all the oppressed women of the Middle East and the Muslim world. Many dimensions of character, including her innate grace and 'suppressed' femininity could have equally been Persian, Arabic, Sepharde Jewish, Palestinian, Turkish, Moroccan... Film's score reflects this by being a music 'Love & Peace' melange of Iranian, Arabic, Jewish, Kurdish, Armenian, Turkish.

Another stupid movie only americans can like.... there are so many inter faith marriages
Maybe not in US but in Europe for example there are a lot... why the stupid movies must be a jew with a muslim? There are more jews marrige muslims then christians plus what is hard is to marry a arab women (muslim or not) even if you have the same religion. They want to kept their culture
The Imam is played by New York-based great Egyptian actor Mr. Hany Mohammed Kamal. Hany Kamal believes this film is pro-Islam and pro the Middl East's diverse nations, cultures & religions including Arabs & Jews. Hany is a devoted believer and a regular Mosque-praying Muslim. His son, Yousif (Joseph) Kamal, plays Howar, the Musician in the film. Let's not judge the film by clips taken out of context. This is art, not a documentary nor science! Be patient until you see the film. Light & Peace.
what the fusk does this have abything to do with this u fucktard nationalist scum. learn from content of movie and cultural divides not ethnic divides, mainly religion tolerance in this move u shithead
we agree with you- thanks. plse take out the abusive/obscene words then we will approve and post it. It is cool to express your angry feelings but please do it with passionate words, not obscene words. This is a Love, Laughter and Peace film between all humanity.
bravo for great comment we would like to post. could you plse rephrase with equal passion but without the obscene words. then it will be posted. many thanks,
Film now in cinemas. DVD sales in USA/Canada late 2008; in Europe from 2009. Hollywood actress Shiva Rose (Layla) is Persian American- her mother is Irish American, not Irish/Ireland. Shiva Rose lived in Iran till age 11. Pre Islamic Republic her dad, Parviz Gharib-Afshar, was the grand showman of Iranian TV. She identifies with & is proud of her Iranian, Kurdish & Middle Eastern cultures. Shiva Rose is a Refugee Spokeswoman for Amnesty Int'l, Anti Wars & a Human Rights activist.
that is true, but in the society we live in today, where so many don't know about Islam/Muslims and there are so many misconceptions, it's better that the religion be depicted correctly
Rest assured the opposite is true. Fortunately, the majority of people - including Muslims & Jews - feel this Romantic Comedy is pro Love & Peace between all religions, all humanity. It celebrates the best parts of both religions and how differently they can be lived by some people. Only a tiny minority of fundamentalists & the over-sensitive, literal-minded (who don't understand nor appreciate the unique role of free art) think this film might be anti-Semetic (anti-Jewish)or anti-Islam.
the word semetic means middle eastern. stands for all jews and christians and muslims of middle eastern descent. in the media when we hear anti semetic, they are usually referring to the jews however
"Much better for whom?" Why not let life be lived by an individual according his/her interpertation of religion? Let Alla U Akbar be the judge, not Imams or Scholars- who don't agree 100% among themsleves! Is Islam one block? Aren't there already many interpertations & sects? Let it be! Let Allah decide who goes to Heaven & who Jehanem! This is a "Love & Peace" romantic comedy, not a religious documentary!
omg i realllly wanna see this movie ... is it anywhere online, cos i live in egypt and i looked at ur site , u guys arnt openin in egypt anytime soon :P:P
My god people, its a movie, so stop being so damn smug and look at it is a....uh movie. Stop trying to give all of this bs facts that you google, majority of you obviously are not experts in either religion or history so you just sound like some jerk who wants to sound intelligent. Try humbling yourselves, instead of spewing a bunch of self indulgent crap....that aside, the movie looks like it will be funny and entertaining, will see it.
