I recently found a sweet little movie on my Netflix instant Queue, Sabah: A Love Story. It’s about a Muslim woman who lives in Canada and falls in love with a blonde haired, blue eyes non-Muslim man. I decided to add it because my A loves him some romantic movies (he is begging me to watch Ghost with him but I am not having any of that.) He decided it wasn’t for him because the leading lady was not attractive, so I watched it on my own. It was very sweet, dealt with some of the issues many of us deal with and overall I would recommend it.
Ahh, how wonderfully bonding it must be! Wow! Well, i have to save this and put into the list that i am gathering about intercultural couples on film. if you have anymore favorites or not-so-favorite, please pass them along with your critiques along.
I watched this by myself one afternoon and thought it was lovely. Sabah lives such an isolated life until she decides to venture out of her comfort zone. It also deals with interfamily gender-issues and obligations to elderly parents. A very worthwhile film.
