Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThis film is inspired by a true love story. Married since 1990, the real David & Layla now live in Paris. They flew to New York to meet the cast and the crew during the production of this film. The real Layla designed Layla's wedding dress. She is the guest with green eyes and dark hair who is one of the Kurdish dancing women in bright golden orange gilet, during the wedding. Her husband, the real David, plays himself as the new vasectomy patient who answers to his real name, David Ruby, and gets the appointment with Dr. Jacobson.
Featured review
sweet and funny
I thought David and Leyla was a sweet and funny film depicting real life romance. In today's ever increasing cross cultural world this film supports divergent points of views in religion, family dynamics, sexuality and many other important issues affecting today's modern society. Very good acting from all the cast members. Congratulations on a film well done. At times the movie took too long to get to the substance of a particular scene. But, for the most part the flow of the film was good and it kept me, the audience, entertained. I would recommend this movie to friends and family and would enjoy seeing more movies on the screen depicting multi-cultural unions.