'Lovely, but this J-M romance is not realistic?' This film is inspired by a true story. We know this taboo love exists for many individuals. But most hide it for fear of reprisals. OK- now it isn't realistic for whole nations. Nor was it 'realistic' for Europeans during their two devastating World Wars & the horrific Holocaust. Nor was it 'realistic' during U.S Civil War. But for a future M. East to be similar to today's W. Europe, of 'Freedom, Diversity, Joy, Love & Peace' we can always dream!
funny thing is that there are soo many more cases of Muslim men with Jewish women also Muslim men with Christian women, etc. But for some odd reasons the people like to put Muslim women in the spotlight as being the one who falls in love with the sikh, jew, christian. I am not saying it doesnt happen but very very very few cases :)
Yes. But this fictional film is not a documentary of statistical facts. Rather, it is about unusual characters or events to promote the much needed themes of Love and Peace through the veils of comedy, dance, music, culture, sensuality and romance. Please wait till you see it. Thx.
I don't think they are giving up their faiths. Actually they are both keeping their respected faith. They are showing us that religion can not be an obstacle for a relationship. For any kind of relationship. This is the message I got from the movie.
It is a fantastic movie. I have already seen it twice and i will definitly get the dvd once it's released. More movies like David and Layla should be made.
Film opens starting Jul 20 in LA, Detroit, Nashville,.. and Aug 3 in Washington DC, Florida,..etc., with U.S. nationwide roll out well into 2008. Expect NY early 2008. Cinema updates at movie site: DavidandLayla,com.
Hey! My name is Layla! hehe anyway, I was wondering if smbdy knows if and when this movie will be playing in Europe. I actually live in Spain and it usually takes a LOT of time for movies to finally get here. Any clues?? Thank you ^^
For updates on cinemas showing this film, please see official movie site: DavidandLayla,com. Film release outside USA shall be later, from late 2008 onwards. The same with DVDs. Thanks
This is a 'Love & Peace' romantic comedy, not a political documentary. It is to be seen by the peoples of all nations and religions. For the sake of bijistan, let's plse be wise not to alienate neighbors. Let's be cool, not prevent people who most need to see this 'tolerance & cultural diversity' film by posting narrow nationalistic slogans. Hope you understand. If you kindly revise your comment, we'd love to keep it. Otherwise, forgive it maybe removed. Thanks.
Thx for your interest. See reply to sami900 below. First theatrical/cinema release in 2207 in the US, then in 2008/2009 in Europe and the rest of the world, then DVD, TV, etc. Update news at OfficialMovieSite: DavidandLayla,com. Cheers.
Yes, the film will show in SF Bay Area & in 100+ cinemas in the US. For latest list of theatres showing the film, plse check OfficialMovieSite abt once a month at: DavidandLayla,com. Perhaps forward this official site, with a higher quality Trailer & 4 Clips, to your contacts interested. Thx Cheers. PS: At InternetMovieDataBase IMDB,com, browse 50+ User Comments/reviews- every take is different, original and 100% positive!
thanks. plse see film distribution at official movie site: DavidandLayla com. US Distribution from July 2007. Europe, and the rest of the world from mid 2008 onwards. Middle East, later, InshAllah- who knows!?
It looks great! A great story of two different cultures and religions ends up with great love, passion and friendship. It can't get better! It is fun to watch, it is emotional, it passionate. I am looking forward to see it! I will highly recommend to everyone to see this fantastic film and read about it online.
This is a film about someone dear to me. I have to be honest I didn't expect it to be this good. It's more than good, its excellent and funny and addresses a very interesting subject. Congratulations really, I really cant wait to see it in the theatres. Excellent Job Mr. Jonroy and everyone who worked on it. Taking this risk is really admirable. Ahmed .J
We saw the movie at the "Festival International du Film d'Amour" at Mons (Belgium), where Jay Jonroy received the "Public's Price". Jay Jonroy made a very fresh and original movie, with a mixture of Jewish and Muslim humor and loads of comic situations. The emotions in the movie are sincere and the soundtrack is just beautiful. Besides being a nice and intelligent entertainment, this movie gives a true lesson in tolerance. The story also highlights the forgotten Kurdish issue.

1. Since when does Islam allow someone to become Muslim simply for the sake of marriage?
2. The drinking of wine (alcohol) is forbidden in Islam. Why are they both consuming alcohol? Aoothu Bilahi Minashaytanir Rajeem!
3. Muslims must give 2.5% (not 10%) of their yearly earnings to the poor. This is the third pillar of Islam!

Rest assured the opposite is true. Fortunately, the majority of people - including Muslims & Jews - feel this Romantic Comedy is pro Love & Peace between all religions, all humanity. It celebrates the best parts of both religions and how differently they can be lived by some people. Only a tiny minority of fundamentalists & the over-sensitive, literal-minded (who don't understand nor appreciate the unique role of free art) think this film might be anti-Semetic (anti-Jewish)or anti-Islam.

the word semetic means middle eastern. stands for all jews and christians and muslims of middle eastern descent. in the media when we hear anti semetic, they are usually referring to the jews however

"Much better for whom?" Why not let life be lived by an individual according his/her interpertation of religion? Let Alla U Akbar be the judge, not Imams or Scholars- who don't agree 100% among themsleves! Is Islam one block? Aren't there already many interpertations & sects? Let it be! Let Allah decide who goes to Heaven & who Jehanem! This is a "Love & Peace" romantic comedy, not a religious documentary!

My god people, its a movie, so stop being so damn smug and look at it is a....uh movie. Stop trying to give all of this bs facts that you google, majority of you obviously are not experts in either religion or history so you just sound like some jerk who wants to sound intelligent. Try humbling yourselves, instead of spewing a bunch of self indulgent crap....that aside, the movie looks like it will be funny and entertaining, will see it.

'Lovely, but this J-M romance is not realistic?' This film is inspired by a true story. We know this taboo love exists for many individuals. But most hide it for fear of reprisals. OK- now it isn't realistic for whole nations. Nor was it 'realistic' for Europeans during their two devastating World Wars & the horrific Holocaust. Nor was it 'realistic' during U.S Civil War. But for a future M. East to be similar to today's W. Europe, of 'Freedom, Diversity, Joy, Love & Peace' we can always dream!

funny thing is that there are soo many more cases of Muslim men with Jewish women also Muslim men with Christian women, etc. But for some odd reasons the people like to put Muslim women in the spotlight as being the one who falls in love with the sikh, jew, christian. I am not saying it doesnt happen but very very very few cases :)

Yes. But this fictional film is not a documentary of statistical facts. Rather, it is about unusual characters or events to promote the much needed themes of Love and Peace through the veils of comedy, dance, music, culture, sensuality and romance. Please wait till you see it. Thx.

I don't think they are giving up their faiths. Actually they are both keeping their respected faith. They are showing us that religion can not be an obstacle for a relationship. For any kind of relationship. This is the message I got from the movie.

This is a 'Love & Peace' romantic comedy, not a political documentary. It is to be seen by the peoples of all nations and religions. For the sake of bijistan, let's plse be wise not to alienate neighbors. Let's be cool, not prevent people who most need to see this 'tolerance & cultural diversity' film by posting narrow nationalistic slogans. Hope you understand. If you kindly revise your comment, we'd love to keep it. Otherwise, forgive it maybe removed. Thanks.

This is a film about someone dear to me. I have to be honest I didn't expect it to be this good. It's more than good, its excellent and funny and addresses a very interesting subject. Congratulations really, I really cant wait to see it in the theatres. Excellent Job Mr. Jonroy and everyone who worked on it. Taking this risk is really admirable. Ahmed .J

We saw the movie at the "Festival International du Film d'Amour" at Mons (Belgium), where Jay Jonroy received the "Public's Price". Jay Jonroy made a very fresh and original movie, with a mixture of Jewish and Muslim humor and loads of comic situations. The emotions in the movie are sincere and the soundtrack is just beautiful. Besides being a nice and intelligent entertainment, this movie gives a true lesson in tolerance. The story also highlights the forgotten Kurdish issue.
